1996 Geo Tracker review from North America
"I think this car is worth the money I invested"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the battery once.
My heater went on the blink at 120K.
I replaced the timing belt as suggested (85k+) in the manual---nothing was wrong with it.
The convertible soft top is finally showing serious signs of threads fraying at 139K.
General comments?
I cannot believe how long this car has lasted. I have the oil changed religiously (every 2K).
I still think this is the cutest SUV out there---other than its big brother the Land rover.
