As I was on the way home from work driving on a city street and I came to a stop I downed my windows. I realized a burning smell. A little later, as I pulled up to my house the smell seemed to had gotten worse and I got out of the car and upped my hood. There had seem to be oil leakage but I'm not sure it was late. I'm not a mechanic but I kind of know a bit. From my inspection I may have oil leaking on a hot exhaust manifold. The burning smell IS not the strongest but its sensible. I am very scared to drive my vehicle and I hope for it not to catch fire. I service my vehicle for regular oil changes and things and I don't understand the issue. May it be my valve cover gasket? I'm scared for my life to drive my nieces to school now. Unfortunately, they have been catching the carta bus. It hurts my heart I have this problem with such a reliable gm car. Please help. I'm terrified it may even catch fire in the driveway!

On or about april 17TH, as I was turning of the main road onto my cul-de-sac, I tapped the brakes to slow and the pedal went to the floor. I immediately pulled the shifter into low to slow down and then to neutral as I came to my driveway. turned into the driveway and applied the emergency brake to come to a stop. upon examining the vehicle, I determined that the brake line for the drivers side rear caliper had rusted out and was leaking profusely. the timing was very fortunate as I was on a main road before the brakes went out and if I had the need to come to a rapid stop a few moments earlier, I would have more than likely been involved in a serious accident. I know this IS an older vehicle, but I saw a notice that this same issue IS occurring with other gm vehicles of this age and wanted to let you know that I experienced this as well. The car has been very well maintained and IS a very low mileage car which should not be suffering from brake lines which rust through from the inside out. if you do require a recall of the vehicles for this purpose, please don't leave oldsmobiles out just because the brand has been discontinued. thank you *tr

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. *tr

Transmission reaction sun shell failure occurred when entering highway at legal speed. Avoided accident, but condition IS extremely dangerous and somewhat common to all gm 4l60e transmissions. Dealer diagnosed failure and stated that this was a common failure in this transmission due to a defective design of the reaction sun shell. Part IS improperly welded/heat-treated. Gm has redesigned the part and offers goodwill repairs at their discretion. Gm decided that my dealer-maintained vehicle was not worthy of a goodwill repair?, although the service manager recommended transmission replacement due to the pristine condition of my vehicle. Cost $2152 to repair, but how many accidents or deaths has this event caused over the last ten years? I would believe at least one and gm has escaped the recall this part failure deserves. Car has been maintained by dealer in accordance with required intervals. Transmission flush IS not recommended until 100,000 miles, but this vehicle has had fluid flushes; by the dealer, @ 35K and 78K. Failure occurred 4 months after service @ 82k.*jb

On 11 apr 2005, I purchased a 1999 oldsmobile bravada from a nh dealer, with approx. 74000 miles on it. Within one week, the vehicle was returned for a bad water pump, and driver's window switch. During the week of 21 april, I had the alternator replaced. This vehicle had a nh state inspection sticker, but it has yet to pass a ma state inspection. The air injection pump that assists in the air/fuel mix has been updated by gm, but their "update" allows them to call it something other than a recall, so, it would cost me an additional $400-500. For this "update". in sep of 2005, I noticed a gradually growing noise from the front end. I was told the entire front end was wiped out. The safety issues alone were exhaustive. The following had to be replaced, and were done, to the cost of $1700.: pitman arm / idler arm / upper, lower ball joints / cv joints,axles,boots/ entire front hub assemblies / front brakes (rotors,pads,calipers) / 4 tires currently, the driver's front door IS sagging due to poor door pins and bushings. Maaco wants $1200. To replace the hinges, pins, and bushings, and repair/replace the striker plate and surrounding area. The directional signal sounds constantly even without using the signal, and goes away when you step on the brake (!?) the key frequently gets stuck in the ignition and won't come out. Last month yet another alternator had to go in as the other failed. I had this back in the shop yesterday 01feb06 for a banging sound coming from the front end, and the technician advised me that he called gm. They confirmed there IS a defective front torsion bar in these blazer-type vehicles. The technician stated it would cost me around $250. It never ends. I am truly exhausted both mentally and financially with this car. Please provide any assistance you can. The dealer won't take it back, will not assist, and gm does not want anything to do with me. They won't even take my call. I truly fear for my and my family's safety. *jb

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.

The heater has failed to work this year at all. The system was flushed and radiator fluid changed with oldsmobile rated fluids. This vehicle has had no major problems and has been good other than seatbelts not locking and dome lights are inoperable. I am going to assume it could be the heater valve and get that replaced so hopefully that does the trick.

While I was driving my 1999 oldsmobile bravada felt like a tire had gone flat.. After noticing the problem I went to pull over and the entire SUV pulled to the right almost hitting a parked boat. When I exited the vehicle I noticed the passangers side tire was sideways.. Half underneath the truck. I checked with the dealership who I bought the truck from and there not willing to help for free as I dont have a warranty.. Even though this IS the second problem ive had with the vehicle since I bought it 8 months prior. I checked with a mechanic and they said the axle was broken and the bearings and ball joints could be busted. Lucky for me I wasn't on the highway where I had been 20 minuites prior and heading back to.*ak

I have a 1999 oldsmobile bravada that has developed a serious leak in the oil lines (hoses) going to the oil cooler. I also owned a 2000 GMC sonoma that developed the same leaks while under warranty. my mechanic said they have replaced the oil lines on several vehicles with the 4.3 and 350 engines. they have also replaced 3 engines where the oil lines failed and the engine lost all oil. it seems this problem exists on nearly all if not all of gm's products using the rubber oil lines. can anything be done to correct this problem or reimburse our repair costs due to an apparent defect? not to mention the damage to the engines and garage floors. thank you ron. *la

I have a 1999 oldsmobile bravada of which I have just found out there IS a tsb on its transmission stuck in 3RD gear/reverse reaction shell brakage. I have inquired with GMC and a local dealership and neither told me of this. my vehicle only has 40,000 miles on it and according to the tsb, oldsmobile service personnel IS required to repair it free of charge but they have offered me a 50/50 split. I feel this IS unacceptable. my car IS still considered brand new even though my 36,000/3yr warranty IS up and with the amount of miles it has on it, it should not be having a transmission problem. I did not read about a warranty clause related to the tsb and feel oldsmoble IS not honoring the tsb as it IS stated. I have been told by both oldsmobile and the dealership repair to my vehicle IS imperative.*ak

1999 oldsmobile bravada - front left control arm ball joint broke. result in front suspension collapsing. top of tire went inward. my vehicle was built in may 1999 at general motors plant in moriane, ohio. research on the internet show this problem has existed on this and similar gm vehicles since 1996. a recall was done on them. (Gm recall bulletin ? Subject 01048a ? Upper ball joint separation issued october, 2001) (also reference odi action number rq02-012) however I called oldsmobile (1-800-222-1020) and they said no recall on my car was issued. I was told recalls are done on individual cars, not lots of cars, as I would have expected. further research show cars in this part of the county where salt IS used on roads in the winter have a high probability of this problem developing. since this problem has existed for 8 year I feel this should be the responsibility of the manufacturer to engineer a solution, especially since this IS a known problem. nhtsa needs to do a complete investigation for the publics safety. had I been traveling on a highway when this broke this could have been another ford explorer rollover fiasco. when I called oldsmobile and asked if I could talk to the regional manager for this area the person I talked to said the regional managers do not talk to the general public. what kind of public relations IS that? *nlm

- 10114443This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that have an inaccurate fuel gauge. Technician should drive the vehicle to duplicate the concern. The fuel gauge will have a tendency to falsely indicate a lower fuel level than what is actually present. The fuel gauge will take a few minutes to show the correct fuel level. On vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission no buffering takes place when the transmission is in park or neutral. This is a normal characteristic and no repairs are necessary. On vehicles equipped with a manual transmission the fuel gauge is buffered in all gears and neutral. There is a timer which starts to count up when the clutch is depressed. When this timer reaches its calibrated value the buffering stops. This is a normal characteristic and no repairs are necessary.

Technician should ensure that all modules that are replaced are programmed per currently published Service Information. Technician should also check the Sensing and Diagnostic Module part number if it was replaced.
- 10112600This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician with the axel setup information from American Axle Manufacturing. Technician should be advised that the maximum pinion shim to be used or stacked behind the pinion is 0.050?, and the minimum pinion shim is 0.020? for an 8.6 axle. The range for available pinion depth shims for the 10.5? axle is 0.006? to 0.024?. When setting the backlash it should be set between 0.003? to 0.005? on a new ring and pinion for any American Axle Manufacturing application. The ring and pinion can be reused or adjusted if the mileage is less than 500 miles, if not used for towing. Technician should be advised that a ?roller coaster? or ?hourglass? pattern on the bearings may be normal up to 10,000 miles and possibly longer. With a mis-machined housing you may get a heel pattern on both sides of the gear teeth at build up can generally be corrected with backlash adjustments. When setting up an 8.6? axle with a 5 cut gear set is to use a 0.035? pinion shim and set backlash to 0.004?. When using the newer 2 cut gear set also use a 0.035? pinion shim and still set backlash to 0.004?. To set the gear pattern use backlash to adjust the pattern heel to toe. Use the pinion shim to adjust the height of the pattern. The proper drive pinion bearing pre-load is from 15 - 30 inch pounds with new bearings. The total torque to turn after the differential case is installed should increase 5 - 10 inch pounds at the pinion. A new pinion nut must be used whenever the old one is removed. The axle shaft end play specification is 0.012? per side and the radial specification is 0.002? - 0.003?. Technician should be advised that synthetic lube can be used in all new American Axle Manufacturing axle assemblies. The new pinion seal for the 8.6? axle assembly is a two piece design.
