Front Suspension Problems of GEO Tracker

The contact owns a 1999 Geo Tracker. The contact stated that the front suspension cross member is rotted out and corroded from the inside. This type of vehicle was manufactured with front cross members designed and made by Suzuki, which rust from the inside out due to insufficient corrosion protection. Nhtsa action # ea06018 was referenced. The current and failure mileages were 69,300.

Bumper bolts failed(3), in addition, 1 grille bolt, and 1 manifold bolt has completly fallen off. The dealer told me "my license plate was loose". This Tracker is losing bolts at an alarming rate. The left front suspension developed a severe "rattle"at any and all speeds. The strut assembly was replaced, but a rattle is still noticable over uneven surfaces. I am afraid to drive this vehicle on a long-duration trip.

Transmission-could not get car into first gear and third gear grind on the up & down shift. Replaced both gears. Two months later happened again so transmission was replaced. Three months later same problem with first, fourth and reverse. Dealership replaced the complete clutch assembly. Ac-the ac is not a big enough unit for the vehicle. Have to leave it on high at all times to cool the back seat. Suspension- the vehicle is all over the road. Very hard to handle in the wind, rain or even any speed over 55 mph. Bumper- all the fasteners holding the back molding on fell out.

Vehicle loss of control, driver feels vehicle has the potential to roll over.
