1992 Chevrolet Lumina APV from North America - Comments

The starter went last October.

Water pump replaced 3 years ago and fuse lines the day after.

Brake lines were replaced several years ago, but we suspect someone cut them.

The back of a rear passenger seat was cracked.

The pull out cup holder/ash tray has broken off.

Cigarette lighter has been pulled out thanks to the teenage drivers of the owners.

This is a great, reliable vehicle (more reliable than the owner who keeps leaving the interior lights on thus draining the battery).

It is perfect for transporting the four-legged family members as the rear seats can be removed and their anchors can be used to tie down travel crates which is next to impossible in another family members '03 Pontiac Montana.

And while it is not a sports car, this baby has great pick up and power.

However, bench seats would have been better for long distance travel with children who often like to lie down and sleep.

Hi there

I have owned a Chev Lumina APV since 1992. I bought it new from the showroom. I bought it because I needed the room.

The vehicle is no doubt the best I've ever owned. I have almost 300.000 Km on it and the engine and transmission have never had a problem. Some cosmetic things have been a problem, but overall this van has never broken down.

It still looks good to. I would recommend this van highly.

Thanks.

Brian.

My father bought this car new in 1992. Since then, no major problems. Since the car is made of some sort of plastic, there is no rust. The competitors at the time were the Ford Aerostar and the Plymouth/Dodge Voyager/Caravan. Here in Montreal, we never see Aerostar anymore, and the old Caravans are rare and rusty. We keep seeing Luminas around.

The engine my father chose was not powerful at all, and it has been a problem with a lot of equipment in the back. The car won't go faster than 75 MPH.

Honestly, this car was probably the best car available at that time, and with good care it could be running for another 10 years: no doubt about it!
