What owners wrote
I just had the transfer case and differential on my 1997 olds bravada repaired and was driving when I heard a pop sound and saw flames shooting out from the bottom center and rear of my vehicle. I stopped immediately and got everyone out just before the whole thing went up in flames. *nlm
