Are you planning to buy a used Chevy Uplander van? In this buyers guide / review I am talking about three most common issues and failures on this vans and what I as a used car salesman look at when deciding if I will purchase a used Chevrolet Uplander from an auction or a private sale.
( 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | LS | LT | LT2 | LTZ ).

Things I look at Chevy Uplander are:
1. Rust (liftgate edge, bottom of sliding doors, rocker panels)
2. Power Steering (leaks, noises, power steering pump, rack and pinion)
3. Transmission (leaks, shifting pattern, slipping gears)

Above mentioned are 3 most common problems with used Chevy Uplander from my experience. If following my advice from the video I believe you can get a nice chevy van for your family.

Power Steering problems on Chevrolet Uplanders are most common out of mentioned above. Always make sure to check rack for any bigger leaks and power steering pump for any noise. Make sure to check power steering fluid level as well. It is a quite expensive fix.

Rust issues on Chevy Uplander are common. Rust is easy to spot, so look at spots I showed.

Transmission problems are often if the van is not regularly maintained and transmission filter regularly replaced. Try to get service records and if you decide to buy Uplander do the transmission flush.

Thanks for watching.
