1998 GMC Van Montana review from North America
"My next car will be from Japan!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The low speed interior fan modulator went. That was $260.
The rear air compressor went.
A water leak occurs at the top seal of the passenger side door. Leaks only in a heavy driving wind and rain.
The ABS brake sensor went. I was quoted $550 to replace and perhaps another $1800 if this wasn't the part they believe to be the cause.
The cylinder head is cracked. Quoted $1200 to replace.
General comments?
The van looks great. However it's right is very hard. Able to feel every bump in the road. This may be the new tires or it may be the suspension.
