Four problems related to vehicle speed control have been reported for the 1998 Oldsmobile Bravada. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Internal piece (part number?) of the throttle body (21247) attached to the throttle plate (21465) that is held in by (2) rivets. The 2 rivets failed causing whatever was there to get sucked into the intake manifold. I have the old part with the broken rivets. This was not caused by any foreign object. The total for the repair = $1360. 00.
My vehicle had a complete loss of power while driving. It happened more than once prior to taking it in to the dealership. No dash board lighting, no power steering, no acceleration and braking was very difficult. If I tapped on the steering column the power would sometimes come back on. I do have the paperwork from 2001 when the ignition switch was replaced at the dealership. I believe the ignition problem goes back further that gm knows.
Lost all guages after all dashboard lights came on then went out; also lost power, engine rpm's shot up to 3000 from normal 2000.
Vehicle was stopped in front of curbing, for service. Before engaging "park" engine roared and lunged vehicle thru dealership brickwork.
