Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 1995 Bravada.
The 1995 Oldsmobile Bravada is an SUV that represents an early chapter in the model's 1991-2004 production history. Accumulating only 15 total owner complaints and a single recall, the vehicle's most prominent issue area centers on its air bags. When viewed against the broader lineage, this model year sits near the very bottom of the Bravada's complaint scale—trailing only the 2004 low of 13 complaints and falling far short of the 243 logged against the 2002 peak—meaning it stands as a comparatively reliable entry in the nameplate's overall lifespan.

The 1995 Oldsmobile Bravada stands out as a clear low point in complaints within the generation, with only 15 total complaints—far fewer than the 103 in 1994 and the 84 in 1996, and the lowest count until 2004’s 13. It also has just one recall, compared to three in 1994 and five in 1996, and its 30 TSBs are modest relative to the steep climb that begins in 1996 (80 TSBs) and continues through the 2000s. The top complaint areas for 1995 are Air Bags, Power Train, and Service Brakes (three each), with two crash-related complaints and no fire complaints, but the data does not specify root causes for these issues. The overall trend shows complaints and recalls spiking in 1994, then dropping sharply in 1995 before rising again, suggesting 1995 may represent a brief period of improved reliability or lower reporting. Given its low complaint and recall counts compared to surrounding years, the 1995 Bravada is a relatively good year to buy within this generation, though the rising TSB trend afterward indicates that later years required more dealer interventions.
