1997 Chevrolet Venture review from North America
"I will never buy another Chevrolet product!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
ERG sensor replaced twice.
Both headlights replaced due to lens cover falling off (passenger side replaced 2 times in 6 months period)
Passenger power window stopped working.
Thermostat replaced.
Intake manifold valve replaced.
Water pump replaced.
Buttons #1 and #4 burned out on radio.
Rear washer stopped dispensing fluid.
General comments?
The van had good performance and reliability when it was new, but once I hit 125,000, it has been a downhill spiral.
I have spent well over $2300.00 in the past 6 months. I should have traded sooner for something better.
My 1990 Honda with 232,000 miles is more dependable than this vehicle!
