I am getting chevy cars anymore - 2000 Chevrolet Venture
By LAdude - January 24 - 2:00 amThis car is not that reliable. It broke down in four months. Six month later, I found the cars temperature gauge went all the up. My mechanic found that the coolant system was OK, yet the temperature gauge showed overheating (until now). Last year, the engine started to "cough" and the car shake. Also last year, I started my car, and the engine was racing like when the gas pedal is hit hard, the engine idle control went out. I have only 35,000 miles on that minivan, and three months ago, I had to replace the transmission. Last month, my car started leaking a lot of oil, and I already have it fixed. Next year I’m getting Honda Odyssey.

nice van - 2000 Chevrolet Venture
By leowes - December 26 - 2:00 amI bought this van used for my wife and children. Overall I am impressed with it. Being a mechanic, I look for quality and longevity along with value. The powertrain is very reliable, and maintenance is inexpensive. I have seen several of these vans in my shop and all have just been in for maintence and brakes. I cannot say the same for chrysler or ford products which seem to have weak powertrains. The acceleration is great, and handling is that of a car and not like a truck. I highly recommend this van.

LOVE OUR WARNER BROS VENTURE - 2000 Chevrolet Venture
By WB Mama - October 5 - 2:00 amWe bought our Warner Bros Venture new, and after more than 2 years of driving it, we continue to love it. I have become very possessive of my WB and wont even let my husband drive it because its "my car." That doesnt bother my husband much anyway, because hed rather sit in the back and watch movies with my son than drive. The car is great for long trips the kids and hubby just sit in the back and stay happy watching movies or listening to CDs. That leaves me the peace I need to drive. A wonderful family car!!! Have had to return the car twice for recalls about the passenger sliding door, but it appears to be working well now.

By g-cat - September 14 - 2:00 amWe love it! It is comfortable and drives well. We have driven it from WA to Mexico several times and it was great. The kids kept busy with the videos and we were happy listening to the radio and cds.

Love My Venture - 2000 Chevrolet Venture
By SuperChief - July 14 - 2:00 amBought it new, first minivan wife loves the Medium Redfire color. Engine is good for the long haul, many trips at constant 70+ mph, never a whimper transmission a smooth shifter, really good power when you need it. Handles well at all speeds. Has had two recalls on the power door so far, one to fix the door, one to fix the fix. The temp guage says it is overheating and the fans dont seem to come on to combat it, the dealers I have taken it to cant find the cause. Engine takes forever to warm up making the interior cold longer than usual in the winter.

Be careful - 2000 Chevrolet Venture
By noone - June 10 - 2:00 amMy wife and I bought the 2000 WB Venture after downsizing from a Chevy Astro. The only reason for getting rid of the Astro was convience of taking sleeping kids out of car seats in the back. Although we love the dual doors, and power driver side door (when it worked), we found ourselves quite frequently back at the dealership for the power sliding door. When the door didnt work, it would open manually either... Make sure you check that van has had the recalls done. I just traded my Venture for An AWD Astro 2002....Good By Venture....
