1994 Oldsmobile Bravada Owners Manual

If you are skulled enough to do some work on your vehicle, you will probably want to get the service information GM publishes. You will find a list of publications and how to get them in this manual. See Service Publications in the Index. “Section B: Owner Checks and Services” tells you what should be checked whenever you stop for fuel. It also explains what you can easily do to help keep your vehicle in good condition.

“Section C: Periodic Maintenance Inspections” explains important inspections that your Oldsmobile dealer’s service department or another qualified service center should perform. “Section D: Recommended Fluids & Lubricants” lists some products GM recommends to help keep your vehicle properly maintained. These products, or their equivalents, should be used whether you do the work yourself or have it done. “Section E: Maintenance Record” provides a place for you to record the maintenance performed on your vehicle. Whenever any maintenance is performed, be sure to write it down in this section. This will help you determine when your next maintenance should be done. In addition, it is a good idea to keep your maintenance receipts. They may be needed to qualify your vehicle for warranty repairs.

Section A: Scheduled Maintenance Services Using Your Maintenance Schedules This section tells you the maintenance services you should have done and when you should schedule them. Your Oldsmobile dealer knows your vehicle best and wants you to be happy with it. If you go to your dealer for your service needs, you’ll know that GM-trained and supported service people will perform the work using genuine GM parts. These schedules are for vehicles that: carry passengers and cargo within recommended limits. You will find these limits on your vehicle’s Certificatioflire label. See the Index under Loading Your Vehicle. are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits. use the recommended unleaded fuel. See the Index under Fuel.

Selecting the Right Schedule First you’ll need to decide which of the two schedules is right for your vehicle. Here’s how to decide which schedule to follow: Schedule I Is any one of these true for your vehicle?

Most trips are less than 4 miles (6 km) . Most trips are less than 10 miles (16 km) when outside temperatures are below freezing. The engine is at low speed most of the time (as in door-to-door delivery, or in stop-and-go traffic). You operate your vehicle in dusty areas or off-road frequently. You tow a trailer.

If any one (or more) of these is true for your driving, follow Schedule I. Schedule I1 Follow Schedule I1 only if none 01 me above conditions is true.

I GMParticipation in BBB AUTO LmE- Alternative Resolution Program* Both Oldsmobile and your Oldsmobile dealer are committed to maling sure you are completely satisfied with your new vehicle. If a situation arises where you feel your concern has not been adequately addressed, our experience has shown that the Customer Satisfaction Procedure described earlier

in this section is very successful at resolving problems. There may be instances where an impartial third-party can assist in arriving at a solution to a disagreement regarding vehicle repairs or interpretation of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. To assist in resolving these disagreements Oldsmobile voluntarily participates in BBB AUTO LINE. BBB AUTO LINE is an out-of-court program administered by the Better Business Bureau system to settle disputes between customers and automobile manufacturers. This program is available free of charge to customers who currently own or lease a GM vehicle. If you are not satisfied after following the Customer Satisfaction Procedure, you may contact the BBB using the toll- free telephone number, or write them at the following address: BBB AUTO LINE Council of Better Business Bureaus 4200 Wilson Boulevard Suite 800 Arlington, VA 22203 Telephone: 1-800-955-5100

Eligibility is limited by vehicle age and mileage, and other factors. We prefer you utilize the Customer Satisfaction Procedure before you resort to AUTO LINE, but you may contact the BBB at any time. The BBB will attempt to resolve the complaint serving as an intermediary between you and Oldsmobile. If this mediation is unsuccessful, an informal hearing will be scheduled where eligible customers may present their case to an impartial third-party arbitrator. The arbitrator will male a decision which you may accept or reject. If you accept the decision, GM will be bound by that decision. The entire dispute resolution procedure should ordinarily take about forty days from the time you file a claim until a decision is made.

Subscriptions You can subscribe to all Oldsmobile Product Service Publications (PSP’s) . This will include bulletins for all vehicles sold by Oldsmobile and will not be limited to PSP’s applicable to any particular model. For subscription costs and ordering information call the toll-free number shown in the following text. What You’ll Find in the Index A list of all PSP’s published by Oldsmobile in a model year (1990 or later). PSP’s covering all models of Oldsmobile vehicles are listed in the same index. Price information for the PSP’s you may want to buy.

How You Can Get an Index Indexes are published periodically. Most of the PSP’s which could potentially apply to the most recent Oldsmobile models will be listed in the most recent publication for that model year. This means you may want to wait until the end of the model year before ordering an index, if you are interested in buying PSP’s pertaining to a current model year car or truck. Some PSP’s pertaining to a particular model year vehicle may be published in later years, and these would be listed in the later year’s index. When you order an index for a model year that is not over yet, we’ll send you the most recently published issue.

Bulletins cover various subjects. Some pertain to the proper use and care of your vehicle. Some describe costly repairs. Others describe inexpensive repairs which, if done on time with the latest parts, may avoid future costly repairs. Some bulletins tell a technician how to repair a new or unexpected condition. Others describe a quicker way to fix your vehicle. They can help a technician service your vehicle better. Most bulletins apply to conditions affecting a small number of cars or trucks. Your Oldsmobile dealer or a qualified technician may have to determine if a specific bulletin applies to your vehicle. You can subscribe to all Oldsmobile bulletins. This way you’ll get them as they come out. You can wait a while and get an index to the bulletins. You can also get individual bulletins. However, you’ll need the index to identlfy them.
