I have had numerous problems with my 1998 olds Bravada. First the blinker sound won't shut off. When the ac is on for more than 25 minutes the motor gets really loud and the speedometer needle starts jumping. Finally my brakes get sticky when it's hot outside then the ABS light comes on and it feels as if the brakes aren't going to engage and the speedometer needle starts going crazy again. This is something that shuts off and starts all over again every time I start the vehicle.

Approximately 10 times in the past 2 years the brakes have not operated or operated at a very minimal amount. It appears to be at low speed when first starting car out. I usually back out of the driveway. I stop with no problem. Then drive less than one block on a side street at approximately 25 mph. I put on the brakes and they barely engage. I push the pedal to the floor but it does nothing. I try to give myself as much assured distance as possible and have been very lucky I have not hit anyone yet. I have come "real " close and have had to swerve to miss cars.. no warning lights go off on the dashboard. I have taken my car into reliable in January 1999, October 20, 2000. Olds hot line requested that I take it to another dealer and I took it to earl Oldsmobile in brookpark, Ohio. Neither could dupicate the problem and refused to fix. When I called the Oldsmobile help line(1-800-442-6537 tracking # C02031344) they repeated the same statement and refused to give me anyone elses phone# at Oldsmobile or General Motors. Everyone seems to have absolutely no regard for safety or human life. When I asked jim ober of reliable Oldsmobile " what if I kill a small child who steps in front of me and I can not stop." His response was a flippant " people die in automobile accidents all the time." I am not that concerned for the safety of myself, my car, or someone elses car. This problem currently happens at very low speeds and I probably would not have a serious accident with 2 cars hitting each other.. my #1 fear is if a pedestrian steps in front of me. Please help I have tried everything I can think of. It does not appear like anyone at oldsbmobile cares.

Due to defective electrical problems windows went up and down/ headlights malfunctioned, and braking system malfunctioned, causing a crash. Also, while driving battery cable fell apart which caused the vehicle to stall unexpectedly which may have caused a crash.
