CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004 car safety problem was reported on July 08, 2004.CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH . ON JULY 8-15, 2004 I RENTED A 2004 CHEVROLET VENTURE FROM HERTZ RENTAL AT THE SAN DIEGO AIRPORT. WE LOADED 4 SMALL CHILDREN, AGES 1-5 YEARS OLD INTO THE VAN. AS WE WERE STRAPPING ALL OF THEM INTO THEIR CAR SEATS, MY 3 YEAR OLD PUSHED A BUTTON THAT WAS JUST INSIDE THE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR, ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS BUTTON WAS TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE AUTOMATIC DOOR, AND THE DOOR BEGAN TO CLOSE WITH MY SON STANDING AT THE PART OF THE SLIDING DOOR THAT LATCHES (THE FORWARD MOST PART OF THE DOOR). AS THE DOOR HIT HIS BODY AND DID NOT STOP, ONE OF THE ADULTS INSIDE OF THE VAN PULLED HIM INTO THE VAN AND TO SAFETY. THE DOOR WAS NOT GOING TO STOP AND WOULD HAVE INJURED HIM. A DAY LATER, MY BROTHER WAS STRAPPING MY SON INTO HIS CAR SEAT AND SOMEONE ACCIDENTLY PUSHED THE AUTO DOOR CLOSE THAT WAS ON THE KEY CHAIN. AGAIN, THE DOOR BEGAN TO CLOSE AND DID NOT STOP FOR MY BROTHER (WHO IS A 6 FOOT 3 INCH MAN), AND HE HAD TO JUMP OUT OF THE WAY. WE WERE VERY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN AND WERE VERY CAREFUL THE REMAINDER OF OUR WEEK LONG RENTAL. HOWEVER, WE ARE VERY CONCERNED THAT ANOTHER CHILD, OR ADULT, IS GOING TO BE INJURED IN THIS VAN'S AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR. WE WERE CURIOUS JUST HOW FAR THE DOOR WOULD GO BEFORE IT WOULD BOUNCE BACK OPEN SO WE PUT A STUFFED ANIMAL IN THE DOOR AND HIT THE AUTO DOOR CLOSE BUTTON. I HAVE TO SAY, THE STUFFED ANIMAL DID NOT FARE WELL. WE ALSO PUT A LARGE CARROT AND A BANANA IN THE DOOR, IN AN ATTEMPT TO SIMULATE A SMALL CHILD'S ARM. THE CARROT WAS SLICED RIGHT IN HALF, AND THE BANANA WAS SMASHED AND OOZING OUT OF ITS PEEL. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A CHEVROLET VENTURE AFTER OUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE VAN, BUT I DO FEEL VERY STRONGLY THAT THE AUTOMATIC DOOR NEEDS TO BE CHANGED SO THAT IT SENSES WHEN SOMETHING IS IN IT'S WAY AND BOUNCES BACK OPEN, OTHERWISE CHILDREN'S SAFETY, AS WELL AS ADULT'S SAFETY, IS AT STAKE. I DO HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS DEMONSTRATING HOW THE DOOR DOES NOT BOUNCE BACK. *AK .Mileage was 800 miles. Chevrolet Venture 2004 problem was reported in SAN DIEGO, CA.

WE RENTED A 2004 CHEVY VENTURE MINIVAN FROM AVIS AT PHILA AIRPORT. THE MINIVAN COMES EQUIPPED WITH A REMOTE-CONTROLLED POWER SLIDING DOOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. WE WONDERED IF THE DOOR HAD AN AUTO-REVERSE TO PREVENT IT FROM CLOSING ON SOMETHING. WE COULD IMAGINE THAT WITH THE REMOTE CONTROL, SOMEONE ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VAN OR INTHE DRIVER'S SEAT COULD CLOSE THE DOOR WITHOUT SEEING THAT THERE WAS A CHILD, FOR EXAMPLE, SITTING OR LYING ACROSS THE DOORWAY. SO WE DECIDED TO TEST IT. WE HELD A 1/2 INCH THICK STICK AGAINST THE DOORFRAME AND CLOSED THE DOOR WITH THE REMOTE. IF THERE IS AN AUTO-REVERSE, IT DID NOT OPERATE! THE DOOR CLOSED ON THE STICK WITH SUCH FORCE THAT IT PULLED THE STICK OUT OF THE TESTER'S HAND AND CRUSHED THE STICK AGAINST THE DOORFRAME. IMAGINE WHAT IT WOULD DO TO A CHILD'S HAND OR LEG! OR NECK, GOD FORBID! WHAT IS THIS MINIVAN DOING ON THE MARKET????*AK.Chevrolet Venture 2004 problem was reported in WEST ST PAUL, MN. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES.

