1998 Chevrolet Venture Base Model review from North America

"Have your van inspected before buying"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I am a wholesaler and in the hope of making a good earning on a Chevy Venture, it actually turned out that I took a good hit. While the truck looked awesome what lied beneath the skin was another matter. I had sold the thing and after the costumer got it inspected her mechanic found $2500.00 worth of repairs. Not bad for a truck I paid $2500.00 and later sold $3000.00 after repairing it a much lower cost thanks to a buddy mechanic of mine. Still I lost a good deal. I had to change two outer tie-rod ends, two balls joints, front brakes---which wear prematurely, the O-ring, manifold, and the rack and pinion. I am not sure I want to buy one of these again. Hey everybody out there, go HONDA, TOYOTA or NISSAN. They are reliable and costlier to buy, but you won't spend your Saturday afternoons at Rick's corner service station

General comments?

Too bad the van looks nice and rides well. There is lots of space and the ergonomics were well plotted out, however get your wallet ready.
