My Venture Experience

I loved my Venture van. However, it was my 2nd Chevrolet to own, having previously owned a Cavalier. It is only 2 years old and the air conditioner quit and has to have a new compressor. I bought it as a program car so unfortunately the warranty is out. The air conditioner quit in my Cavalier after only 2 years also! I am angry about the a.c. system not lasting more than 2 years. I traded in my 2 year old van yesterday. I am sad because I truly loved my Venture van. I will never own another Chevrolet. I am sad because I truly enjoyed my Venture experience.

We purchased this 2003 that was a rental vehicle. Van is very smooth riding and has plenty of power. The only thing they should have thought of was more power outlets in the front. There is only one. My previous GMC Jimmy had 3 power outlets. Enjoy having the sliding passenger door, makes a big difference with our little baby getting her in and out. Rear air is a life saver!

'04 Chevy Venture in 2025

I recieved this vehicle for free from a friend who no longer needed it. Had to replace the battery, and the wipers used to cross over each other.... So I drive with one wiper lol. It makes some concerning noises if you make any hard turns, but it's holding up. It's just under 170k miles. It's rusty, but fairly trusty. Recently, I had to replace the starter. Since then, it's been handling some insane low temps with no issues whatsoever. It's got some pretty hefty power surprisingly. That 3.4 liter 6v ain't nothing to laugh at. The frame is doing alright considering the previous owner not particularly taking proper care of it (not the person who gave it to us). Body and panels however, oof. Every time we close one of the back doors, we have less van. Chunks fall off. I drove over some train tracks a while back and the heat shield decided to divorce itself from the vehicle. The back doors also are pretty hard to open, but I could probably just fix that with PB Blaster. I DO get a handful of electrical issues. For instance, I have a check engine light on but No one can read it. The sockets just blatantly do not work. My brake light is on, along with a constant message of low brake fluid though it still stops like a beast. If I had any form of issues with this van, it's the fact that almost everything that you would regularly want to check or replace, like the battery or some fluid reservoirs, is in THE MOST INCONVENIENT PLACE EVER. The battery is under the starter relay. The brake reservoir is practically right behind the steering wheel un a place where you can't easily access. Either way, It's still been good to me and mine. I'm genuinely surprised.