TURNING, TILL THE COMPLETE STOP. THIS NOISE IS REALLY NOTICEABLE AT HIGHER SPEEDS NEEDING TO STOP. THE VAN AT TIMES DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT WANTS TO STOP. I FEAR ITS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT DOESN'T. WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE LOOK AT AND THEY ALL SAY IT LOOKS OK, BUT DON'T LIKE THE SOUND IT MAKING. I MADE IT A POINT TO HAVE THE VAN IN THE CHEVY SHOP BEFORE MY 36,000 MILE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING ABOUT THE ROTOR STILL TURNING SLOWLY TILL COMPLETE STOP.

CHEVROLET VENTURE Structure Body Door

CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004 Safety Review #10150873

CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2005.CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR . 2004 CHEVY VENTURE-THIS VEHICLE WAS OUR CHOICE DUE TO THE CONNIVANCE WITH TWO YOUNG CHILDREN, NOW AGES 2 AND 3 YEARS OLD. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL INCIDENCES IN WHICH MY ARM HAS BEEN BRUISED BY THE POWER DOOR MECHANISM. ONE OF SUCH INCIDENCES I HAD TAKEN BOTH CHILDREN OUT OF THE CAR AND WAS REACHING BACK INSIDE THE REAR LEFT DOOR TO RETRIEVE THE DIAPER BAG. SOMEHOW THE DOOR MECHANISM WAS TRIGGERED TO CLOSE. I THOUGHT IF I APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE DOOR IT WOULD REVERSE HOWEVER THIS MECHANISM IS SEVERELY DELAYED. THUS THE DOOR MECHANISM WAS NOT TRIGGERED TO REVERSE UNTIL MY ARM WAS COMPLETELY SANDWICHED BETWEEN THE DOOR & DOOR FRAME. BY THE TIME THE DOOR REVERSED MY ARM WAS SORE AND BRUISED. I HAVE OBVIOUSLY LEARNED TO BE VERY CAUTIOUS WITH THIS DOOR NOT TO GET A BODY PART TRAPPED IN THIS DOOR SINCE THAT OCCASION. THIS CAUTIOUSNESS EXTENDS TO BEING OBSESSIVE ABOUT MY CHILDREN AND THEIR ABILITY TO REACH THE DOOR BUTTON & BEING ABLE TO HAVE A LIMB OBSTRUCTING THE DOOR. WE MAKE SURE THE CHILDREN ARE IMMEDIATELY BUCKLED INTO THEIR CAR SEATS TO ENSURE THAT THEY CAN NOT OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. HOWEVER THE FACT THAT I AS A 23 YEAR OLD ADULT HAS TO APPLY CONSIDERABLE PRESSURE TO REVERSE THE DOOR WORRIES ME. ONE DAY I CHOSE TO TEST THE DOOR TO SEE HOW MUCH PRESSURE I WOULD HAVE TO APPLY TO REVERSE THE DOOR I FOUND THAT APPLYING AS MUCH PRESSURE WITH ONE HAND AS POSSIBLE I WAS STILL UNABLE TO REVERSE THE DOOR UNTIL THE DOOR IS WITH IN 4 INCHES OF THE DOOR FRAME REQUIRING AS MUCH PRESSURE AS I WOULD HAVE TO APPLY TO OPERATE A LAWN MOWER. MY CHILDREN DO NOT HAVE THIS AMOUNT OF STRENGTH IN ANY LIMB OF THEIR BODIES. IF FOR SOME REASON THEY WOULD BE IN A SITUATION WHERE THEIR LIMB WOULD BE OBSTRUCTING THIS DOOR THEY WOULD NO DOUBT SUFFER EXTREME INJURY. AS A MOTHER THEIR SAFETY REST ON ME AND I FEEL THAT I AM DOING ALL I CAN TO PREVENT AN INJURY WITH THIS SITUATION HOWEVER I TRULY WISH FOR THIS MOTORIZED MECHANISM TO BE THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED. *NM .1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GNDX03E84D.

CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004 car safety problem was reported on Dec 12, 2009.CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . I OWN A 2004 CHEVROLET VENTURE LS. RECENTLY THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN MALFUNCTIONING. THE NEEDLE ON THE SPEEDOMETER WILL JUMP, NOT RETURN TO ZERO WHEN STOPPED, OR WILL STAY STUCK AT A PREVIOUS SPEED. THE SPEEDOMETER IS CURRENTLY NOT WORKING AT ALL. I HAVE PURCHASED A LEADING REPAIR MANUAL AND FOLLOWED THE TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE WHICH LEAD ME TO REPLACE THE VSS (VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR). THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER HOURS OF RESEARCH AND SPEAKING TO SEVERAL MECHANICS, I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A RATHER COMMON DEFECT IN THE ACTUAL GAUGE CLUSTER. ALSO, I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE IS A RATHER LARGE NUMBER OF VENTURE OWNERS THAT HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. BECAUSE THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM RUNS THROUGH THE SPEEDOMETER, A NEW GAUGE CLUSTER MUST BE RE-PROGRAMMED BY THE DEALER MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM MYSELF AT A REASONABLE PRICE. I FEEL THAT BECAUSE THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVROLET VENTURE THAT GM SHOULD RECALL THE DEFECTIVE GAUGES AND FIX THE PROBLEM. FURTHERMORE, I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DRIVER HAS NO WAY OF MONITORING THEIR SPEED IN NORMAL OR HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. ALSO, BASED ON MY RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THE SPEEDOMETER IS THE BEGINNING OF MORE PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE OTHER GAUGES SUCH AS THE FUEL GAUGE AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE. THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM COULD BE AFFECTED ALSO BECAUSE IT USES INFORMATION FROM THE VSS AND THE SPEEDOMETER READING. AN IMPROPER READING ON THE SPEEDOMETER COULD CAUSE A MALFUNCTION IN THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. I USE THIS VEHICLE DAILY TO TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN TO AND FROM SCHOOL AND OTHER FAMILY ACTIVITIES SO SAFETY IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. CERTAINLY I AM RELYING ON THE ADVISE AND EXPERTISE OF ASE CERTIFIED MECHANICS, MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER, AND OTHER DISAPPOINTED CHEVY OWNERS. I WOULD LIKE CHEVROLET AND GM TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS ISSUE, AND IF NECESSARY, CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOU TIME AND ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER. *TR.Mileage was 70125 miles.

FEBRUARY 2009 - BEGINNING OF INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PANEL FAILURE - GAS GAUGE NOT FUNCTIONING. HAVE DOCUMENTATION AT MILEAGE 72,512. CONSEQUENCE - FORCED TO FILL UP AT EVERY GAS PURCHASE AND TRACK MILEAGE UNTIL TIME FOR NEXT FILL UP FOR OVER TWO YEARS. NEVER KNEW FOR CERTAIN HOW MUCH GAS WAS IN THE TANK - VERY STRESSFUL. NOVEMBER 2010 - CONTINUING CLUSTER PANEL FAILURE - SPEEDOMETER MALFUNCTIONING UNTIL COMPLETELY OUT BY JANUARY 2011. CONSEQUENCE - UNABLE TO TELL SPEED - UNWILLING TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE LONG DISTANCES AND FULL CONCENTRATION REQUIRED TO JUDGE SPEEDS BY OTHER TRAFFIC. TAKEN IN MARCH 2011 TO LOCAL DEALER, [XXX], FOR REPLACEMENT OF CLUSTER PANEL AT MY EXPENSE OF OVER $550.00 - BEFORE I AGREED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR THEY ASSURED ME THAT THEY WOULD FLAG THE OLD PANEL FOR DIAGNOSIS INTO THE REASON GAUGES FAILED AS THEY WOULD BE SENDING IT TO GM TO BE REBUILT AND RESOLD. THEY WOULD NOT GIVE THE OLD ONE TO ME UNLESS I PAID THEM FOR IT. THE REPORT THAT I WAS CONSEQUENTLY GIVEN OF THE CAUSE FOR GAUGE FAILURES WAS THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS STUCK AT 100 MPH AND GAS GAUGE WAS STUCK ON EMPTY. I WROTE A LETTER TO GM EXECUTIVE AND WAS ADVISED THAT THEY WOULD BE REIMBURSING ME FOR NO PART OF THE REPAIR COST. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THEY HAD NO WAY OF TRACKING MY OLD PANEL AS I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER. I HAD DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH INTO DEFECTIVE STEPPER MOTORS AND CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS RESULTING IN PARTIAL RECALLS AND KNEW THAT THEY WERE PERFORMING A COVER UP OF OTHER MODELS THAT WERE EFFECTED. THAT IS WHY THEY WERE NOT COOPERATIVE IN DETERMINING THE CAUSE OF MY GAUGE FAILURES.

