1995 GMC Safari SLT review from North America
"A great family hauler"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I purchased my safari mini-van new in 1995. I have been quite happy with it until now.
When I reached 102,000 miles the following went bad:
Anti-lock light came on.$1500.00 to repair.
Rear door will not open, I guess the hinge is out of line. Removed the middle row so I could store my packages.
General comments?
With regular maintenance I was hoping to get at least 15 years before shelling out money this type of money.
