At 100,000 the tail pipe rotted away, but it was a cheap and easy fix.
I also had the heater coil replaced at 125,000, because it seemed to take a long time to heat up in the winter, but that fixed the problem.
This car has exceeded my expectations. I love my car.
I have had no major problems.
It gets tossed a bit in the wind.
Handles great in the snow.
I love my tracker also, it is a 1996 but I have one small problem. My service engine light keeps coming on, it reads EGR problem. I replacd the EGR valve, but approximately 3 days later the light came on again. The only way to get it off is to pull the main fuse under the hood (or the computer machine) but within a few days its on again, has anyone else had this problem? If so please help!!!

If your engine light comes on with an EGR code it doesn't necesseraly mean your EGR valve is bad. There is piping and fittings involved in the EGR system as well and sometimes these can become clogged with carbon. Replacing the EGR valve doesn't affect the state of these things at all. You need to find the EGR tube on your engine, remove it, clean the inside of it with a top engine cleaner or other carbon remover, clean out the port where the EGR tube enters the engine, and then re-assemble the EGR system. This will almost definitely get rid of your EGR problem.
