At 66k, the automatic transmission went. ($2k)
At 75k, the heater wouldn't pump through the floor vents. ($300)
At 80k, all the stock speakers blew within a month of each other. ($100)
At 85k, the fifth cylinder began to constantly misfire ($2k)
At 90k, the automatic transmission went. ($2k)
At 100k, the both front rotar calipers ceased working - while I was on the highway. ($900)
At 110k, the automatic transmission went. (under warranty)
At 130k, the water pump died. ($2.5k)
At 135k, the automatic transmission went. ($2k)
At 140k, the front driver's side seat broke a rod. The seat back would not stay up (so I was driving without a backrest). ($100)
At 160k, the power steering went. ($1k)
At 165k, the automatic transmission went. (under warranty)
At 180k, the automatic transmission went. (we junked the van)

No lie - 6 transmissions over the course of 12 years. I'd have gotten rid of it, but it was my parents' car, and my dad just kept pouring money into it. Idiot.
Thats weird my parent have to same van(I drive it sometimes) and the auto tranny went at 200K and the van is almost at 300K and it is still running ok, but I think this one is ready to let go! only other problem was the water pump. Besides the shit loads of rust the van has been a good little van!
