1991 Geo Tracker review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission went out at 73000 miles. The engine followed at 77000. The horn never worked and the windshield washer fluid tube rotted through. The front axle was missing a spring for the 4 wheel drive, so it didn't work. I found that out after I got stuck in the mud. The rear plastic window was so cloudy that it had to be replaced.
General comments?
It is fun to drive when it works. It always starts when cold, but starts hard when warmed up. I had the transmission and engine replaced in the hope that it will last a while. Many reviews say that it is dependable, but this one has had major problems.
