1996 Geo Tracker review from North America

Check engine light burnt out when it was bought.

Erg valve replaced.

Expensive Transmission leak, $1200 fix.

Top leaks and its brand new.

Transmission starting to slip.

Starter went out at 100,000 miles and had to be replaced.

A/C hose blew out and was $100 to replace.

Fan switch doesn't always work.

Burns out the interior light every 500 miles or so.

Hoses burst randomly.

Oil leaks.

Locks freeze in the winter.

Stalls out on hot days when in reverse.

Power steering leaks.

This is the most uncomfortable car I've ever been in. The seats have no back support and you can feel every bump in the road. Every time You hit a bump the dash board squeaks.

The top was bought last year and every time it rains hard the seats get wet and it smells like wet dog inside. It can take DAYS to dry.

It has the worst handling. The steering is loose and jittery. There is no acceleration and the gas mileage should be a lot better for the size engine it has. Snow is a night mare. It just slides across the top of the ice, and with no ABS pumping is a must. I've been stuck in numerous driveways in the winter (including mine).

The A/c works sporadically and is hard to keep on. The switch only works well in high and none of the other settings work. And on very hot days if the A/C is on it sometimes stalls out when I put it in reverse.

We bought the car in South Carolina and it had no rust. After 2 Ohio winters and constant washings it has already began to rust.

I will give the heater credit. It will bur you out of the car in the winter.

This car has also never really left me stranded. While it may be junk it will always start (though sometimes it dosnt want to).
