CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2000 Chevy Astro Van has a solid reputation with very low complaint rates. The only problem now is finding one with low miles.
Not only is the 2000 Astro Van reliable, but since they were built on a truck powertrain, they can tow 5,500/5,000 lbs (RWD/AWD) -- almost double what other minivans can.
The Chevy Astro is mechanically identical to the GMC Safari.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
My rear hatch door of my 2000 Astro van will not open. All of the locks on my van are not working as they should but at least I can use the inside door handles to get in and out. The hatch has no inside door release so in case of an accident I would never be able to get myself out of the back if that were the only way out. Also, if you are braking and hit a bump the brakes will not work. I have had several close calls because I could not stop the van because of a bumpy intersection and the brakes not holding.
