1998 Chevrolet Venture complaints

WAS REAR-ENDED. I WAS NOT MOVING AT THE TIME, WAS HIT AT APPROX 35-40MPH. MY(DRIVER) SEAT FLEW BACK AND COLLAPSED, TWISTED. I WAS INJURED, RESULTING IN POSSIBLY PERMANENT NERVE DAMAGE. NEVER OCCURRED TO ME THAT THIS WAS A DESIGN FLAW THAT CONTRIBUTED TO MY INJURY. TV NEWS PROGRAM INDICATED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH GM SEATS AND JUST THIS TYPE OF COLLISION. I THOUGHT I SHOULD SPEAK UP! MY VAN WAS TOTALED, AS WAS THE VEHICLE OF THE PERSON WHO HIT ME. VERY LUCKY THAT MY PREGNANT PASSENGER'S SEAT DID NOT SUFFER THE SAME FATE AS MINE, OR HER BEAUTIFUL SON MIGHT NOT BE HERE.*AK

HEAD LAMP LENSE FELL OFF, EXPOSING WIRES AND BULBS. PARTS ARE BACKORDERED.*AK

REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT BUCKLE DOES NOT REMAIN IN LATCH PLATE. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

THE ABS LIGHT TURNS ON CONTINOUSLY. THE DEALER UNDER GM ASSISTANCE HAVE FAIL TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM OVER A PERIOD OF NINE MONTH. THIS MINI VAN IS USE TO TRANSPORT MY 1 YEAR SON, MY THREE YEAR OLD DAUGTHER,AND MY WIFE. I AM A MECHANICAL ENGINEER AND I HAVE ASKED FOR ENGINEERING ASSISTANCE ON THIS MATTER FROM BOTH GM AND JON HALL CHEVROLET, BUT THE ASSISTANCE HAS BEEN DENIED. PLEASE ADVISED IF MY FAMILY IS IN ANY DANGER IF TRANSPORTED BY THIS VEHICLE UNDER AN ABS LIGHT SIGNAL. . THE DEALER'S AND MANUFACTURE DON'T SEEM TO BE REGARDING IT AS LIFE THREATNING. THE SYSTEM CODE COMPUTER HAS RECORDED SYSTEM FAILURE IN ITS CODE LOG. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A LIGHT RELAY GETTING STUCK. PLEASE ADVISE. I AM NOT AN EXPERT ON THIS VEHICLE, BUT I HAVE ENOUGTH TECHNICAL BACKGROUNG TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE ANTI LOCK SYSTEM TAKES OVER THE BRAKING SYSTEM ADJUSTING FLUID PRESSURE TO PREVENT THE TIRES FROM LOCKING UP. AN ABNORMALITY IN THIS SYSTEM COULD CAUSE THE BRAKING SYSTEM NOT TO BRAKE PROPERLY WHEN NEEDED. YOUR PROMPT RESPONSE WILL BE APPRECIATE. I CANNOT GET PAST GENERAL MOTORS CUSTOMER SERVICE FRONT. *AK

AT 37,000 MILES MY VAN SHOULD NOT HAVE NEEDED A RESEALING OF THE ENGINE. I AM OUTRAGED BY THIS AND WILL PERSUE THE MATTER WITH A LAWYER IF NECESSARY.*AK (DOT NUMBER: N/A TIRESIZE: N/A)

WHEN EXITING VEHICLE ONLY ON DRIVER'S SIDE CONSUMER CAN NOTICE A VERY STRONG FUEL ODOR. CONSUMER HAD VEHICLE INSPECTED AND DETERMINED THAT FUEL FILTER WAS LEAKING FUEL AT THE CONNECTOR . REPLACED FUEL FILTER, AND CONSUMER NOTICE FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM FUEL FILTER FIVE MONTHS LATER. *AK

CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL 01013 ON SLIDING DOOR. CONSUMER FELT PROBLEM WAS NEVER CORRECTED. DEALER INDICATED REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED, SLIDING DOOR ACTUATOR HELD DOOR SHUT ON 04/20/2001. ONO4/ 27/2001, DOOR WAS NOT CLOSING AGAIN. DEALER SAID THEY WILL NOT FIX IT AGAIN WITHOUT CHARGING CONSUMER.*AK

CONSUMER TURNED ON IGNITION AND HEARD A POP SOUND. BOTH HEADLIGHT LENS COVERS AND LIGHTS BLEW OUT. CONSUMER WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR $600 REPAIR. *AK *SLC

WHEN DRIVING THROUGH WATER ENGINE WILL SUDDENLY CUT OFF. CONSUMER HAS TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP/MECHANIC TOLD CONSUMER THAT A BELT WAS TOO NEAR WHEEL WHICH CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *AK

THE LENS ON BOTH HEADLIGHTS HAVE NOW FAILED. EVIDENTLY MOISTURE LEAKS INTO THE ASSEMBLY AND THE HEAT OF THE LIGHT CAUSES RAPID EXPANSION , BLOWING THE LENS OFF. THE LENS IS ONLY HELD IN PLACE WITH ADHESIVE. OFF COURSE THIS ONLY HAPPENS AT NIGHT WHEN YOU NEED LIGHTS.