TRANSMISSION BEGAN SHIFTING HARD IN MARCH 2012 (69998 MILES ON VEHICLE). PROGRESSED TO, SLIPPING WHEN STARTING TO MOVE FROM STOP, AND WOULD CATCH ABRUPTLY CAUSING A LURCH FORWARD. I HAD THE TROUBLE CODES READ, FOUND PO-1811 STORED IN VEHICLE COMPUTER. CONTACTED CHEVY DEALER, AND WAS TOLD TRANSMISSION WAS BAD. THE DEALER STRONGLY SUGGESTED A NEW TRANSMISSION OVER REPAIR/REBUILD, ESTIMATES RANGED FROM $2700.00 TO REPAIR, OR $3000.00 TO REBUILD, AND $3400.00 FOR NEW. ALSO, WAS TOLD THE OLD TRANSMISSION WOULD BE KEPT BY GM AS A "CORE" EVEN WHEN BUYING A "NEW" TRANSMISSION. CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND WAS OFFERED A TEARDOWN AND INSPECTION AT $1500.00 MY COST, WITHOUT ANY PROMISE OF ASSISTANCE FROM GM. FROM THAT POINT, I COULD CHOOSE BETWEEN REPAIR/REBUILD, OR NEW TRANSMISSION AT REGULAR PRICES (EXAMPLE: FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION $2100.00 + $1500.00 FOR TEARDOWN = $3600.00, OR $4200.00 FOR REPAIR, AND $4500.00 FOR REBUILD). AT THAT POINT GM WOULD REVIEW THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION DETAILS FOR POSSIBLE MONETARY COMPENSATION. THE CRITERIA FOR GM'S DECISION INCLUDES "COULD THE FAILURE HAVE BEEN PREVENTED, BY ACTION/S FROM THE OWNER". WAS ALSO INFORMED BY THE DEALER SERVICE WRITER, GM REQUESTS OWNERS SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION AT 100,000 MILE INTERVALS AND NO OTHER SERVICE IS REQUIRED FOR PROPER MAINTENANCE. FURTHER, I WAS ASSURED I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PREVENT THE TRANSMISSIONS FAILURE.

CHEVROLET VENTURE Engine

CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004 Safety Review #10566482

CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004 car safety problem was reported on Oct 14, 2005.CHEVROLET VENTURE 2004, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ENGINE . THE RECENT GM RECALL OF 2004 - 2007 COBALT AND OTHER VEHICLES FOR IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEMS NOW MAKES MY ISSUES IN MY 2004 CHEVROLET VENTURE VAN POTENTIALLY MAKE SOME SENSE. THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES OF THE PROBLEM OVER THE YEARS BUT IT SOUNDS SIMILAR TO TO THE ABOVE RECALL. SOME OF THE INCIDENTS OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY (70 MPH), SOME HAPPENED ON THE DIRT ROADS WE LIVE ON (25 - 35 MPH). THE ENGINE SIMPLY STOPPED - NO POWER OF ANY KIND. THE ENGINE COULD BE RESTARTED BY SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNING THE KEY. IT DID NOT REQUIRE A COMPLETE VEHICLE STOPPAGE (ALTHOUGH IT DID OCCASIONALLY CAUSE A NASTY SQUEAL FROM WHAT I ASSUMED WAS THE STARTER MOTOR). THE CAR WAS PURCHASED USED FROM A DEALER SO I DO NOT KNOW IF THE ISSUE OCCURRED DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF SO OF THE VEHICLES USE. I THINK THE GM INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO OTHER MODELS. VIN CAN BE PROVIDED IF NEEDED..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 35000 miles. Chevrolet Venture 2004 problem was reported in ADA, MI. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 70 mph.
