Intake manifold gasket - needed replaced with less than 70K miles on van. Heater fan dashboard switch - when set on floor heat only, it blows out both at the defroster and the floor. Windshield wiper motor - after it stopped working, we grounded the motor and it started working again - now it works intermittently, but not when you usually need it most. Driver's side window motor - failed and required replacement. Air conditioning tube - became brittle and broke - repaired it and the A/C works correctly again.

Alternator had to be replaced. Then, air conditioner was blowing hot air, and consumer took vehicle to a repair shop. They told her that intake manifold was rubbing against a block connecting with air conditioning unit, and this was causing air conditioning coolant to run out onto the ground.
