I bought my mini-van in 2006, and it had 95,000 miles on it. For the first two years, it did great. I took it on vacations with no problems whatsoever. And the best part was that there was plenty of room for everyone. In 2008, I had to replace the head gasket and intake gaskets. It had been overheating. That's been the biggest expense. Recently, at 165,000 miles I've noticed that if I turn the AC on for long periods of time when driving, it tends to run hot. I have not let it overheat, but it does run hot. I'm also noticing the transmission is sticking. The power sliding door has a mind of its own, sometimes works and sometimes not.

When driving the van I feel its a little tight for me. (the husband) My wife fits in great.This is not the extended version. Aside from that it's a great ride. Fun to drive. Great with the kids.

Head gaskets gone 3 times. Window regulator replaced 2 times, kept taking it to dealer. And it only has 83K miles on it. Now I'm going to trade this in and get an import.
Never buy a Montana!

Last week my Transmission went and this was the last straw! I've had trouble with the windshield leaking water into the light on the centre roof, handles come off the right sliding door(Twice) right door won't open easily or at all. Hood corroded and had to be repainted. As to the transmission replacement, it was $3672.79 and this for a vehical with just 144.0 kms on it and less than four years old. The original cost was going to be $4300.00 but was reduced at the dealer(Popham on the Queensway in Toronto) I have no quarrel with the dealership but General Motors in my mind is not a reliable vehicle to own any more and we have four GM vehicals in my family...I just don't trust GM anymore...
Boo hoo

Seem's like everything that could go wrong has, trouble with wipers, front and back, air conditioning, brake valve, air cond, again., plastic bearing, and they now say I need to replace head gasket still I am paying on the bank loan for another year and a half, not sure if I want to risk not fixing the van because I do not have the money, or chancing I might be able to hold out until it, s paid for
