1992 Chevrolet Astro LX review from North America
"This van has been the most reliable and durable vehicle I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The fuel pump has been replaced twice.
The ignition module has been replaced three times.
The anti lock braking system broke down after 350 000 km.
The door locks seize up and one needed to be replaced.
The rocker panel on the driver's side rusted out after 425 000 km.
General comments?
After 450 000 km, this vehicle has the original motor, transmission and cooling system.
Even though it is built on a truck chassis, it still drives and handles exceptionally well.
The engine burns very little oil and gets reasonable mileage for the year and engine size.
This has been an excellent family vehicle, which has made several 4000 + km round trips to Florida and the Maritime provinces.
