Comments
"We purchased this van off a lease
return, upon picking it up at the dealer we realized the left
rear passenger seat belt buckle didnot engage. It was repaired.
The right wind shield washer nozzle became dis connected.The
front disc brake pad clip came loose and made a squealling noise.
The vehicle was recalled for a slush shield on the engine and
a shield on the rear heater hoses.At 55000 kms the left rear
brake wheel cylinder was leaking also the rotors on the front
brakes have developed a slight warp. The vehicle was fitted with
a remote starting unit which has been subject to cause of the
vehicle stalling while driving.These ARE NOT RECOMENDED BY GENERAL
MOTORS to be installed on this type of vehicle. ALL small problems
some due to mfg design others due to additional equipment not
recomended by the mfg.To close this is probably the nicest vehicle
we have ever owned."
