I bought my 01 Venture just over a year ago (Aug 04). I loved it until my wipers went crazy 4 days after I bought it. The fine GM dealer refused to do anything about it until a show was made to the owner in his show room. These are the problems I've had in the last year with this fine Chev product: Wiper control arm, Intake manifold gasket leak, Rear wiper no longer works, Radio is locked, Instrument cluster has no lights, Gauges are not working, Blinker problems, LR power lock interminent, Right power window came off bracket, Front disc and pads replaced. Sounds like other people are having similar problems. DO NOT buy a van in the montana/venture family.

| I'm new to the site. i have a 2001 chevy venture and fell in love with it. my mechanic told me my head gasket need replaced. 1st why does it take so many hours to replace the $300.00 gasket. they told me 17 hours worth of work which equates to $1,000. I find this hard to believe. 2nd my van runs great, what signs should i see if my head gasket is going bad? yes, i am getting a second opinion. i just want to be more on top of things when i get my 2nd opinon. can anyone help me? | |

The SES light came on in my 2001 venture.SES is lit up solid not blinking.I changed to gas cap to a locking one after finding out some thugs where trying to siphon my gas. I changed the back to the factory gas cap.SES still stays lit.Where do I start to try and find out what is wrong? Is there a way to get the error codes from the computer? Vehicle just turned 37K.Any assistance greatly appreciated. |

My '98 Venture died on me one night driving down the road. Lights went dim, power steering failed, everything went dead. This started the long process of taking the Venture to the shop 3 times. The first time the alternator was rebuilt. It ran for 10 days and broke down again. A second rebuilt alternator was put in everything else checked out ok and the van ran for less than 24 hours before it died again. A brand new alternator has been put in and I've driven it for 2 days and the signs of the fading alternator are coming back. Can anyone tell me what is burning up the alternator? Because my mechanic sure can't!
