1990 Chevrolet Van G-20 Cargo review from North America
"Loads of power / loads of problems!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electrical problems of all sorts: turn signals wouldn't work.
All indicators and functions light up all the time on the dash. Both turn indicators constantly lit. Headlight indicator stays on.
Intermittent wipers erratic and slow.
Wiring inside multi-function lever (turn signal) overheats and started to smoke.
Short in wiring from radio to speaker.
Blower motor intermittent.
Washer pump weak.
Several problems with anti-lock brakes.
Occasional hard starting and very rough idle.
Almost constant exhaust steam year 'round.
Takes forever to warm up in winter.
General comments?
In spite of all the problems, this van is a real powerful and smooth rider.
I would rather drive this cross country than my old Caprice.
The seats are well contoured and provide the right support.
Is there anyone with a GM vehicle that doesn't have pulse windshield wiper problems???
