Example complaints

Body and structure: “I have a 2000 chevy EXPRESS 1500 van. The side doors have become increasing hard to open and shut. Finally one day they would not close and the door appears to be warped or out of alignment. After taking the van to a body shop they told me the hinge pins on the doors have seized up and there is no way to lubricate them. He said the repair is about $1,000 to repair the door which involves cutting off the old hinges and welding on ew ones. The body shop said this is a common failure that GM is aware of but will not change, fix or stand behind if out of warranty. …”

Electrical system: “There are 3 doors on the passenger side the one that has the 2 doors for the people in the back to get out that the door with the handle that is in the inside will open but scrapes the outer metal frame. This door did open and work fully until one day and I don't know what happen I wanted to open it and it wouldn't open. I didn't want to force it nor knock any more paint off. I don't know if it is the hinge itself or something else.when I bought it in 1999 don't know how long it was but mark 3 went out of business so I don't know if there was a recall or not . …”

Seats: “The drivers seat on 2000 Chevrolet express van is becoming detached from the base. This is causing the seat to unexpectedly move when turning or stopping. The seat is detached in the rear of the base and actually swivels up towards the steering wheel. There is concern that the seat will unexpectedly move causing the operator to lose control of the vehicle. In an effort to rectify the seat problem I attempted to contact the maker of the seat. It was very difficult to obtain a replacement as phone messages and e-mails were not returned. …”
