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.

Vehicle would dip forward and left to right depending on the incline of the road, feels top heavy, stabilizer bars need to be installed to hold the body from leanning off the frame, almost resulting in control lost.