VAN SHIMMIES/VIBRATATES AT 30+ MPH SINCE 1 MONTH AFTER PURCHASING. HAVE PUT ON NEW TIRES, DEALERS SAY NOTHING WRONG, THIS IS NORMAL FOR VANS/TRUCKS (NOT A PLEASANT RIDE). DEFROSTERS WILL NOT DEFROST SIDE WINDOWS, DEALER SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. WHILE BACKING DOWN STEEP DRIVEWAY WITH 3 PEOPLE IN VAN, VAN IS HITTING BOTTOM. DEALER INSTALLED NEW SHOCKS/SPRINGS, BUT STILL HITS BOTTOM.*AK

WHENEVER IT RAINS HEADLIGHTS FILL UP WITH WATER. THEN, WHEN TURNING ON HEADLIGHTS AND IF WATER IS THERE, THEY WOULD BLOW OUT. THIS CAUSES LENSES TO GET MOISTURE BUILD UP FROM INSIDE, AND CUTS OFF VISIBILITY. CONSUMER HAS TO USE HIGH BEAMS.-*AK

COVER OF DRIVERSIDE'S HEADLIGHTS CAME OFF WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. IT APPEARED TO BE IMPROPERLY INSTALLED WITH POOR ADHESIVE MATERIALS. *AK PASSENGER SIDE ALSO LOOSE AND SHOWING CONDENSATION. BOTH HEAD LIGHTS WERE REPLACED BY THE DEALER. *YH

PASSENGER'S SIDE SEAT BELT DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. WILL NOT RELEASE FROM RETRACTOR TO BE USED. WOULD GET HUNG UP IN RETRACTOR MECHANISM.*AK

I REPORTED A DEFECT LAST WEEK ON MY INTEGRAL CHILD SAFETY SEAT - THE LATCH WHICH GOES ACROSS THE CHILD'S CHEST POPS OPEN WHEN PULLED ON - SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY BOB TAGG THE SERVICE MANAGER FOR LAWRENCE HALL CHEVROLET THAT THE SAFETY RESTRAINTS ON THE NEW CHEVY VENTURE VANS DO THE SAME THING - AND THEREFORE THEY WILL NOT REPLACE MINE. I WAS HORRIFIED TO FIND THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN ON THE ROAD WHOSE PARENTS (LIKE I WAS) THINKING THAT THEIR CHILD IS SAFELY STRAPPED IN AND THEY ARE FAR FROM IT. I IMPLORE YOU TO PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS DEFECT FOR THE WELFARE OF THESE CHILDREN. *AK

THE BUILT IN CHILD SAFETY RESTRAINTS IN THE MIDDLE SEATS OF THE VAN ARE DEFECTIVE. THE LATCH WHICH GOES ACROSS THE CHILD'S CHEST, POPS OPEN WHEN TUGGED ON. THIS OCCURS ON BOTH RESTRAINTS (ONE RESTRAINT HAS NOT BEEN USED) WHICH MAKES ME BELIEVE THAT IT IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.*AK

THE PASSENGER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT LENS COVERS FALL OFF, ON 11/1/00 THIS CAUSE THE BULB TO SHORT OUT DUE TO EXPOSURE TO RAIN, SHORTLY AFTER, THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHTS LENS COVER FELL OFF, MECHANIC DISCOVERED GLUE THAT HOLDS LENS COVER TO HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FAILED. CJ

