Overview & Reviews
After a heavy makeover for 1996, changes for 1997 are limited. Convertibles get a standard fold-and-stow rear bench seat along with an enhanced evaporative emissions system. All Trackers can be painted Sunset Red Metallic or Azurite Blue Metallic for the first time.
- Low price, cute styling, excellent visibility, performs well off-road
- Underpowered engine, small cargo area, tippy handling, convertible top is difficult to manage

BRAKES SUCK!!! - 1997 Geo Tracker
By lukebecker - April 25 - 1:46 pmI bought this for about 6K and Hated it. The 4x4 worked ok, but is sits low to the ground so when I tried to go over snow banks (WI) I would get hung up and which the 4 wheel couldnt pull me off of. I am 6 foot tall and talk about rough sitting in this thing. My leg was always pushing on the center counsel thing. No cruise. didnt hold its value for crap. And I (who has been driving sticks for his whole life) "Burnt the clutch out" before the car hit 100K. Only car that "I" have ever "broke."

Dont Count on This Vehicle - 1997 Geo Tracker
By Dont Buy This - December 18 - 2:00 amMany problems with this vehicle. Even though it was covered by the warranty for the first 50,000 miles I had the radio go out, the a/c quit working, the cassette player broke and they refused to fix it, due to the daytime running headlights-the headlights were constantly being replaced. Right after 50,000 miles, the starter and ignition went out and also the transmission.
