  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.

  Oldsmobile Bravada 4.3 AWD - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Pawel - February 17 - 1:23 pm

  Ive had ups and downs with this car. I love the car because of all the memories I have had with it. It actually has help up pretty well I guess you can say. But the quality of this car. I have to say GM did a very poor job. I have had to replace so many things on this car, it was probably not even worth it. I could of probably paid off another car with that money. the most stupid feature that I hate is the air pump that apparently is defective in all Blazers and Bravada models 96-01.

  DONT GO HERE! - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By ALJONES99 - April 14 - 10:00 am

  SVC AWD Light has stayed on since 1 week after purchase. Made numerous trips to dealership. Purchased 2000 Bravada in April 2001 with only 18k miles and its been a nightmare. Replaced Radiator/Radiator Fan, actuator, computer modules, steering column switches...on and on...DONT BUY ONE! One year later it is only worth $11-12k and Im going to lose my shirt on this one!

  Headache - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Cindy - June 17 - 11:03 pm

  I go through wheel bearings every year on this. The gas gauge has not worked since it had 65,000 miles. At 70,000 miles the door hinges needed replaced over $500 for that. Now at 94,000 miles the 4 wheel drive is not working. This vehicle has cost me nothing but money. I would not recommend it at all. Numerous other small things has gone wrong with it. and i keep it well maintained and i still have nothing but problems with it.

  Money Pit - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Money Pit - September 7 - 12:13 am

  I bought this from a bank repo. It was pristene with 39k miles. First year had to replace the ball joints, pitman arm and idler arm. Figured poor maintenance by previous owner. AWD started to chatter, serviced at dealership, along with shocks $1300. Wiper pump shot ($16). Fixed it myself. Catalytic Conv ($550) AWD malfunction, shift motor and sensors ($1400). 86k miles, transmission out with no hint of trouble ($2000). Door hinges @ 60k ($500,)MPG about 16 on the highway, 8 in town. Brake service about once a year ($400). Defrost malfunction last 2 years ($100 x 2) Starter ($600). Ive had to repair things on this vehicle that Ive never had to repair on any other vehicle Ive owned. Unreliable.

  Dad Sold Me a Lemon! - 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada
  By Maeve - August 3 - 7:03 am

  I know he didnt mean to, but its been one headache after another with this one! Fuel injection, brake lines, fuel lines, alternator, ball joints and the transfer case may be next - all with less than 50,000 miles on it (I work close to home and dont take lots of trips so the mileage on this is EXCEPTIONALLY LOW)! When its running properly, it IS fun to drive, it makes New England winters a breeze in the snow and ice. Thank Goddess I live next door to my auto mechanic, Ive been keeping him very busy. My only hope at this point is "Bank of Dad" will "write off" the loan on this vehicle till hes ready to sell me his new Cadillac!
