CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2001 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 2001 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.

I have had a miss when vehicle is warm. Dealer says it is fuel, but I am using the recommended fuel according to dealer. The check engine light comes on and then goes off. Dealer cannot locate problem. This is an ongoing issue since I have purchased it. Also had to replace front brake pads and shocks at 26000 miles. After approximately one year use.
