Three problems related to power train have been reported for the 1999 Oldsmobile Bravada. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I am writing this complaint because I have come across some issues with my transmission and cruise control. I got to looking into it and seen where there were some recalls for the same problems on the same year model of my vehicle. I have called around and they are telling me because of my VIN number they cant do anything, but it is the same year model and I am having the same issues. The service engine light wont go off, it wont shift into overdrive, it doesn't shift right, it feels like it shifts into neutral on its on. Sometimes it feels like it doesn't register it being in drive when I go to take off, seems like it has a rough idle, and the cruise control does not work anymore. I would like something to be done about this because I need my vehicle fixed. ## VIN passed ## Oldsmobile Bravada 1999 ##.
Paint is progressively peeling off the luggage rack. Bodyshop commented "it doesn't look like it was coated/sealed properly, this shouldn't be happening. " transmission: driving on hwy car started smoking out exhaust, exited hwy and car shifted "hard" from stop thru acceleration. Got to aamco shop, they scanned and got an "1870 code". Upon inspection discovered the pump assy was "chewed up and burnt steel. " fluid was being forced out the filler tube and the fluid was black. I was told there was a high danger that the fluid could have ignited. I had absolutely no warning signs that something was wrong with the transmission until the car started smoking. I am a street driver, never have towed or gone off roading in this vehicle so no undue stress or wear has been put on the trans. The response I get from the finance company and the dealer is "it's bad luck, a fluke, etc. And the car isn't under warranty. " I am going to perservere in my efforts to get gm involved and hopefully they will do the right thing.
