1994 Geo Metro 1.3 from North America
Summary:
Outstanding bargain for how it keeps going
Faults:
Air conditioner quit at 35,000, and had to replace compressor.
Problem keeping alternator belt tight to prevent squealing.
Normal wear and replacement of brake pads, city driving causes faster wear-out of pads.
Driver window roller problem.
General Comments:
Car has no serious mechanical problems.
Excellent car for running around town.
Daughter now drives and it is a great first car. I plan on keeping until it falls apart.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

It is kinda silly to purchase a car used with over 100,000 miles on it, then complain of any of its mechanical troubles. Given the cars age and mileage when purchased I find it great that it still gets so good economy! What a great car the Geo Metro must be! It's a pity Chevy killed it. I will be looking for a Metro, now for my second car.
