Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Driving down the highway my van over heated and stalled with no prior warning. i had to replace my head gaskets, lower intake, all my spark plugs and spark plug wires. i had no leaks that i was aware of. nothing on the gorund to even suspect a leak. apparently i was leaking so bad internally that 2 of my spark plugs crapped out and my van refused to run. from what i read this is a fairly common complaint among venture owners. i really love my van but this flaw will prevent me from buying another one, which i fully intended on doing in a few year. sorry gm but i'll go with a honda next time. *ak
