1994 GMC Safari XT review from North America
"High performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went out at 184000.
Paint job has peeled.
Radiator replacement at 250000.
General comments?
Very good stable van.
Easy to drive.
Easy to maneuver.
Reliable through everything.
The van would be just like new now if GMC would honor their recall on the pain job.
This van has gotten me through thick and thin.
The cabin is very comfortable, the upholstery, carpeting, panels have weathered through 3 children on long trips very nicely.
I can customize the seating to my hauling needs the two back seats are removable.
I hope to be driving this van at least 4 more years or more.
If I could just get GMC to honor their recall on the paint job I would be a GMC customer for life.