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WHEN DRIVING THRU PUDDLES/HARD RAIN BATTERY LIGHT ON, LOSS OF ALL STEERING/BRAKES/ETC AND THEN POWER "POPS" BACK ON-DO NOT NEED TO RESTART ENGINE. HAS OCCURRED AT STOP AND WHILE DRIVING. DANGEROUS IN REGARDS TO INSTRUMENT PANEL: ENGINE COOLANT LIGHT COMES OFF/ON, COOLANT LEVELS NORMAL, CAR NOT OVERHEATING-WILL SEE DEALER; AT SAME TIME AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT LIGHT ON SAME SIDE OF PANEL COMES OFF/ON AT INTERMITTENT TIMES. SOMETIMES ENGINE COOLANT LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHT ARE ON AT SAME TIMES, SOMETIMES THEY ALTERNATE. SERIOUSLY THINK THERE IS WIRING DEFECT IN VEHICLE. ALSO--INSTRUMENT PANEL VERY HOT TO TOUCH AT RADIO AREA, HIGH RISK TO BURN. ALSO, HAVE EXPERIENCED FLICKERING OF OVERHEAD INTERIOR LIGHTS WHEN KEY REMOVED FROM IGNITION--NOT THE NORMAL "STAY ON FOR SO MANY SECONDS" ?WIRING PROBLEM WILL SEEK DEALER ATTENTION, BUT OF COURSE OUT OF WARRANTY AND CONCERN OF FAMILY SAFETY IS 1ST AND FOREMOST. ANY INFO YOU HAVE TO ASST IS APPRECIATED. *AK

LINK THATS HOLDS BRAKE PEDAL IN PLACE BROKE, LEAVING BRAKE PEDAL HANGING, AND NONE RESPONSIVE. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK THE DEALER FOUND THE CLIP WAS MISSING FROM BRAKE PEDAL ASSELMBLY. *YH

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM... AND IT HAS SO LITTLE MILEAGE ON IT ! I CHECKED AND COULD NOT FIND ANY RECALLS ON THIS ITEM. CAN YOU LET ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY, THE DEALER SAYS THAT DON'T HAVE ANY. *AK

ASSEMBLY COLLECTS WATER THROUGH FAULTY SEALS. CONDENSATE REDUCES ILLUMINATION. EVENTUALLY LENS FALLS OFF, BULB EXPLODES IF HOT AND RAIN STRKES IT, CAUSING HEADLIGHT TO FAIL.*AK

NO SUMMARY LISTED FOR THIS VEHICLE. *AK

THE VAN WAS IN THE SHOP AT LANDMARK WHEN WE FIRST GOT IT FOR ITS BRAKES, LIGHTS AND BATTERY, IT ALSO WAS AT LAND MARK WHEN THE BATTERY WENT OUT AND WAS NOT TOLD THAN THAT THE SENSOR DID NOT GET TOLD THE SENSOR WAS BAD TILL AFTER A FEW WEEKS THE LIGHT FOR SERVICE CAME ON AND IT WAS TAKEN TO TUNEUP MASTER FOR A TUNE UP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE LIGHT FOR THE SENSOR HAD BEEN RESET FOR THE SENSOR SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED GM HAS A RECALL ON THIS MAKE OF VAN BUT BECAUSE MY VA DOES NOT FALL INTO THE TIME THEY WHERE MADE THEY WOULD NOT HELP WITH THE TRANS. REPAIR, NOR WILL THEY HELP WITH THE BRAKES. *AK

WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT WHEN HEADLIGHTS & ALL INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS WENT OUT. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES WOULD COME BACK ON BY THEM SELVES. DID NOT TAMPER WITH THE LIGHT SWTICH. TOOK VEHICLE TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP WHERE ONE OF THEM DID REPAIRS, BUT PROBLEM REAPPEARED. BOTH MECHANICS INDICATED TO BRING VEHICLE BACK WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN.*AK THE DEALER PUT IN NEW GENERATOR AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT REOCCURED. *YH

SEATBELT BROKE; CONSUMER HAS CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS, AND THEY HAVEN'T RESPONDED. CLIP WILLNOT NOT HOLD WHEN CLIPPED IT INSIDE OF RETRACTOR, SO THAT IT CAN CLICK AND HOLD.*AK

I WAS DRIVING MY VAN WITH MY PREGNANT COUSIN ON BOARD WHEN WE HEARD A LOUD NOISE. THE STEERING NO LONGER CONTROLLED THE REAR END OF THE CAR, AND THE REAR BEGAN TO SWAY FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I SLOWED TO ABOUT 3 MILES PER HOUR AND GOT THE CAR OFF THE ROAD. I WAS ABOUT TO GO UP AWINDING MOUNTAIN ROAD. I TOOK PICTURES OF THE DAMAGE, THE TRAILING ARM COMPLETELY SNAPPED IN HALF. *AK

