  Love The Look - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By john2551 - June 26 - 7:53 am

  I purchased a 2000 Bravada about three months ago. It only had 55,000 miles on it and was a good deal (so I thought). It looks and drives good but I cant depend on it at all. I just had 2,000 in repairs for the differential, and now the air conditioner is going bad. I love the car but I should have known better then to buy it, I just didnt want an Explorer or a Mountineer.

  I Love this suv, the all wheel drive is better most high end system like , lexus,bmw,mer,. it is a true wheel drive suv, no one wheel driving the front and rear wheel. the ride is smooth. had no trouble so far.

  03 Olds Bravada - 2003 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By fordde - July 17 - 10:00 am

  After 27,000 miles the vehicle has no pick-up, engine races when you accelerate. The A/C has failed multiple times - but only when Ambient is greater 85 degrees. The rear window wiper rarely touches the glass. The windshield wiper malfunctioned dispensing a galln of fluid on the road while the vehicle was in motion... dont get this or its cousin the trailblazer.

  Lemon of all time - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By robert sachs - July 7 - 7:00 pm

  I have owned quite a few vehicles over the years. I used to be a hard line GM man. But due to this lemon, I am now considering something other than GM. The Bravada has cost me more in repairs than all the vehicles combined I have owned, in excess of $4000. I have fixed or repaired almost every thing you can imagine. You just finish having something fixed and something else breaks down. It is justice that the Big Three go down. As much as I hate to say it, if you build junk eventially the consumer will have his day. Goodbye GM

  super car - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By john C - January 7 - 5:06 am

  this is my first SUV, it is awsome to drive although i quickly found out how much Gas an SUV will run through. the only problems are the gas and the ride. the ride is smooth and awsome, although on longer trips i soon get annoyed by the slight sway of the vehicle. any pothole, bump, or crack in the road causes the car to sway mildly. the wind roar isnt any thing to brag about either. as for exterior it is good, just like a trailblazer which i love. the headlights are ugly but it doesnt matter to me. i love this car, it is luxurious yet competitive. great car.

  2002 Bravada Problems - 2003 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Bikehawk47 - August 8 - 10:00 am

  We have had numerous quality problems. The dealer has yet to fix one on the first trip. One problem was that the "brake" lite on the dash came on while driving. It would only go off if we turned the car off. After 3 trips a short was finally found We also have twice replaced the plastic molding around the drivers inside door handleand it still keeps popping out in the matter of 3 days, we had the drivers power seat track break and the fuel guage stop working The vehicle got so far out of alignment that the front tires were ruined. The access door to the oil filter has broken.

  Lemon - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Former GM customer - July 27 - 2:00 am

  Worst vehicle Ive ever bought. GM just repurchased it..... after I got an attorney. In the shop on a regular basis. Transfer case shutter, transmission replaced, front end noise, light out on instrument panel, leak in back liftgate, almost had an accident because it didnt accelerate due to transmission problems. It was nice..... when it worked. Horrible build quality. Have always bought GM until now. Just replaced this with a Toyota. Doubt Ill ever buy GM again.

  Not my fave - 2001 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Paula - March 9 - 3:03 am

  I only owned my Bravada 18 months because we had to frequently replace the ignition sensor. Fortunately the warranty covered it so I only had to pay the deductible. We had bought other used cars from the dealer and decided to trade it in. We really didnt want to have it go out again (that would be the 4th time) and it would have quaified for the Missouri lemon law.
