This car is all wheel drive. The front hubs seem to only last about 20k miles. There is less than 60k miles on the car. It needs new hubs this will be the 3rd set on the car. This could be dangerous if they fail.

I just purchased my 2000 bravada in december of 2002 and it had less than 25,000 miles on it. I do not do heavy driving, mostly open road and no towing, and was very surprised when all of a sudden my transmission went out two months and 1,700 miles after the power train warranty expired. When I called the dealership and talked to the repair person he knew what was wrong even before I told him (the reverse and overdrive went out but the other drives were fine) and he said that this was a common problem with bravadas. Imagine my surprise! Then oldsmobile indicated they would only pay for 50% of the repair. I am currently trying to work with them to cover it all because it is obviously a defect in the transmission and is not an isolated incident. I hadn't heard anything about this, but now that I look on the internet there are quite a few people who have had similar problems. The company should be taking care of this.
