The locks on this car are a problem. Within three weeks of buying this car, I already cannot open the driver's side or the hatchback. I wonder if anyone else has had so many problems with the locks?
This car does not have a lot of power, as I think everyone knows, but my Dodge Aries felt sluggish by comparison. The car feels solid on the road and it handles well. Cutting in and out of rush hour traffic is easy.
I hear the crash test results are good, but I still wouldn't want to be in an accident in a Geo. It is a tin can on wheels and I think I would be squelched flat as a bug.
Someone said that these cars are ugly, but I disagree. They have a unique look and they are more stylish than most of the clunky new vehicles being sold nowadays. My girlfriend's parents recommended this car to me (they've got a '92) and say that they've had almost no problems in 10 years (170,000 kms).
I am only in my first "real" career job and still have a relatively low income, so this car's fuel efficiency wins it lots of points in my books.
Mine has trouble opening the driver side lock. Try squirting silicone lube inside of all of them.
