CarComplaints.com Notes: You know the phrase "they just don't make 'em like they used to?" They weren't talking about the Safari specifically, but it definitely qualifies.

It's rare to see such an old van with so little complaints. Not to mention this thing can tow up to 5,500lbs. The only real area of concern is the brakes, but some would say that's just because the Safari can't be stopped.

While vehicle is in reverse it accelerated forward until applied brakes. Dealer has been notified, and mechanic stated the rpms have been lowered that was why vehicle was accelerating.
