1991 Oldsmobile Bravada Brakes Problems

“Granted my vehicle is old but the previous owner has kept it in excellent shape other than the painting peeling which I see is one of the problems ppl are having my main concern is my anti lock brake system which the light keeps going on and off and sometimes staying on.”

“Abs light comes on, performed system check, ECM malfunction, replaced b.p.m.v. With e.c.u, replaced brake fluid in entire system, adjust rear brakes. Fluid leaking from left rear axle, replace l/rear axle seal and brake shoes both side s left rear axle shaft faulty and contaminated brake shoes, replaced axle seal”

“Consumer experienced problem many times over and over. He has had the brake rotors and pads replaced, and the problem still exists. Whenever at a complete stop while brakes are down to the floor the vehicle will suddenly creep forward. Sometimes when pressing the brakes, the pedal is so stiff that vehicle exceeds stopping distance. Dealer does not know what or how to solve the problem.”

“Abs was replaced by heritage olds, in mt. Pleasant, mi under warrenty. Within 1 1/2 years the ABS system went out again. The olds dealership informed us that it would cost us $1,500.00 to have it fixed. I saw this site on the news and thought maybe you could help.”

“When the brakes were applied the pedal went to the floor , they did not perform. Owner had to coast to a stop. The dealer replaced the computer module . At 33000 miles the ABS computer had to be replaced, consumer has had the front pads, retracter, and back shoes replaced, problem still exists.”
