Air Conditioner Problems of Chevrolet Venture

Air conditioning condenser leaking. Dealer wants $1000 to repair. This is a known defect on this condenser, bad welds, yet gm takes no fault even though tens of thousands of these have failed. With asthma, I need a/c and this vehicle is no safe without it.

Front brakes failed prematurely--rotors were destroyed at 34,000 miles. Air conditioner condenser failed, gm knew of problem in Dec. Of 2002 but kept quiet until warranty ran out. Needed to replace condenser and dryer with new parts, gm would not help. Fuel gauge doesn't work, have to keep paper ecord of fuel consumption. Rear window washer has failed, does not spray.

3yr old compressor (air conditioner front & rear) )for 2002 chevy Venture leaks which caused us to replace entire unit.

My 2001 chevy Venture's air conditioning condenser obtained a crack, causing the ac fluid to leak out and not function. Vehicle is at 39000 miles and barely out of warranty. Speaking with parts dept at a local dealer, apparently this is a common problem caused by normal flexing of the vehicle's framework, and a costly one to repair (abt $850. 00 parts and labor). The consumer should not need to pay for design defects like this. Ac condensers are not a component that routinely crack, especially in vehicles this new.
