  Never a GM product again - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By Mike - May 20 - 3:53 am

  We were quite fortunate we bought this during a promoton where GM was selling it with 60,000 mile, 60 month warrantries. We used it. The seat warmers constantly failed. One of the power slide doors failed. The rear tail lights constantly burned out, and GM refuses to admit a flaw. Even the DVD remote is a disappointment ... it is constantly running down the battery. We know have plenty of batteries and a screw driver to deal with this.

  Best of the GMs - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By KE - January 8 - 10:33 am

  Too bad Olds will be going away. The only Van Id rather own is the Chrysler T&C LTD. Comfy, useful, great ride and better gas mileage than most other minivans.

  Timely Demise - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By Moe - December 26 - 11:03 am

  The van is now showing its age with having to replace the front wheel hub assemblies on both sides (very expensive). The wiring to the hubs has corroded and therefore had to be replaced (costly). The interior is flooding due to improper drainage of condensation of the A/C unit. The power of the engine is very limited compared to the imports. Have also had to replace the rear wiper motor, contacts to the power sliding doors, rear window motors. The headlight assemblies both leak considerably, causing the halogen lamps to need replacing more than necessary.

  This car is a treasure! - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette

  I loved my Town N Country but It kept having mechanical issues. Its style was what drew me. Recently I purchased a silluette and have found all the features love in the TnC without mechanical problems.

  Solid Family Hauler - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By Childs Van - November 10 - 5:50 pm

  We’ve been very happy with this van. For a family of four plus a dog, we have always had enough room for our stuff – even a canoe! Mechanically, the vehicle has been pretty consistent. Only major repair was a transmission rebuild at 60,000 miles that was covered under warranty. Now at 80,000 miles, she burns a little oil, but otherwise runs great and considered reliable. Recent 700 mile trips have proved uneventful. The interior has held up very well, the DVD and audio is still great. We’ll plan to keep our “Happy Van” for another 2-3 years for those high- capacity needs and five-plus passenger shuttles.

  Dont Bother - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By Skip - June 12 - 10:40 am

  With 2 young children, thought we HAD to have a minivan. Shouldnt have been this one. Heated seats gave up within first 3 months. Fan control resistor at 5 months. A/C condenser cracked at 70K miles. Intake gasket started leaking at 80K. Poor build quality, and the noisiest highway vehicle Ive driven since my 76 K5 Blazer.

  Initially skeptical - 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By bullet - March 28 - 10:00 am

  Upon purchasing the Olds I began to get sweaty palms thinking that I was going to have quality problems. Most reviews had the Honda or Chrysler as the van to purchase and also the common public opinion that Japanese imports are made better. However I just liked the look and ride of the Olds. And I have not been dissappointed in anyway. This van has been a superior vehicle in everyway.
