"One of a kind"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Check engine light comes on several

times. I had to go back to the dealer

several times until they finally fixed

the problem. It was a clogged vacuum

line inside the cylinder head. This

happened at 120,000 miles.

Air-conditioner evaporator clogged up.

I replaced the evaporator. 150,000 miles.

Brass on the starter needed replacement

at 150,000 miles.

Catalytic converter needed replacement

at 75,000 miles. It was rattling.

General comments?

The van is a very good means of

transportation.

A bit underpowered. I am considering

installing a nitrous oxide system to

boost the performance.

I was amazed on how it handle well.

We used it on our trip to the mountains

and it took on the curves pretty well

with minimal roll despite it's tall

profile.
