CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2003 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 2003 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.
The keyed locks are difficult to lock unlock with key. Rear hatch doesn't release properly. Hood release doesn't open hood immediately. Power door locks doesn't lock or unlock reliably when gear shifter is engaged or disengaged. Fuel door is difficult to open.
