1991 OLDSMOBILE BRAVADA — Complaint #131450
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:LOW PRESSURE WARNING:SWITCH filed January 13, 1999
NHTSA complaint #131450 (ODI reference 529672) concerns a 1991 OLDSMOBILE BRAVADA and was filed on January 13, 1999. The owner reports the failure occurred on January 18, 1997. The report was geocoded to Georgia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as service brakes, air:supply:low pressure warning:switch, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same OLDSMOBILE BRAVADA cohort independently describe similar service brakes, air:supply:low pressure warning:switch failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 1991 OLDSMOBILE BRAVADA shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
