1995 Geo Tracker review from North America
"I wish they still made trackers, because I loved all three of mine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have only had two problems with my tracker. I just snapped my clutch cable,where the cable meets the clutch. The second problem is more of a nuisance,than a big problem. When I purchased the vehicle, someone disconnected the check engine light. The car hesitates a little when backing up on a hill, or when turning corners. I thought it needed a tuneup, but that was not it. Now I`m trying to figure out if it's a computer sensor, or bad fuel injectors. Other than these problems, I have had great luck with it. The windows need to be adjusted, and my soft top could use replacing, but I love it. This is my third tracker. When I get rid of this one, I want to try the newer style. In 1999 Chevy/Geo designed a newer version Tracker.It`s too bad they discontinued the Tracker in 2003.This vehicle is unbelievable in the snow, and mud. It takes a serious beating in the woods,4-wheeling.I would recommend this vehicle to anyone. If your looking for good pickup, make sure you get a 5 speed. Automatics are slow. The only thing that bothers me, is the lack of security.I`m dying to put a speaker system, but I`m afraid of getting robbed. I also worry about getting struck from the rear, by another car, because there`s basically, no rear end on this vehicle.
General comments?
This car is very fun. The top comes off in summer, and 4-wheel drive is great in winter. However, theres not a lot of cargo room, and on windy days on highway, it feels like it`s being pushed a little.
