Review

I currently own 3 all purchased on ebay, 2002, 2006, 2008. Only one has the need for a qt of oil every 1000 miles. Two of the three the drivers power window went,the power antenna went and the air conditioner compressor on one went at 160,000 miles. I use regular gas and get the fuel injectors cleaned for twenty dollars at Wal-mart. Get 17 to 28 mpg.avg 20. Two of the three have Michelin tires and get a great quite ride. Cheap tires effect the ride. Had one since 2002 drove 70,000 miles without ANY repairs other than window,brakes and now the AC. You can get a great car, great ride for under 5000 in 2008 dollars. My son is 22 and he likes it better than his brothers Audi. will go 200,000+mi

Favorite Features

The comfort of the power leather seats. Luxury ride with decent MPG,huge trunk. you can fit three adults comfortably in back seat. Great for long trips Audio controls on steering wheel.getting better gas mileage than the guy driving his Nissan Murano and Maxima

Suggested Improvements

Outside trim is very cheap and poorly affixed. better cup holders,smaller engine oil capacity, visible coolant bottle, flow through air capability without using ac or heater.

Review

Bought this car in May of 2007 with 53,000 miles on it, and it has been trouble ever since. First power window motors went out. Second crank seal caused oil leak (At 62,000 miles). During repairs mechanic forgot to put a latch on the right front passenger wheel causing me to lose a wheel (Thankfully) in a garage. Dealership would not refund me the money of the repairs even though they were dangerously done. Now the car is in the shop due to two blown head gaskets. Cadillac Customer Service department is not willing to help out with anything.

Favorite Features

There are none

Suggested Improvements

Redo this car and Customer Service department needs to own up to the quality of the vehicle

Review

Bought this car 05/2007, and it has been nothing but trouble since. First the Power Window motors went out. Than an Oil Leak that needed repair (I think it was the crank seals at 60,000 miles), repairs dangerously repaired (Dealership forgot the put the latch back for the passenger side front wheel. Currently the car is being repaired for two blown head gaskets (At 64000 miles). I tried Cadillac Customer Service, and the only thing they are saying: we can not help because it is out of warranty. This is true, but it has only 64,000 miles on it and it should not have these type of problems

Favorite Features

None what so ever

Suggested Improvements

Redesign the whole car.

Review

No doubt this Deville is gorgeous, fast and comfortable, but it would have been better if it was RWD. It is absolutely horrible for winter driving. It turns sideways when brakes are applied on snow cover roads. I can't figure out why it guzzles so much oil. The eternal "service engine soon" light is annoying. There is constantly some part that needs to be replace to make the engine light go out for a few weeks, then its right back on again. I'm sorry to say it, but I have a love/ hate relationship with this car.

Favorite Features

Tailights baby! Very fast, good gas mileage.

Suggested Improvements

Make em RWD, fix oil usage issue, and lose the "service engine soon" light!
