Had 1997 Tracer for six years, OK car
first 3-4 yrs, then bent a rod at 110k
miles, dealer estimated cost to repair
at $5000+, said if it was not rod then
was a damaged crankshft as that was
also a common problem of these cars.
Car was babied for all six years, oil
change every 3000 miles etc, last three
years had to put $900+ into repairs.
If shopping for used … economy car with
60,000 miles then stay away from the
Tracer. it is not a reliable car.
