In september of 2013 I noticed oil in coolant reservoir. Took to the mechanic. Closer inspection showed head gaskets were destroyed. Had the head gasket replaced and the coolant flushed out as well as changed all coolant hoses, water pump, and thermostat to the tune of $900.00 dollars. Vehicle only has 84000 miles on it. Purchased new in 1999. Used the vehicle daily for four months when the temperature gage started fluctuating from hot to cold and found there was very little heat. Vehicle would then idle rough. Brought back to the mechanic and it appears the same issue IS occurring. You've got to be kidding me. Another $800-$1000 no way. Mechanic advises this IS common for ventures. Thanks chevy looks like I'll be shopping for a honda. *tr

My wife smelled gasoline upon entering the car on october 7, 2012. I checked under the car from where the smell was coming from, and saw gasoline dripping from a pipe near the gas tank. I brought the car to the local chevy dealership. I had to replace four fuel and evaporation lines due to corrosion. It cost me over $1,000 to replace these lines. I feel very fortunate that I was able to correct this problem before a disaster could have occurred. I could have been driving on the highway with gasoline leaking onto my exhaust pipe. I think that these vans should be recalled immediately before someone IS seriously injured. It IS an absolute disgrace that chevy would put in fuel lines that had any possibility of corroding. They should be made aware of this serious problem and correct it immediately. *tr

Now at 112,000 miles and suspect that it IS in need of replacement again. The lifters are also making noise. The mechanics are telling me that this IS a very common problem. Gm needs to take responsibility for this design flaw in their engine. The government needs to step in and order a recall. *Ln

When entering an intersection after leaving a stop sign the traction control light and ABS light on the dash came on and the van began jerking and lurching in intersection unable to move through intersection for atleast 10 seconds before the lurching stopped. Always happens when coming from a stop such as a red light, when entering street from side road. Happens intermittently, more often when engine IS cold. Have come close to being hit many times, other drivers have had to slam their brakes to stop from hitting me because it can lurch and jerk not going anywhere for up to 30 seconds at times while van IS in intersection or entering a road. ABS motor was found to be weak, but mechanic cannot find problem with the traction control system in order to fix it. *tr

Dexcool antifreeze deteriorated my intake gaskets of my 99 chevy venture, sludged up my engine and caused my car to overheat and leak dexcool continuously. The dealer just told me sorry but it will be about 1500 to 2000 to repair. That antifreeze was supposed to be never changed and work until 150K miles. My van IS a leaking reliability problem that could strand us on the road because of the dex cool they put in the factory. There will be a recall if you investigate this. The problem IS all over the web and there IS a class action suit about it in california. It affects hundreds of thousands of people. *tr

Subject vehicles are available with an optional power sliding door.the interior handle IS oriented in the vertical position in the door panel and lines up at the elbow level when the occupant IS seated in the 2nd-row outboard position.if the occupant holds the interior handle in the thumb up position during power-assisted opening, the arm/wrist can be push back with force against the 2nd-row bucket seat or captain's chair seat back creating a risk of injury (other seating configurations have ample seat to door clearance to avoid entrapment of the lower arm).among the 103 total reports, there were 102 alleged injuries including arm/wrist, thumb and shoulder injuries.a count of injuries reveals that 76 injuries were a fractured or a broken arm/wrist requiring an immobilizing cast for four-to-six weeks.all injuries involve the right side power sliding door.the left side power sliding door IS on far fewer vehicles, but more importantly, it produces less force.gm notified the agency by letter dated december 21, 2004, that it will recall model year 1997 though early 2005 gm u-van vehicles equipped with a right side power sliding door and with 2nd-row bucket seats or captain chairs (nhtsa recall #04v597).as part of the recall remedy, gm will replace the door handle with a flush mounted handle that will prevent an occupant from grasping the handle with the palm between the handle and door panel (thumb up orientation) and thus eliminate the potential for arm/wrist entrapment.this investigation IS closed.

On november 18, 2002, odi opened a preliminary evaluation (pe02-086) to evaluate allegations of rear axle trailing arm failures in the subject vehicles (u-van) which included two reporting crashes.on april 9, 2003, odi upgraded pe02-086 to an engineering analysis (ea03-005) to continue its examination of the issue. The trailing arm design in these vehicles has been used in the u-van from my 1997 through the present.the gm analysis concluded that the subject trailing arms could crack or buckle if they were damaged during assembly, pre-delivery handling, or subjected to certain service related abuse conditions such as improper towing or jacking.analysis of odi and gm data has identified 19 incidents of rear axle trailing arm failures in the subject vehicles.there have been no new reports to odi or gm in the last 12 months and only one new complaint in the last 21 months. Due to the low complaint rate and the absence of a continuing trend in reported failures, a safety-related defect has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.accordingly, this investigation IS closed. The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that a safety-related defect does not exist. The agency will take further action if warranted by the circumstances. For additional information, see the attached closing report.

The trailing arm design in these vehicles IS used in the u-vans from my 1997 through 2003.according to gm, the subject trailing arms can crack or buckle if they have been damaged during assembly, pre-delivery handling, or certain service related abuse conditions (e.g., improper towing or jacking).gm identified a parts handling concern that was causing some trailing arms to be damaged prior to installation.to address this concern, gm implemented changes to the shipping containers from january 1999 through september 1999. Eight (8) of the reported incidents in my 1997-99 u-vans, including the two crashes, occurred in the last 2 years.this investigation has been upgraded to an engineering analysis to assess the trend and safety risk associated with the alleged defect.
