I own a 1998 Safari van, it is the biggest piece of junk I have ever owned. I am very surprised that GM allowed this van to be built.. multiple problems with brakes, window motors, emission test.
Just try and change the spark plugs, I dare you.
Front end issues.
Ball joints.
Multiple sensor issues.
Power mirrors that don't work.
A/C unit works sometimes.
Wow. I could go on.
I would get rid of it, but I am still paying for it. Not to mention the bills for repairs.

I have a 1998 GMC Safari. I bought it new in 1997. Every year we travel in it from Indiana to Yellowstone and/or the Grand Canyon. It now has 250,000+ miles on it. I replaced the transmission at about 100,000 miles. Apparently, there was a defect in that particular transmission and I replaced it with a Jasper rebuild. When Jasper rebuilt the tranny they made the repairs that would cause the problem. GM wouldn't even admit an issue though. But Jasper fixed the glitch.
That is the only repair I have made other than normal wear and tear items and routine PM stuff. It really blows me away to see people complain about replacing mechanical parts. That is part of owning a vehicle.
After viewing all the problems with the GMC van, and the problems that we all have had, is it not Great to see GM going bankrupt due to their lax attitude towards customers and GM's poor quality.
