What 1995 Chevrolet Van owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Riding down the road, stopping at a stop light/stop sign, and taking off from sign/light. Acts like it's going to cut off and sometimes does. When I take off, I'm not sure whether it's going to go or cut off (sorta like you maybe getting ready to run out of gas)close to several accidents. If this vehicle cuts off in the middle of crossing roads/4 lanes, this could be fatal. It's like this problem comes and goes, you never know. Sounds and acts like something is clogged up or sticks causing loss of engine vaccum. Nothing has been done about this and I can't afford to get it looked at anytime soon. Also, scared to go out at night with not knowing what could happen.
When the vehicle was hit at 50 MPH in the front, the center the air bags did not deploy. The dealer has been notified. *nlm the seat gave away as well.
The shock absorber bracket broke off on front right frame due to rust and thin metal dealer will look at it but does not know if he can fix it to me this is a bad engineering job on gms part thank you.
The bead failure caused a flat, the tread separation failures became known when the tire was brought in for repair. All four tire had similar failures of tread separation. Only the one from canada had the bead failure. I will attempt to send photos. (dot number: vnhl1py406 tiresize: p235/75r15)
Windshield wipers/washer fails to operate when it is raining or when wind is blowing. Consumer must pull over when this system fails. Please provide any additional information/attachments. Consumer has taken vehicle to dealership since february of 1996, and nothing has been done regarding this.
While driving at about 25-30 MPH consumer applied brake, car accelerated up to 80 MPH. Hit 2 vehicles and a tree before coming to stop. Air bags did not deploy. Consumer took key out of ignition, did not stop motor from running, fire department shut engine off by blocking tail pipe, then disconnected battery. Took to dealer, total loss, contacted chevrolet, was given request number, but has not heard back. *ak one person was injured in accident.
Right rear firestone hawk ss10 tire tread peeled completely while driving. Nlm
Engine started making a noise like it was a deisel engine from the day I drove the van I reported it several times, finaly had it replaced, and still makes the same noise. Someone said it must be the oil pump they replace it, it's still the same . When I start it up makes that noise only.
