Questions About 1991 Geo Prizm’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Geo? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Geo tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Prizm’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Prizm is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Prizm transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Geo Prizm’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Geo, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Geo Prizm leak transmission fluid? Yes. Geo Prizm transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Where can I get my  Geo Prizm transmission fixed? When your Prizm transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Should I avoid driving my Geo Prizm if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Prizm to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
