CPSC: I1480097A. 1999 CHEVY VENTURE. CONSUMER STATED THAT SHE HAS A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. *LN

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHEVROLET VENTURE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACTS HOME. A MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL LINE AND FUEL TANK MELTED DUE TO THE EXHAUST. THE CONTACT PATCHED UP THE FUEL TANK AND THE FUEL LINE SINCE IT WAS DEFECTIVE. THE MECHANIC STATED THE FUEL TANK AND THE FUEL LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

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

PURCHASED VEHICLE BRAND NEW. MANIFOLD GASKET LEAK AT 35,000 MILES REPAIRED BY GM. FAILED AGAIN AT 70,000 MILES BUT GM WOULDN'T COVER THE COST, PAID $900 OUT OF POCKET. 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

I OWN A 99 CHEVY VENTURE THE PROBLEM IS THE TEMP GAUGE GOES BACK AND FORTH FROM HOT TO COLD I WAS TOLD THE HEAD GASKETS WERE BAD. AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THAT THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING WITH A MAJORITY OF THESE VEHICLES WHY ISN'T GM DOING A RECALL. *TR

BALL BEARING ON VEHICLE REPLACED 2007, NOW 2008 WON'T PASS INSPECTION MUST BE REPLACED AGAIN, PLUS THE ENGINE MANIFOLD. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHEVROLET VENTURE. THE CONTACT LOST HER KEY TO THE VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTED TO USE THE PASS KEY TO MOVE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE STARTED, BUT THEN SHUT OFF. SHE MADE THREE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE CONTACT FOUND THE ORIGINAL KEY AND ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE. THE WHEEL WOULD NOT MOVE AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. SHE INSERTED THE KEY AND HEARD A BEEPING SOUND, WHICH INDICATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS FUNCTIONING.

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

THE PASSENGER POWER SLIDING DOOR OF MY 1999 CHEVY VENTURE STOPPED WORKING IN THE CLOSED POSITION. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE HORN QUIT, AND THE LOW COOLANT LIGHT BLINKS ON FREQUENTLY. A LOCAL MECHANIC SAID THAT THERE WAS A BULATIN OUT TO REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER ON THIS VEHICLE, AND THAT IT WAS A PROGRAMMING ERROR. I AM DISABLED AND I DEPEND ON THIS DOOR FOR MY WHEELCHAIR RAMP, ETC. *TR

TL*- THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REVERSING OUT THE DRIVEWAY, THE SLIDING DOOR OPENED ON HER 1999 CHEVROLET VENTURE. WHEN THE CONTACT STOPPED THE VEHICLE TO CLOSE THE SLIDING DOOR, THE DOOR FELL OFF THE TRACK. TWO OF THE DOOR HINGES HAD FALLEN OFF. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000 MILES.

INTAKE GASKETS LEAKING, UPPER AND LOWER. CAUSED OIL TO BE CONTAMINATED WITH ANTI FREEZE AND ANTI FFREEZE TO BE CONTAMINATED WITH OIL. GM HAS SINCE CHANGED THE GASKETS TO A DIFFERENT TYPE OF MATERIAL. MECHANIC STATED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE.

THERE IS MOISTURE IN THE HEAD LAMP HOUSING. THIS MOISTURE CAUSES THE INSIDE TO FOG OVER REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT. THE LACK OF LIGHT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE OBJECTS AT NIGHT. *JB

I HAVE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, INCLUDING THE ABS, TCS, AND AIR BAG LIGHTS COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY, AND THE DEALER HAS SAID THERE'S NOTHING WRONG AND RESET IT. MY ELECTRIC PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WOULD OPEN FOR NO REASON WHEN I'M TRYING TO SHUT IT. NOW, MY BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT, SO I REPLACED THE BULB. THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. MY HUSBAND THEN LOOKED AT IT AND DETERMINED THAT THE WIRE PINS/PLUGS ARE BURNT AND EXPOSED ON BOTH SIDES. NOW I HAVE NO BRAKE OR TAIL LIGHTS, NO BLINKERS, NO REVERSE LIGHTS, AND AT NIGHT THE TOP BRAKE LIGHT IS THE ONLY LIGHT AND IT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. WHEN I PUT THE BRAKES ON THE DASH LIGHTS DIM AND THE RADIO LIGHTS TURN OFF, THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS COME ON, AND THE BLINKER GOES AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER, THEY TOLD ME TO CALL GM. WHEN I CALLED GM I EXPLAINED EVEN THOUGH IT'S OUT OF WARRANTY, I FEEL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING TO MAKE, SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THEY SAID I NEED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSIS, AND THEY MAY REIMBURSE ME, IF THEY FEEL IT'S A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. THEN CALL THEM BACK AND THEY'LL DETERMINE IF THEY WILL COVER ANY REPAIRS. IN THE MEAN TIME, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT A FIRE IF THE WIRE PLUGS/PINS ARE BURNT AND EXPOSED. *JB

THE STABILIZER BAR ON BOTH SIDES (FRONT)WAS FOUND TO BE BROKE COMPLETELY THROUGH. SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVY VENTURE. THIS PROBLEM WAS JUST IDENTIFIED TODAY, SO I HAVE NOT YET ATTEMPTED TO OBTAIN REPAIRS. *NM

THE PINCH WELDS BEHIND THE SIDE SLIDING DOORS (LEFT AND RIGHT) ARE BADLY CORRODED COMPROMISING THE OVERALL STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THIS UNIBODY VEHICLE. WHENEVER A PASSENGER WEIGHING OVER 150 LBS. SITS IN THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT, THE RIGHT SIDE POWER SLIDING DOOR ALARM SOUNDS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE DOOR SOMETIMES NOT CLOSE OR WILL OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY EVEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. WITH THE INTEGRITY OF THE STRUCTURE COMPROMISED, IT HAS ALSO RESULTED IN A CRACKED WINDSHIELD. THIS IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS BUT COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN A FATALITY. THE DEFECT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT GM DEALERSHIPS OF WHICH NONE WERE OF ANY ASSISTANCE. *NM

THIS WILL BE A LIST OF MOST OF THE PROBLEMS. I HAVE COMPLAINED OF SMELLING ANTI-FREEZE SINCE I PURCHASED THE VAN NEW. IT CURRENTLY HAS 94K ON IT AND I HAVE DONE ALL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ON IT. I THINK THE CLOCK WORK OIL CHANGES IS THE ONLY REASON IT STILL RUNS. MANIFOLD GASKETS, INTAKE, HEAD...HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND NEED IT AGAIN, REALLY BAD. BUT I JUST DO NOT HAVE 5-800 BUCKS LAYING AROUND TO DO A GASKET JOB AGAIN SINCE I JUST DID IT A YEAR AGO. THE ANTI-FREEZE DILUTING THE OIL HAS MESSED UP A COUPLE PISTONS. THEY SLAP VERY BAD OK HERE IS MY LIST (I HAVE DEALER INVOICES FOR EVERYTHING FIXED THE FIRST TIME AND RECEIPTS FOR PARTS AND LABOR THE SECOND TIME, OR MY HUSBAND GOT SICK OF PAYING FOR THE SAME CRAP SO HE WOULD FIX THINGS) (HE IS IN THE AUTOMOTIVE TESTING AND DESIGN FIELD) *JB

THE ENGINE IN MY 1999 CHEVY VENTURE VAN JUST WENT OUT. THE VAN HAS LESS THAN 90,000 MILES ON IT. MY PARENTS 1999 VENTURE DID THE SAME THING AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME MILEAGE 2 YEARS AGO. IS THERE A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINES IN THE 1999 VENTURE VANS? *JB
