2000 Chevrolet Astro LS 4.3 fi
Summary:
Avoid like the plague!!!
Faults:
Cylinder misfire, window and power lock switches needed to be replaced, body molding coming off body, driver's window motor bad, need I go on?
General Comments:
Please do yourself a favor and don't buy an Astro. Like others, it seems like something is going wrong every other month.
The molding is falling off the body; I will probably have to glue it back on.
Stock shocks are mushy and not stout enough.
The build quality is just not up to par.
We have had it into the dealer multiple times for the same problems, like windows and power locks.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

To me it seems that you just got unlucky and got a bad car. We have an Astro AWD and an Astro, and they both are great, and have needed few repairs. You may have just got a bad car out of the bunch.
