What Our Members Are Saying about Chevrolet Uplander Materials and Workmanship

Materials and Workmanship of the Chevrolet Uplander: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 The dashboard is hard, dog-dish-like plastic. The carpet stains easily. The interior bits fall off and pull apart. The rear vents come out of the ceiling. It's slapped together. You can tell this was the last minivan GM was going to build, and that they didn't care when building it.
2007 4dr Minivan 240-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Many rattles in this vehicle.
2007 4dr Minivan 240-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Alot of plastic used on the interior, makes it feel uninviting