WHEN IT RAINS IT GOES INTO VEHICLE WHERE DOME LIGHT AND ELECTRONIC COMPUTER WERE MOUNTED ON THE CEILING WHICH MAY CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT. ALSO, ON MIDDLE REAR SEAT BOTH SEATBELTS JAMMED AND WOULD NOT LOCK IN PLACE, WHICH WONT PROTECT CHILD IN EVENT OF A CRASH. DEALER REPLACED PASSENGER'S SIDE SEATBELT, AND FIXED DRIVER'S REAR SEATBELT. FINALLY, REAR MIDDLE WINDOW PIN KEPT FALLING, WHICH ALLOWED THE WINDOWS TO STAY OPEN. DEALER FIXED THE PROBLEM 3 TIMES, BUT ON THE FOURTH TIME, THEY REPLACE THE WHOLE UNIT. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

TREAD SEPARATED AND WRAPPED AROUND MY REAR AXEL. DISENGAGED ABS SYSTEM, FEEL VERY LUCKY TO BE HERE TODAY. WAS ON MY RIM IN SECONDS. FIRESTONE NOT ANSWERING MY CALLS. I HAVE SAVED THE TIRES.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 215/70R15 )

WE WERE APPROACHING A CRASH AND HAD TO SLAM ON OUR BRAKES AT 40MPH AND THE SEAT BELT HOLDING OUR SONS CAR SEAT BROKE APART

ON THE DATE REFERENCED, I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPACE. MY SISTER WAS ALREADY PARKED NEXT TO ME AND WAS STILL IN HER CAR. AS I WAS PACKING UP USING ONLY THE BRAKE, SUDDENLY THE HORN STARTED BLOWING AND THE ENGINE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. AS A RESULT OF THE ACCELERATION THE TIRES TURNED SHARPLY CAUSING THE CAR TO JUMP THE PARKING BUMPER AND CRASHING INTO MY SISTER'S CAR. THE DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES WAS APPROXIMATELY $1600. WE HAVE HAD THE BODY WORK COMPLETED BUT THE LOCAL CHEVROLET GARAGE COULD FIND NOTHING IN THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. THEY SUPPOSEDLY CHECKED THE VEHICLE FOR WHAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION, BUT COULD FIND NOTHING. WE HAVE HEARD RECENT OTHER CAR OWNERS EXPERIENCES ABOUT SIMILAR OCCURANCES BUT NONE INVOLVING THE CHEVROLET VENTURE. I NOW AM UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THAT I OTHERWISE LOVE. HAVE THEIR BEEN ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS TYPE? WHAT OTHER RECOURSE DO WE HAVE WITH CHEVROLET TO REALLY HAVE THEM THOROUGHLY CHECK THE VEHICLE? I AM ABSOLUTELY SURE THERE WAS NO MANUAL ACCELERATION SINCE I WAS ALREADY BEGINNING TO BACK THE VEHICLE INTO THE SPOT WHICH WAS REQUIRING NO MANUAL ACCELERATION ONLY VEHICLE MOVEMENT CONTROLLED BY THE BRAKE (THERE WAS NO GRADE TO BE NEGOTIATED).

PE-00-020; P215/70R15 ORGINIAL EQUIPMENT ON A CHEVROLET, VENTURE 1998. WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 35-40 MPH RIGHT FRONT TIRE BLEWOUT, TREAD SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE. CONSUMER CONTACTED DEALER, DEALER INSPECTED TIRES. ALSO NOTICED RIGHT REAR TIRE TREAD WAS SEPARATING. *AK DEALER AGREED TO REPLACE ONE TIRE. *YH

THE SAFETY BELT LATCH HAS A LIMITED RANGE OF MOTION AND DOESN'T ALLOW FOR A PROPER FIT FOR TODDLER CAR SEATS. THEY HAVE THE OVER THE SHOULDER STRAP AND WHEN YOU TRY TO SECURELY BUCKLE THE SEAT IN PLACE THE LATCH DOESN'T ROTATE UP FAR ENOUGH TO SECURE THE BELT. I'VE TRIED A COUPLE DIFFERENT SEATS THAT WOULD SUIT OUR NEEDS PERFECTLY AND THEY CAN'T BE USED UNTIL OUR CHILD IS OVER 40LBS. THE SEAT WE PURCHED IS THE GRACO CHERISHED CAR GO, MODEL #8480HG. IT SITS WELL IN THE SEAT, BUT CAN'T BE LATCHED PROPERLY. IS THERE ANYTHING ON THE MARKET THAT I COULD PURCHASE THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO PROPERLY SECURE THE TODDLER/BOOSTER SEAT?

