MY 1993 GEO STORM HAS BEEN STALLING LATELY. IT IS TOTALLY SPORADIC AND DOES IT WHEN I AM PULLING OUT, WHEN IT IS IDLING, AND WHEN I AM ON A FREEWAY GOING ALONG AT A CONSTANT SPEED. THIS HAS PUT ME IN A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION A NUMBER OF TIMES AND HAS SEVERELY SHAKEN ME. IT WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE
... OF AN INTERSECTION, AND LUCKILY ALL 6 TIMES THIS HAPPENED NO ONE WAS COMING EITHER WAY. I NO LONGER DRIVE MY CAR, AND I AM AFRAID TO SELL IT DUE TO THE FACT THIS WILL HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE. I HAD CHECKED EVERYTHING I COULD THINK OF UNTIL I READ A ARTICLE ABOUT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE BEING BAD IN 89-93 GEO STORMS, ISUZU IMPULSES, AND ASUNA SUNFIRES. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A MAJOR RECALL PUT FORTH TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU.*JBRead more

Incident date: Oct 13, 2002
ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2002 MY HUSBAND WAS TAKING OUR 3 CHILDREN HOME AND HE HAD ONLY GOT 1/2 MILE FROM THE HOUSE AND GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55MPH THE CAR JUST CUT OFF. LEAVING MY HUSBAND AND 15 YEAR OLD SON JUST SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART, AND THANK GOD THERE WAS
... NO-ONE BEHIND HIM. NO LIGHTS OR WARNINGS CAME ON AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. THEY WERE STRANDED FOR 4 HOURS IN THE ROAD. THANK GOD THEY HAD NOT MADE IT TO THE 4 LANE HIGHWAY THAT THEY WERE HEADED FOR OR CROSSING A BUSY INTERSECTION. I JUST KNOW THAT GOD HAD TO BE WITH THEM. THEY WERE ABLE TO FINALLY PUSH THE CAR OFF THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AFTER GETTING SOMEONE TO PICK MY HUSBAND UP AND BRING HIM HOME, HE AND A NEIGHBOR WENT BACK TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. AFTER REPLACING EVERYTHING THAT THEY COULD, AND NOTHING HELPED, WE CALLED A WREAKER TO TAKE THE CAR IN. IT HAD TO BE PUT ON A FLAT BED TO BE TAKEN IN. IT WAS TAKEN TO A GARGAGE. WHERE AFTER PUTTING IT ON A MACHINE AND CHECKING THE ECUS/COMPUTER IT WAS FOUND IT HAD FAILED. NOW AFTER 4 DAYS WE ARE STILL NOT ABLE TO FIND A NEW COMPUTER BOARD TO BE PUT IN THE CAR, NOT EVEN THROUGH THE DEALER BECAUSE NO-ONE KNOWS HOW TO PROGRAM THE BOARDS. SO, AFTER CALLING SEVERAL PLACES THEY WERE ABLE TO FIND A USED ONE IN NORTH CAROLINA WHICH IS BEING SENT DOWN BY TRUCK. STILL NOT KNOWING IF THIS IS GOING TO WORK, HOWEVER THE WORST PART IS, IF THIS IS A USED ONE WHEN WILL IT GO OUT? AND, WHERE WILL IT HAPPEN, WITH NO WARNING AND GOING ANY SPEED IT WILL JUST STOP, GO DEAD AND NOT RESTART..... I REALLY BELIVE SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE IF NOT ALREADY INNOCENT PEOPLE DIE. OR CHILDREN GET KILLED. JUST THINK IF YOU WERE GOING DOWN A 6 LANE HIGHWAY AND ANYWHERE FROM 55-70 AND THE CAR JUST STOP AND CARS ALL AROUND YOU AND BEHIND YOU. AND, THE CAR NOT START BACK UP OR EVEN GET A CHANCE TO GET THE CAR STARTED BEFORE SOME ONE RUNS INTO YOU AND KILLS YOU, THEM, AND ANYONE ELSE AROUND...Read more
