The very rear vent is an air inlet and should always be clear so incoming air is not restricted which can cause the fan motor to burn out.
Left front hub bearing
both front sway bars, links and bushings
the power steering reservior (it was leaking)
power steering return lines
Well after all that the cars is still whining/groaning at slow speeds and worstens in the damp weather. Of course the shop had it today (sunny and 75) and claims that they canot replicate the noise. I really want to scream. :mad:
My Mother had this same sound in a 1997 Lumina and it ended up being a bolt in her rear axel that sheared in half.
You realize that the harder the pad,the longer they last, but the quicker your rotors are finished

As to the ceramic pad question, my Bonneville came with them and when they went, I replaced them with ceramics as well. One very nice thing is the minimal amount of brake dust. I did have the rotors turned as they were very lightly scored but they certainly weren't worn out after 83,000 miles.
How do I determine if this is an electrical problem or a clutch/compressor problem.
Any help very much appreciated. My wife is going crazy not having AC in the van !!!
Thanks
I always try to look for an exposed live wire touching ground.
Town & Country LX is in the shop. As for the groaning noise, I did some research and found that there is a technical service bulletin on the power steering.
I quote the description in the bulletin:
"Moan/foghorn-like sound while turning at slow speed or parking lot maneuvers."
The bulletin's NHTSA number is 1901104.
I had the van in the same shop about 6 wks ago to look at this problem and they said the fluid was low! I knew this was wrong. The ultimate fix is to replace some fluid lines and add a cooler to the system.
I hope this helps.

Questioning the dealership about the wiper motor recall revealed it it true, but they will call when the motors come in.
