1999 Oldsmobile Bravada review from North America
"Not a car I would recommend to anyone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Have had the fluid in the transfer case drained and refilled three times due to a shudder in the vehicle.
Transmission slipping.
Transmission had to be rebuilt.
Vanity mirror cover on passenger side broke off, driver side cover partially broke.
Paint on the luggage rack is peeling.
General comments?
The Bravada is a very classy vehicle, but as far as mechanically, it has been a very disappointing one. When you purchase a vehicle that cost as much as the Bravada, you expect better.
We have had problems with this vehicle since the first week we purchased it, and the owner of the dealership where we purchased it in Waynesboro, GA, was very rude and hateful when we approached him about returning the Bravada.
