Recall Date	Component	Summary
2003-03-31	SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY	CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH A DRIVER’S SEAT BELT BUCKLE ASSEMBLY THAT CONTAINS AN ENERGY-ABSORBING LOOP. SUSTAINED LOADS OF SUFFICIENT MAGNITUDE AND DURATION ON THE BELT IN SEVERE CRASHES COULD FULLY DEPLOY THE BUCKLE ENERGY-ABSORBING LOOP, INTRODUCING A TOTAL OF 10 ADDITIONAL INCHES OF WEBBING INTO THE SEAT BELT SYSTEM. THE FREE FALLING LATCH PLATE USED IN THIS SYSTEM MAY ALLOW WEBBING TO DYNAMICALLY DISTRIBUTE BETWEEN THE LAP AND SHOULDER BELT AS THE DRIVER’S POSITION CHANGES DURING A MULTIPLE ROLLOVER EVENT. Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ENERGY-ABSORBING SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES WITH ONE THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE ENERGY-ABSORBING LOOP. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON AUGUST 8, 2003.

5 Complaints sent to the Center for Auto Safety for 1997 OLDSMOBILE Bravada

skip to NHTSA complaints

The vehicle is currently in for repair or replacement of the Lower Intake Manifold Gasket, which originally began to fail at approximately 74,000 miles and did not get bad enough until now. The cost to repair is in excess of $1,010. See following e-mail exchange on ball joint failure.From: Entrada International – Administration [[email protected]]Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2004 07:15To: [email protected]: SR#: 1-225746826 Oldsmobile Bravada Owner AssistanceImportance: HighDear Gwen,Thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me this morning. Unfortunately, the resolution detailed in your most recent message was not what I had hoped. There are a couple of things that came out of my conversation with your supervisor, Mrs. Smith, which I feel need to be addressed and recorded prior to taking this further. 1. On May 30, 2003 (vehicle mileage approx 99,642) the Ball Joints on the drivers side of my vehicle failed (while the vehicle was moving) resulting in the that front wheel being tilted inwards at the top. This is exactly the expected failure noted in this recall (Recall No. 01048) as described to me in a telephone conversation yesterday (10-Jun-2004) reference SR#: 1-225447299 by David Myatt at 866-932-4368 Ext. 39294. 2. Mrs. Smith advised me that since my vehicle did not fall into certain VIN break points and/or certain geographic areas that GM would not take any further action on my particular case. I told her that I understood her explanation but that the fact remained that my vehicle was of the same make, model, and year of manufacture and experienced the exact same failure as described in the recall. This, she said was merely a coincidence. Irrespective of where my VIN fall in any particular break point or geographic area, I believe this occurrence to be somewhat more than coincidental. She did make (and subsequently rescind) a verbal offer to reimburse 40% of the amount I paid to have the drivers side Ball Joints repaired. I explained to her that, after my conversation with you, reimbursement for the past work would not satisfy my concerns. I further explained to her that my understanding of the recall (No. 01048) was that both Ball Joints were to be replaced and that my concern was for the opposite side Ball Joints which have yet to be replaced. I suggested that, since the vehicle was currently at the dealer for repair that possible a better resolution would be for GM to replace the passenger side Ball Joints under the recall. I would not seek reimbursement for the drivers side work and therefore this would result in a 50/50 spilt of the costs vs. the 40/60 split she offered. She then advised me that her offer was not negotiable and that she was rescinding the offer and I said that I too was rescinding my offer to forgo reimbursement. 3. One comment that Mrs. Smith made, I feel must be formally addressed. She commented that \"My vehicle had 100,000 miles on it and that I should take responsibility for it\’s upkeep\". I was quite taken aback by this comment, as you might expect. To give you some history on this particular vehicle, I purchased it new in March of 1997 and have maintained the vehicle at regular intervals. 100% of all of the repair and maintenance work done to date, save oil and filter changes and tires, has been done at a one of the local Oldsmobile dealerships. To date I have spent close to $8,000.00 (more when you add in initial warranty work) repairing and maintaining this vehicle. This equates to $2.98 in repair and maintenance costs for each and every day I have owned the vehicle. I believe that I have taken responsibility for my vehicle\’s upkeep and am deeply offended by this comment. I currently own two other GM products and maintain them in the same manner, knowing full well what my responsibilities are as an owner. Now, it is my understanding that effective December 2001, GM has decided to conduct a customer satisfaction campaign to replace the upper ball joints on affected vehicles (Re: NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number : 01I018000). This special policy is for a period of 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the date the vehicle was originally placed in service, regardless of ownership. The upper ball joint replacement, due to separation, will be made at no charge to the customer during this period. What I am asking for now is that GM take responsibility for a known defect in this vehicle and replace the passenger side Ball Joints in accordance with the customer satisfaction campaign and to reimburse me for the charges I paid to replace the Ball Joints on the drivers side. Sincerely, Mark R. Poritzky cc: U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Office of Defects Investigation, NSA-10.01, 400 7th Street, SW, Washington, DC 20590. —–Original Message—– From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 11, 2004 10:50 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Oldsmobile Bravada Owner AssistanceDear Mr. Poritsky,Thank you for contacting the Oldsmobile Customer Assistance Center.
