General Comments:

Van was great it drove awesome and accelerated better then some cars I’ve drove. It looked like a dust buster, but it always ran it was still running strong when we gave it to another family member who drove it for another 10,000 km before the cigarette lighter caught fire and the interior lights, instrument lights, head lights, radio etc. stopped working and they drove it to the scrap yard.

Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong with this vehicle except the normal wear. The brakes were replaced.

General Comments:

This is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. The 3.8 V6 is stellar. Not only does it run FOREVER, but it performs great and gets good gas mileage.

Faults:

Water Pump blew at 250,000.

Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor does not work.

The gas gauge would be just as useful if it were a sticker, have to use to odometer.

Very soft floaty suspension.

General Comments:

The engine still has plenty of punch at 270,000 miles.

All dents pop-out within 5 minutes of an accident.

Plastic body looks brand new.

Faults:

This year, the driver side seat belt had to be replaced.

As of this year, the gas light remains on.

Only minor repairs had to be preformed; brakes, tires, etc.

General Comments:

This van is extremely reliable. With the 3.8L engine and the fibreglass body, it is very quick and responsive. For a van, it is very fun to drive. The single seats are light in weight and are easy to remove and put back in. All in all this is a great van. After 10 years of owning it, in the last year it received its first tune-up. An all round great vehicle, very reliable, a worthy investment.

Faults:

Heater core at 147,000 miles.

Cruise control never worked properly, but is OK.

General Comments:

A very reliable ride, handling a little mushy, but not bad for a minivan.

Is quick still at 148,000 miles.

A comfortable and versatile ride, the best car I've owned.

Faults:

Just a few minor problems, premature corrosion in the cooling system caused radiator and water pump to be replaced at 80,000 miles.

Windshield leaks.

Cup dispenser is easily broken.

Electronic dash gauges malfunctioned and had to be replaced at 68,000 miles.

General Comments:

Overall this vehicle is a gem. The 3.8 litre motor is powerful and extremely reliable. The vehicle is comfortable to drive and maintain. For the money this vehicle is a bargain and very affordable to operate. I feel this is a VERY solid mini van, well worth the investment.

Faults:

Water pump went out in warranty, but replaced for free. Transmission has a little whine but works fine.

General Comments:

Nice smooth ride, with above average power for a mini van. Gas mileage is 27 MPG on the highway and 24 in the city. The plastic body really does help on door dings and still looks good.

Faults:

Replace transmission belt.

Front dash has come up and it is difficult and costly to repair.

General Comments:

The car is comfortable and easy to drive. I'm a single woman, so appreciate the ease of removing and replacing the seats. My only complaint is that the steering wheel is slightly off center with the driver's seat. It makes it a little uncomfortable to drive when you aren't accustomed to it.
