Was on the interstate after driving approximately 1. 5 hours when service engine soon light appeared. When I slowed down to in-town speeds the van drove very rough and would often stall when at a stop light. Took it to gm shop to find out that the rocker arm post had pulled out of the cylinder head #4. Gm wanted to charge me over $2000 to repair. Instead the offered to repair with a "heli-coil" and gm picked up all charges. 10 months later driving again on the interstate went to pass another vehicle and the service engine soon light appeared again. Was able to get to a gm service shop. They found another rocker arm post had pulled out of a cylinder head #6. They did a "heli-coil" replacement again which I paid for. Both shops have said this should never happen during the lifetime of a vehicle, yet it happened twice in mine. In a car less than 5 years old no less. Is there a manufacturing defect in these engines to cause such a significant failure?.

Ticking begin at around 45000 to 50000 miles on 1998 Venture, soon it needed bearings and rods, the mechanic took off the oil pan and oil was like mud, I have oil changed every 3000 miles, I saw the oil, it was awful, then one day the oil light came on and the service engine light and at around 70000 miles I need new engine, I have always been a general motors person mainly cherolet, but, as of now, I am thinking it will be a cold day in ---- before I buy another, I see why the foreign motor companies are kicking butt. . . I am not the 1st to have a problem with the Ventures. . I have been told that the maifold is leaking into the oil system there by causing this problem with engines blowing. . . I do not know what to do, I have 4 children 2 of whom are in college and 2 at home, I can't just race out and buy a new one, which chevy offered to maybe give me a little off if I wanted to buy a new one.
