Faults:

Fuel guage failed at 20,000 miles.

General Comments:

This is a serious truck.

More powerful than any van in its class.

Do not mistake the Astro AWD for a mom's car for the kids, it's a truck!

Like a Chevy, many little things do break, and yes it's annoying, however the overall dependability is amazing.

I was hit by a Volvo broadside on the sliding door with 2 kids in the van. The Volvo was totaled and the Astro needed $300 dollars of paint work. The sliding door is not quite the same, but my children never knew how serious it could have been!

Thank you Chevy for that extra steel beam in the door.

General Comments:

Seats are comfortable. That is truly the only positive comment I have on this vehicle.

The window issue is serious one that GM needs to address and does not. I took my van to have the windows repaired and was told he has had 3 vans in for the same thing in the last 6 months! That is a high percentage being that we live in a rural area with a total 3,000 in our community! And I have also run into tons of people who have experienced the exact same window problems with other Chevy models.

As for the rest of the problems, I'm sure it's wear and tear, but with owning 2 previous vehicles, Fords, I've NEVER had a feeling of undependability EVER with my other vehicles.

Faults:

The Intermittent wipers tend to go on as they please. This is an annoying at times when you need to use it.

When I first purchased it from the dealer was making a bad noise on the highway over 60MPH, but they fixed the problem.

General Comments:

Lots of power, Superior towing capacity and lots of spacious room inside.

The driver side seat is pretty comfortable, but that's because I do not have captains chairs which are better.

Once you own this van, people will ask you for favors due to its spacious interior, take it from me.

Faults:

(1) My drivers side window motor went bad, (2) the passenger side window button went bad. (3) The fuel gage reads full all the time, (3) hatch lifts went bad (4) windshield wipers stop when you are using them and then start again, (5) the fan speed control button stopped working, and (6) the inside door reflector's fell out. and this van is garage kept, only has 29000 miles on it and is a second car.

General Comments:

This van for the miles I have on it the new shape it is in and the way that I take care of my cars.

It is the biggest piece of crap with 29000 miles that I ever owned. I would never buy another GM product again.
