REGARDING OLDSMOBILE, BRAVADA 2000 SUV TRANSMISSION/ELECTRICAL FAILURE. IN NOVEMBER 2005 , AND AGAIN MAY 2007, THE 2000 BRAVADA WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND MADE LOUD SOUNDS. THE BRAVADA WOULD NOT GO NO MORE THEN 20 MPH AS I WAS ON A 65 MPH HIGHWAY. GOT OFF NEAREST EXT AND PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT TO EXAMINE. AS I TRIED TO BACK OUT OF THE PARKING LOT THE CAR WOULD NOT BACK UP, BUT WOULD ONLY GO FORWARD. IT SOUNDED LIKE THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTING GEARS WERE NOT ALIGNED ANYMORE. I TOOK THE CAR TO AAMCO, AND WAS TOLD I WAS CORRECT, AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REBUILT . ALSO, STATED THAT THE CAR BUILT WITH A PART TO GO UP TO ABOUT 125000 MILES, BUT IF THE CAR WENT OVER THAT THEN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER HASN'T MADE A PART TO CARRY THE CAR OVER THAT MILEAGE. THIS SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. EACH TIME I TOOK TO 4 DIFFERENT TRANSMISSION PLACES AND TOLD SAME THING REGARDING MANUFACTURER, AND WAY THEY BUILT IT. *AK
