1988 GMC Safari review from North America
"The GMC Safari is a piece of crap!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First let me just say that when I first bought this van, it needed a major repair on the engine components, along with a timing chain and belt!!!
The ignition switch and ignition lock needed to be replaced, and it also needing new keys right after the first big repair!!!
The heater hose popped off, leaking antifreeze, and caused the van to overheat!!!
All doors would not open from the inside!!!
Washer fluid leaked out of the reservoir!!!
Engine leaked oil so bad that I had to put in 2 quarts of oil a day!!!
General comments?
This van is a piece of crap hell hole!!!
Does GM get you from point A to B???!!!
However GM is known for powerful engines, and GM is also known for horrible brakes!!!
