1997 Oldsmobile Bravada review from North America
"I got a great car at a great price and still own it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Crack in plastic on radiator diagnosed as head gasket failure by dealer at 146,000 miles.
At 155,000 miles, the wipers can't decide if it is delay or on.
General comments?
This Bravada has been the best vehicle I have ever owned (I am 56 years old). Very reliable on long trips or daily travel to work.
