We have had several problems. The biggest one being the Transfer Case, which the dealer will not replace. Now at 17,000 miles we are replacing oil coller adapter seal, transfer case seal, and 1st differencial pin seal. I love the looks of this car, but I'm really sorry I bought it now and will probably get rid of it soon.

I bought this thing from a small dealer, mistake #1. Since I have bought it, I have put roughly 15,000 miles on it in almost 20 months. I have had to replace a CO2 pump, oil cooling lines, and both front brake rotors and both front wheel bearings. The check engine light has been on more than I can count. There is a lesson to be learned from buying a vehicle that manufacturer has gone out of business...Don't!

I 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.

Nice SUV!!

Very nice vehicle! Rides very nice, no sway like earlier SUV of its type. The leather seats are very supple and conforming, the lumbar support makes long drives even more comfortable. Excellent rear-round, all utility car, I've got the power moonroof that I use all the time during warm weather. Plenty of storage space, but not too big of a car. The gas mileage could be a little better, but at about 16-17.5 mpg (depending on driving types) I guess it's not too far off of any other large car. It has the power needed when it's needed!! Used the hitch to pull 2 cars out of ditches last year, SmartTrack works great without any buttons to push as well! Recommend this vehicle!!

I have owned this vehicle for a year now and I like it, a lot! The truck rides very nice and handles well, the interior fit and finish is typical GM business, bad. Doors squeak over rough pavement. I really like the front seats, extremely comfy. Power is decent and I average 18 mpg in town. The transmission shifts smoothly. So far I have 102000 miles on it and I love the way it feels. Not as off road ready as I like, and interior quality is poor, but overall, very good buy. You won't be dissappointed.
