Used 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada Consumer Reviews
DON'T GO HERE!
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 it's been a nightmare. Replaced Radiator/Radiator Fan, actuator, computer modules, steering column switches...on and on...DON'T BUY ONE! One year later it is only worth $11-12k and I'm going to lose my shirt on this one!
Dad Sold Me a Lemon!
I know he didn't mean to, but it's 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 don't take lots of trips so the mileage on this is EXCEPTIONALLY LOW)! When it's 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, I've been keeping him very busy. My only hope at this point is "Bank of Dad" will "write off" the loan on this vehicle till he's ready to sell me his new Cadillac!

Good Car for the price
Nice car for the money but the styling is a little outdated
Get a Warranty
I purchased my Oldsmobile Bravada in April of 2005, 2 months later it was completely immobile. I'm finally getting it back now after a $2,000 transmission repair (at 85,000 miles). I love the vehicle, but there is a vast history of transmission problems - be sure to purchase a warranty.
Bravad Review
All in all, I really enjoy driving my Bravada!
Love My Bravada
I love this car. I shopped around for a new car this year (2003) and couldn't fine a vehicle in its class that could compare. I like the looks inside and out. Handles better than the newer SUVs that have replaced it around corners. Plush interior stays clean and looks brand new 3 years later. Have had minor problems, but were all fixed by Dealer under warranty so who cares!
luv the Olds
great handling, smooth power, tight body, good looks very usuable space, well thought out vehicle! I know it's a jazzed up Blazer, but has more class and looks and is that much differant with smarttrac to boot. Great family vehicle without getting a monster suv.
Fun to Drive / Buy the Extended Warranty
I purchased the extended warranty that covered the vehicle for 75,000. It turned out to be a great investment due to several problems that occured after the 36,000 mile warranty. I like the vehicles appearance and the Smart Track all wheel drive is a blessing during Iowa winters.

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.
Don't Buy It
Bought the vehicle for my wife with 36,000 miles on it, and all I can say is thank God for the extended warranty. The all wheel drive started acting up soon after we got it. I have had to replace the whole front end, rear leaf springs, differential seals, crank seals, and they still can't figure out what is wrong with the electrical system or the A/C system. I have always been a GM guy but I must say if they keep building them like this I may have to switch. Looking forward to getting rid of this lemon. Take my word on this don't ever buy one of these SUVs. This thing also sucks down the gas, I get better economy out of my full size pick up truck.
