Bought 1998 chevy astro van on march 8, 2007. We took a family vacation to iowa october 1-5, 2007. On the way back to tennessee, on i-64, located near nashville, illinois, the van began to smoke under the hood. Thinking it was just overheating, we pulled over and shut the engine off. Smoke began to come through the air vents. As we were exiting, we noticed flames coming from under the hood, and we ran. A large gush of wind caused the entire van to be engulfed in flames. We lost all our belongings as well as the vehicle itself. We are not exactly high on the financial end and would appreciate any and all help you can give us. *tr

I have a 1998 chevy astro van that has had the windshield wipers quit randomly. I also know of several people that have had the same problem on other model chevy/gmc trucks, vans, and cars. The cause of the problem is apparently a defective circuit board in the wiper motor itself. *jb

Headlight cover falls off headlight assembly. Bulb is exposed to elements, which destroys the bulb. Replacement part, which is an headlight assembly, includes a headlight bulb, cost $125-$145. This is a rediculous amount of money to pay when just a plastic cover falls off. Make the plastic cover available with a glue kit for the customer to fix the problem. Then get your engineers to fix the problem.*ak

The passenger sliding door (automatic) does not operate properly in weather conditions under 50/60 degrees. The door does not latch (which i've paid to have fixed in 2002), and now because it does not latch, it is popping back open. This has happened numerous times. I've also found out, by my own research, that there is a recall on the sliding door actuators, and another coming on the inside door handle. I have never been notified of any recalls on this vehicle. This has been unacceptable, and is deterring me from purchasing another gm vehicle. I've also had to replace my water pump, which is a known problem with the venture. The van only has 89,000 miles on it, and should not have as many defects as it does.*ak

Dt: the seat belt in the first row middle seat will not stay latched, and the rear seat belt will not pull out at all. This has been going on since may 2004. Also, there has been a problem with the hatchback door. The door issue had been included in a recall, and the work had been done by the previous owners. The recall work for the door was in the process of being done. The seat belt issue was not included. The vehicle is a 1998, chevorlet, adventure. *ak
