1998 Chevrolet Venture LS review from North America
"My wife is very pleased with it, would buy another"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear door strap broke.
Driver side power window loose in track.
Front headlight lost cover - entire assembly needed replacement ($300)
General comments?
Overall, Venture has been very reliable. Other than headlight noted above, no maintenance beyond required beyond routine items. At 100K miles, still has original exhaust. Optional rear seat captains chairs were well worth the money for our two teenage passengers.
Comfortable for long trips. Very convenient to remove fold or remove rear seats for hauling stuff home from the lumber yard.
