Problems with 2000 Chevrolet Venture STEERING

We own a 2000 chevy venture that we bought used about 4 years ago. when we bought it, the button for the doors to open automatically didn't work as well as the gas gauge. since, we have replaced the heads, the water pump, rack and pinion, wheel hub, tie rod end, as well as replacing the head lights every couple months and now having problems with the brake lights.when we had the heads replaced, they flushed the radiator and we are still having problems with the low coolant light coming on and the fluid looking cloudy. they told us that the cloudiness sometimes happens, but still doesn't explain the light coming on saying its low!!! we were also notified that the abs box is bad and needs replaced...also, sometimes there is water that leaks from the weather gauge or the top of the windshield. also the traction system light comes on and actually shuts the system off when you turn the van on, this maybe due to the bad abs box but has been doing this longer then the abs light has been on. there is also rust along the van below the sliding doors. the locks also sometimes stick when using the keypad or the electrical lock button inside the van. we can't wait to get rid of this van! just hope we have better luck with our next vehicle. *tr

In the past 2 years i have had to have the tie rods replaced on the front of my 2000 chevrolet venture twice.

The steering column locked up. please provide additional information. dealer is aware of the problem. ph

Electrical failure caused the steering wheel to lock while my wife was driving the vehicle. the key was in the ignition and the mini van was traveling approximately 35 mph. my wife had no directional control of the mini van and we are very fortunate that there wasn't an accident. there is no reason that the steering column should have locked up. the cause of the electrical failure is still being investigated by the parker robb chevrolet in walnut creek, ca 94596. *ak