REAR WINDOW WASHER FAILED. *SLC

MY WIFE AND I NOTICED A DELAYED RESPONSE WHEN ACCELERATOR WAS PUSHED WHILE ALREADY AT SPEED. MY WIFE ALSO SAID THAT THE ENGINE SOUNDED DIFFERENT THAN IN THE PAST. WE TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY INSPECTED THE TRANSMISSION. THERE ARE METAL SHAVINGS THROUGHOUT THE TRANSMISSION - IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW A VEHICLE THAT HAS RECEIVED REGULAR MAINTAINANCE CAN HAVE A TRANSMISSION GO BAD AT ONLY 50K MILES.

WHEN IT RAINS RESIDUE/CONDENSATION BUILDUP ON HEADLIGHT LENS, CAUSING VISUAL DIFFICULTY WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH. DEALER WAS AWARE OF THE DEFECT, AND PUT OUT A TSB BULLETIN IN WHICH DEALER WILL BLOWOUT THE RESIDUE/CONDENSATION WITH A "AIRGUN." BUT THIS PROBLEM IS ALWAYS OCCURRING. *AK THE DRIVER HAS TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER EVERY TIME IT RAINS OR WEATHER IS DAMP AND WAIT 3-4 HOURS WHILE THE DEALER BLOW OT CONDENSATION WITH AIRGUM. *YH

POWER STEERING INTERMITTENTLY GOES OUT. WHILE TURNING CORNERS STEERING WILL LOCK UP FOR SOME SECONDS, AND THEN IT WILL RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATION. GMC HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

WHILE PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY LESS THEN 5 MPH PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED INADVERTENTLY, AND CAUSED THE AUTOMATIC BUTTON TO RICOCHET TO THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE ( WITH TWO CHILD IN CSS IN REAR SEAT). ALSO, AIR BAG PUNCTURED FROM THE ATTACHMENT WHICH THE BUTTON WAS ATTACH TO. DEALER/MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS. *AK

CONSUMER FEELS THERE IS INSUFFICENT SPACE BETWEEN BRAKE PEDAL AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL, OR IT'S JUST POOR DESIGN WHICH CAUSES MISAPPLICATION OF PEDALS.*AK

FOR ABOUT A YEAR RADIATOR FAN FAILED, AND CONSUMER HAD TO REPLACE RADIATOR TWICE. RADIATOR FAN STOPPED WORKING, AND RADIATOR OVERHEATED. *AK

I SPOKE TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AT CHEVROLET AND THEY SAID MY CAR WAS NOT IN FOR A RECALL FOR MOISTURE BEING IN THE LIGHTS OR THE HEADLIGHT FRONT COMING OFF. I NOTICED IN ODI ID 714982 SOMEONE HAD SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT ON MOISTURE IN THE LIGHTS. AT THIS POINT MY RIGHT HEAD LIGHT FRONT COVER HAS COME OFF. WITH CLOSE INVESTIGATION IT LOOKS AS IF THE ADHESIVE HAD DRIED UP AND GONE BAD. ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO I NOTICED THE LEFT HEADLIGHT HAD MOISTURE IN IT. THE MOISTURE IN THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT APPEARED ABOUT 6 MONTHS OR SO AGO. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT IT LOOKS LIKE THE ADHESIVE IS GOING BAD IN THE LEFT HEADLIGHT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. *AK

WHILE TRAVELING EAST APPROXIMATELY 35-40MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE TRAVELING WEST, ENTERED EASTBOUND LANE. BOTH VEHICLES COLLIDED HEAD-ON ON DRIVER'S SIDE. UPON IMPACT, NEITHER AIR BAG DEPLOYED. DRIVER'S SEAT BELT WAS INTACT, BUT DRIVER SUFFERED MINOR INJURIES. CHILDREN, IN REAR, SUSTAINED SOME BRUISES FROM SEAT BELTS, BUT NO TREATMENT. VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. *AK *JB

EXCESSIVE WATER VAPOR IN HEADLIGHTS REDUCES LIGHT. CURRENT FIX WAS TO DRILL HOLES. EXCESSIVE WATER VAPOR IN FRONT TURN SIGNALS INCREASES GLARE AND CONFUSES TRAFFIC WHEN TURNING. NO FIX OFFERED. *AK

INTERMITTENTLY WHEN SHUTTING THE SLIDING DOOR, IT AUTOMATICALLY POPS BACK OPEN. VAN HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP SIX TIMES. DEALER IS NOT ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM COMPLETELY. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK
