Bought this truck in 09 with 98,000 miles. Now at 139,000 and the only thing, other than regular maintenance, I’ve had to do is replace the rear air bags (not compressor) and a wiper motor last year. It starts every time, even when it’s 5 degrees outside. I’ve never charged the A/C. Fun to drive and so smooth on the highway. On long road trips I was tracking 22mpg! In town mpg nothing special at 16. Paint still shines and no rust even though I drive in snow and it sits outside all year.

After reading other reviews, I was stunned that people were disappointed after owning this vehicle. Mind you, this vehicle is not for everyone. But my wife and I were looking for a comfortable midsize SUV that did not have a third row. The Bravada is extremely comfortable and easy in its ride.

Brilliant Bravada

I've owned the car since 2004 - I purchased it from CarMax with 24,000 miles on it and now have 60,000. I've haven't had single problem with the vehicle. I've kept up with regular maintenance. It's been a remarkably safe, reliable, and strong vehicle. The exterior looks like new. I haven't used it to tow anything, however, it has a strong engine that will move quickly at all speed ranges. It's great on snow and gravel roads. I haven't taken it off road, but in 6 inch mud it crawls along fine. I wish Olds didn't fold - they are the highest quality GM make aside from Cadillac in my eyes.
An overall excellent SUV

A very attractively designed vehicle. The overall comfort and ride is vastly improved over the mid-1990's GM SUV's of which I owned one. My experience on reliability for this vehicle has been excellent. The selection of options at time of purchase, in my opinion, was more flexible and superior to many of the competing foreign makes. It is unfortunate that the Oldsmobile division of GM is being discontinued. I recently purchased a new 2004 Bravada.

This is my third Bravada (1997, 2000, 2002).I really like the styling and performance. Three problems to date: The memory mirror sometimes get forgetful, bad paint job on the hood when I took delivery and now having paint problems with lower panel behind the back door, and now have an intermittent shrill whistling sound from the passenger side front wheel area. Dealer says it is not the brakes???, but the owners manual sure indicates that is the problem. Have 3200 miles on the vehicle. Anyone else have this problem??? I am concerned about a safety problem here.
