  An overall excellent SUV - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By River Ratster - February 8 - 2:00 am

  A very attractively designed vehicle. The overall comfort and ride is vastly improved over the mid-1990s GM SUVs of which I owned one. My experience on reliability for this vehicle has been excellent. The selection of options at time of purchase, in my opinion, was more flexible and superior to many of the competing foreign makes. It is unfortunate that the Oldsmobile division of GM is being discontinued. I recently purchased a new 2004 Bravada.

  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.

  By Tom - December 25 - 2:00 am

  Comfortable, quiet, floats down the road, handles nicely, excellent brakes, sharp looking, powerful, solid feel. I took the car out the door at invoice, less over $3k in rebates! Overall a fantastic job by Oldsmobile!

  By Chris R - November 12 - 2:00 am

  This vehicle is much better than the 1996-2001 model. It truly has a luxury feel to it. I love my new Bravada.

  By luv my olds - September 20 - 10:00 am

  Super vehicle, runs great, looks great, all the toys, and I received 5 years 100,000 km warranty - a nice bonus compared to GMs anemic usual 3 year 60,000 km.

  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.

  Good Old Truck - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Jimmy1 - June 10 - 11:56 pm

  We brought this truck 11/01 using the 0% financing incentive. It was our 6th Oldsmobile and we still own 5 of them. It has serve me well with no major repairs until around 150k miles when the fan clutch started getting noisy. Now at 215k I have spent a total of $4,975 on repairs. Still using second set of tires and on original brakes. We keep it serviced and minor issues repaired, and I still use it everyday and not afraid to travel any distance in it. When it had 125k miles I towed a trailer loaded with a 1960 Ford 4x4 pick-up from northern California to St.Louis, MO with no incidents. Note: in order to replace one of the heaters you have to pull the transmission (thats dumb).

  Ugh - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Judy - June 4 - 10:00 am

  This bravada is my first SUV. Talked my husband out of the Acura MDX due to price/american made. I have logged many hours in the service dept. as well. Problems: Paint job (2x) due to snow/salt in New England, pass. window wont go back up, air leak in pass door. I have had an accident in this truck - airbags did NOT inflate. I am seriously considering trading in - 3 recalls already on truck, one they wont fix until it DIES for no apparent reason?? Shouldve gone foreign...

  2002 Bravada - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By jefandchel - April 11 - 11:53 pm

  I bought this vehicle new and have kept it dealer maintained. It has been and continues to be a great vehicle. 270 horses and a smooth, sporty ride, and the capability to be a real family utility vehicle. I think Ill keep her! (I actually have a new 08 Acadia slt-1 in the driveway that Im test driving) these reviews have assisted me in changing my mind about trading in!
