  • An Absolute WASTE Of Money! - 2000 Cadillac Catera
    By -

    I havent even had this car for a month and its already been in the shop three different times! Problems with the engine, mass air flow sensor, gaskets, and electrical problems. The first week I had it, ran great. Now the radio and heated seats quit working. And to top it all off, the sunroof automatically opens at random times and will not close! I thought cadillacs were nice reliable luxery vehicles???? Dont let the looks fool you!

  • Run Farrrr Away From Catera - 2000 Cadillac Catera
    By -

    the car runs perfectly when ur not spending thousands of dollars on it. worst cadillac ever built.check engine light always on.most users complain about cosmetic faults like door knob and all but let me tell you all the issues you will have with this cadi. catalytic converters,mass air flow sensor,o2 sensors,camshaft postion sensor,secondary air solenoid,crank sensor,air injection pump,modulator. once you fix all of those,a few thousand dollars after,you are good to go for a month or so till they all go bad again. trust me on this,the car is beautiful,lovely interior and sound system but there is something bout the engineering that just makes all those things go bad

    well when we first looked at this car we thought...wow. We found a car that looks and drives like a dream for the right price...we were right but soon after we drove it hope the electric in this car went wacky, the headlight went out..$25. Then the brake lights stop working as well as the sunroof, cruise control and other small things

  • To my surprise - 2000 Cadillac Catera
    By -

    Im surprised by this car, Ive not had a lot of problems with my sedan. I bought this used a few years back with 48,000 mi on it after I couldnt afford to get my older 7 series BMW fixed. I sometimes forgot I wasnt in my BMW when driving down the interstate because the Catera gripped the road like a small series BMW. If you stood outside this car youd think a tall man like myself that stands 64 could never fit comfortably and then you get in, its like wow? Ive found that a lot of GM mechanics have a hard time working on my car because its German made so Ive been taking it to my BMW mechanic who feels right at home. Ive serviced this car on a reg basis and soon approaching 100,000!

    It is fast. The motor has a powerful noise to it. It never broke down on me. Its a small car and it has a sporty look.

  • Glad to be Rid of It - 2000 Cadillac Catera
    By -

    My Cadillac Catera has been nothing but trouble. I have had to make many trips to the dealer for minor repairs. The last problem was that the battery would die every time it rained. I had to meke three trips to the dealer for this problem and they could find nothing wrong. I traded it in and am glad to be rid of it.

  • 1st Caddy Daddy - 2000 Cadillac Catera
    By -

    This is my first Cadillac. Ive always been a Lincoln Town Car man because of the size and comfort. I bought this Caddy used for $6,999. It was in immaculate shape. After test driving it, I fell in love. It has a smooth ride,very comfortable feel and is a joy to drive. I may complain about the appearance some but not much. The fantastic interior far outways the exteriors short cummings. The loud Bose sound system and fun to play with moonroof are great. The leather memory seats are definitely of the Cadillac quality. The engine could use a few more horses but I cant complain. It still has great power. If youre in the market for a Caddy, you cant go wrong with a 2000 or later Catera. Ive had no problems with this car through 65,000 miles and counting!

  • car right for you? - 2000 Cadillac Catera

    Nice car but not for the person who likes power.

  • CUTE AND SMALL, BUT VERY STYLISH - 2000 Cadillac Catera
    By -

    I FOUND INSTANTLY AFTER DRIVINF THIS VEHICLE THAT YOU CANNOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER. IT SURPRISED ME HOW ROOMY THE INTERIOR WAS. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SLOW, BUT IT HAD AN EXCELLENT TAKE OFF SPEED. IT RODE AS IF I WAS RIDING ON A CLOUD.
