2000 Chevrolet Astro Max Package review from North America
"Worst car in North America - Garbage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Armrests replaced.
HVAC replaced.
Multiple bulbs replaced.
Brake rotors warped.
Radiator blew.
Transmission still shifts abruptly.
Dash has a rattle.
Rear seats squeak.
Front end damage due to stones, that other vehicles don't seem to suffer from as badly (cheap paint job on the Astro?).
Engine coolant leaks.
Windshield wipers broke.
Rear door trim fell off, drivers side B trim loose.
Constantly having to tighten the rear swing doors.
Rear door latch fell off.
Sliding door lock seized, the list goes on.
General comments?
Absolutely garbage.
Front floor has humps.
Plastic accelerator.
Goes through gas like crazy, revs its guts out to keep up with traffic.
Very poor interior materials.
Constant headaches: rear doors have exposed hinges, seats don't stay in place moving back and forth in their position while driving, head room is well below average, seat cushions are way too short, needless to say the complaint list is huge.
