1996 Geo Tracker LSI review from North America
"Love my Geo Tracker!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
For the past 4 years, I've had trouble with my Tracker cutting out during slow stops. For example, I'll be pulling up to a red light, and as the engine goes to idle, it cuts off. Or I'll slow down for a turn and then it will cut off. I can either use the key ignition or "jump-start" it to get it going. I've had the Tracker in the shop 6 times (4 times at the Chevrolet dealership) to correct this "elusive" problem. They have readjusted the Throttle Adjustment several times, and eventually the same problem starts to happen again. Has anyone else had this problem?
General comments?
Love my Geo Tracker!! This is my second one, we live near the beach and take all the tops off, except the main shell.
The best thing about the Tracker is it has a "car" feeling instead of a bare "jeep" feeling about.
Like the convenience of being able to flip the front top back without removing the rest of the windows.
