  falling apart - 2000 Chevrolet Astro
  By Joe Horton - October 12 - 8:31 am

  Ive put 40000 miles in 3 years since I had it. I must admitt its a good runner with the 4.3 6cyl. but simple things are going wrong that should not happen. Expect to replace the drivers power window motor cuz everyone Ive talk to had a problem. Front and rear air you will have a major leak from front to back. You want your fuel guage to work forget it. How about lights behind the radio just drive when the suns out. I like the dutch doors except for the famous rust under the lift window. And IM retireed UAW oh well.

  Bad engine - 2000 Chevrolet Astro
  By Jim - May 16 - 12:13 pm

  A great all purpose vehicle when it runs right. Unchanged in 20 yrs. like the old VW beatle. Mine "burns" more coolant than oil! Head gasket leaking. Need a new engine after just 74K. Lukas oil treatment no help. Engine hard to service spark plugs not accessible. Hard to find mechanics who know and understand this vehicle. The front end rebuilt for $1800. Tape deck stolen in Manhattan inspite of security/alarm system. This cargo van was converted to passenger minus the seats--large clear glass (!) windows were cut into the sides. 5- leaf rear springs were added for heavy duty which I recommend! I was thrilled with 18.6 MPG highway recently. But Im trading it in for a used 2005.

  Enough Already - 2000 Chevrolet Astro
  By dellwen - June 24 - 2:00 am

  Although the initial quality was acceptible this vehicle does not hold its miles well. All maintenence was done on schedule however after 60000 miles the vehicle seemed to be in self destruct mode. Starter, Battery, Water Pump, AC Compressor, Blower Motor, Rear Wheel Bearing, Transmission... This vehicle was the last straw for the big three (GM, Ford, Chrysler) in my book. I never had any issues with my Hyundai and I love my Honda even more. I hate to say it but our Union workers are overated. Abolish the Unions and lets start building decent vehicles here in the USA. Until then Honda has my business. They are over 75% USA or Canadian anyway.
