1996 Geo Metro from North America - Comments

If I listed all the things that went wrong with this car I could write a novel:

Water pump went as soon as I got it off the lot

head gasket went 500 miles later

had to replace radiator

whole emission system crashed

hard to find replacement parts for instance we needed a caliper bolt so we went to CHEVY and inquired, they didn't have it didn't even know if they made it still b/c everything is manufactured over seas when they did get a hold of the bolt the wanted something like $25 for it, forget about going to a junk yard b/c they scrap Geos pretty much right away.

Then heres the kicker after everything got fixed finally, the engine block cracked, and nowhere, I mean NOWHERE can you find a replacement 1.3 engine without going rebuilt (priced between $1,200-1,500). the car resale isn't worth it.

This car is an expensive P.O.S. and the gas mileage isn't all that great either I only averaged about 32mpg and my new 1993 3.8 sable wagon gets 28 mpg so tell me small crappy little car with no room or nice size wagon that's safer and has more room, and deffiantly more power?

Waste of $$ and time.

Crappy braking and forget about pulling out on a regular road you have to wait for everyone to go pass before you can even think about it.

Small interior w/o power options. Only really made for one person (even the 4 door sedan like I had)

HA HA!

Yet another well informed reviewer that bought a vehicle with well over 100k miles from a shady dealer ship selling a neglected and abused car. There a dime a dozen around here.
