1985 GMC Safari from North America - Comments

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I have over 250,000kms on my van and I only just recently replaced all the hoses and a signal bulb. I am beginning to see rear seal problems, but they are still minor so for a vehicle so run, she runs good.

General comments?

I am the 3rd owner already but we all must have taken good care of this van because she runs good and I haven't had too many incidents with it. (other than just regular things to replace such as tires, light bulbs, oil, filters etc.)

Good vehicle.

I started driving an '85 Safari last December with 145,000 miles on it. After repairing and replacing minor parts particularly the intake and exhaust system, but also brakes and belts. I am amazed at how well the vehicle handles is aligned and performs. I had the feeling during a pleasure drive that I was driving a new car. The biggest problem I have with it is the mechanism in the drivers seat is defective. I am looking for another seat, but I don't want to pay the four hundred dollars ask for in Georgia. I like your review enjoyed reading about our van and I will return to see if you have added new information. Thank you much, Coach.
