I have had 2 venture vans they both had the same problems. the windshield wipers are stuck up,they work just when you turn them off they stay up. also the gas light does not work. it stays on full then out of no were you are on empty. you never know how much gas you. i had a 2001 chevy venture and now i have a 2004 chevy venture van i really think there is a problem. *tr
2004 chevy venture - gas gauge jumps wildly , gives inaccurate readings. doesn't seem associated with the fuel pump sending unit. appears to be electrically shorting, as when it park it will bounce up and down and it just seems as some sort of current problem.. started 1 year ago. to know the fuel level, we track the mileage manually. *tr
