  Great Cadillac stop holds up to the best - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By Dave - March 11 - 2:57 am

  I bought this car 8 months ago not knowing much about the Cadillac family very much. I was obviously worried about that curse used Cadillacs seem to carry with them with a high rate of unreliability but iwas wrong. I kept good tabs on this baby and she has never failed me with a breakdown or faulty light not once. The only problem I had was the water pump froze and ended up getting a small crack but I still believe that was due to the consecutive 5 degree days (and sub zero) nights up in the northshore. I love the cockpit and have had no complaints of leg room. Very powerful when it needs and refined.

  This is a True Beast - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By hodrod guy - August 10 - 11:01 am

  I just got this puppy in May of this year...so far so good. Its funny how I ended up in this car being that I was looking at a 91 Corvette and a 2003 Mustang GT. Not to mention I was getting out of a 1999 Trans Am...needless to say Im into fast, agressive cars, but my main goal this time around was to get the most bang for my buck and the Cadillac SLS beat them out. Its really fast and solid as a rock. I love the way the back end of the car looks, but the front end is the only thing Id change. It is just a little farty. I tend to forget that when I get behind the wheel and hit high speeds in no time while feeling like Im sitting on the couch in my living room. I recommend this car for anyone who grew up as a gear head. Im 25 years old.

  Worst Purchase I have Ever Made - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By bas - December 29 - 6:41 pm

  I have had nothing but problems from the moment I drove my Cadillac Seville STS off the lot. My repair folder is over 3" thick - including continual vibration in steering at various speeds and reverbration in entire car and tie rods that were replaced numerous times. There is service bulletin out there - but dealers wont disclose this. I would NEVER recommend the Seville to anyone.

  Overall Comments After One Year of Ownership - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By susan - December 8 - 6:35 pm

  My 2002 Cadillac Seville STS was exceptional when acquired however, electronics and mechanicals became inoperable, needing complete replacemen. I had to make major mechanical repairs to the engine, steering shaft, stereo, too many to list. It is a good thing they have a long term warranty on their "quality" used vehicles. I am disappointed with the overall experience. The front pilars are wicked blind spots also.

  Not very welll built - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By Greg - August 30 - 6:23 pm

  I wouldnt buy another Cadillac. My 2002 Seville has been in the shop for 3 major fixes and now that it is no longer under warranty I worry all of the time about the next system failure. Each failure resulted in over a week at the shop and would have cost several thousand dolalrs if not for the warranty.

  By STS Lover - May 17 - 6:34 pm

  This car is simply awesome. We have had the car for 6 months now and no issues. Drives and Looks great! Love the power, and comfort. Mileage for this much power and size of car is amazing. Front wheel drive and Stabilitrak makes driving in snow a joy. Interiors and engines in these cars seem to last forever! At speed and I’ve had mine will over 100 MPH on several occasion these cars a stable and smooth. Would recommend one to anyone.

  First time four door... - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By Chris Klein - January 15 - 2:49 am

  My 2002 Seville is my fourth Cadillac. My preference in style has always been the Eldorado though. I had many problems with my 1995 Cadillac ETC, and was looking at a head gasket. With $6,000 in repairs in two years, I was done. My 2002 Certified Pre-Owned Seville SLS is a nice change of pace. It handles the crappy local streets and pot holes much better than my ETC did. For a heavier car, it drives like a much smaller car i.e. the 1997 Nissan Maxima SE that I used to own. It have been experiencing some light shaking in the steering in wheel at 65+ MPH. The dealer "replaced tie rod", but I still notice the shake. Its not bad, but I am not convinced this is "the way it sohuld ride." I paid nearly $22,000 for this car with less than 35,000 miles. It was in near new condition and certified. I miss having a sunroof.

  This is my second Cadillac - 2002 Cadillac Seville
  By Joe Stevens - November 3 - 2:00 am

  I traded in a 1997 SLS that I loved because it started to burn a quart of oil every 1,000 miles. I love the 2002 STS in every way except a couple. I have had extreme problems balancing the tires, and still have a slight vibration at certain speeds. I also wish, (minor issue) that the sun roof was a one touch close as well as the one touch open, and lastly, the satellite radio antenna on the roof should be painted, not a flat finish plastic. It detracts from the car. Other makes paint their antenna cover to match the car finish.
