What 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I bought a used car from the dealer, but the car has a problem. The salesman who sold me the car at the dealer told me that they were going to fix it and they tried to fix it 4 times already. After 4 tries the problem is still there. I think they are waiting for the 30 day guarantee to end before I do anything about it, so then I need to pay for the repairs myself. They keep telling that the car is fixed, but the problem is still there. I can feel the problem every time I drive, and they admit that they can feel it as well, when they test drive the car.
Right upper balljoint broke while driving around 20 miles per hour. I turned a corner going slow and felt a bump. The steering wheel was not turned staight, but the bravada was going straight.
Drivers side front ball joint broke while driving in the rain, car slid, I did manage to miss the semi's tires the car was headed for. After checking the ntsa web page I find that there have been other complaints/recals on the ball joint and suspension system, I have never received any information reguarding this. I did pay dearly to have the one set of ball joint repaired. Is the recall still avaliable for the rest of the ball joints and the suspension system. My car only has 38k miles on it and is falling apart. Please help.
A clunking noise is coming from front end of vehicle. Dealership is aware of problem.
While driving less than 10 MPH, heard a rumbling and vibraiton like a tire had blown out. Consumer tried to get car off the road when passenger's side tire bent inward, and driver's tire went outward. Also, there were no brakes. Consumer coasted to a stop. Took vehicle to dealer who stated that when consumer made a turn, the control arm cut the brake line. *ak consumer states while driving she heard a noise that sounded like the passenger side front tire went flat, whe pulled off to the right when the front end collapsed, consumer stated that she complained about front end problems prior to this incident.
Rear end needs an over hauling, including bearings and pins etc. Contacted dealer, and the dealer was not willing to do anything. Please provide further information.
