Needs some help - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Douglas Jones - September 9 - 2:00 amWe replaced our 93 Jeep Grand Cheeroke with this in late 2001. Its a nice looking car and rides nice, but we really an SUV that can handle offroad. The tilting rear view mirrors never return to the correct spot even after having the dealer fix them. Both seats have completely stopped working at least once. The front end is all weak plastic. I hit a deer at less then 5 MPH and did $2500 woth of damage. Off road/snow driving with the stock Michelins isnt better then may front wheel drive Taurus. Cant even go 300 miles on a tank of gas. It is very comfortable but its just not the SUV we hoped. Well probably take a bath and go back to a Jeep.

Why GM is failing - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Chrs - July 27 - 10:36 pmThis has been the absolute worst car I have ever purchased. A complete money pit and lemon since day one. A car that was bought with only 60,000 miles has had these problems all within a few months of purchase: A/C failure, alternator/belt tensioner failure, wiper motor failure, emergency belt failure, transfer case leak, excessive belt squeal, CV joint failure, and numerous other problems. Save your money and buy a reliable and dependable Japanese car. At least the Japanese take pride in there work. I am now only going to buy Nissan, Toyota, or Honda vehicles.

Absolute Junk - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
By X Bravada Owner - July 9 - 2:00 amI have owned over 40 vehicles, including 3 Bravadas. This is absolutely the worst vehicle I have ever owned. I bought it used with 8K miles on it and drove it for a year. I had nothing but trouble with it from day one, when the fiberglass fan disintegrated and took out the radiator. Little did I realize that this was the just the start of a long and meaningful relationship with my GM service department. Fortunately my dealer thought we were seeing a little too much of each other and worked with me to make me a fair deal on a Buick Rendezvous (great vehicle). I can see why GM dumped the line.

run away from this suv - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Cindy - June 28 - 8:36 amBought this suv in 2004 with very little mileage I have had nothing but problems with it.. The idle arms have been replaced more than once very hard on the wheel barrings. I keep good maintenance but this was a lemon. I had to replace the door hinges and it cost me $1200 alone for that. The transmission going now... Have a short in the dash inside lights on dash when they want. My gas gauge also works when it wants to, the 4 wheel is going out of it. It would be easier to list what does work and what doesnt work or has needed replaced. My mechanic told me to get rid of it 2 years ago I had so much into it I thought for sure it would be ok I should of listened to him this suv is bad...

Poor choice - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Lauralita - May 16 - 2:00 amI live near Lansing, MI where olds is touted as the king of GM... its the luxury priced mid- size SUV with luxury priced repair bills. Ive spent over $2000 in repairs. I still have to replace gas gauge sensor, weather stripping/seal. At 62,000 mi, the transmission was rebuit to the tune of over $1000, at my cost. Ive never been in an accident or in the ditch, yet had to replace both front wheel bearings. 3 months after the tranny went bad, yet another expensive gas fuel senser went bad.... sorry...but Ive had it with this one...poor investment for a $38,000 vehicle.

The True Olds Bravada - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Say NO to GM - May 14 - 10:00 amThe Body integrity is very bad and the Auto is a gas guzzler. The SUV has very little acceleration ability.

Look elsewhere - 2001 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Christova - January 31 - 2:00 amI greatly regret my investment in a 2001 Bravada, especially after considering the horribly low resale value(I paid 34,000, worth less than 15,000 a mere two years later) and the terrible build quality. It is two years old but may as well be 10 the way it is falling apart. The Bose stereo is now useless as the door plastic rattles at higher bass like the speakers on a $10 walkman. I have had it in for service numerous times including problems that they just cannot fix. For instance, if you crank the wheel and back up, the truck grinds and grates and just today it did the same when I pulled forward and cranked the wheel.

Very Poor Vehicle - 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada
By Vince U. - December 8 - 10:00 amThis was my first SUV. I purchased it because I get discounts on GM vehicles. The problems I have had, greatly exceed the value of the discount. SUV died for no reason one week after purchase. GM couldnt figure out why and was only able to "fix it" by disengaging wires. GM admits this was a "temporary fix", but never did anything else. Security light is always on on the dash along with numerious others, rain sensor quit, rear wiper never goes back into harness, terrible knocking when making sharp turns and constant stalling issues are some of the problems that plague this vehicle. Cant wait to turn it in a buy an Explorer.
