  Deram to Nightmare - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By gtm7667 - November 14 - 2:00 am

  Bought in 2000 as pre owned certified.bought extened warrenty, and glad I did.Fuel sensors several times, electrical,steering rack,trunk leak 6 times. The list goes on and on. And lets talk about oil consumption that is unreal.And Cadillac sent a bulliton to the dealers to let them know it was acceptable, due to engine design. And now right after the warranty expires,a major oil seal leak. i called Cadillac directly and after several attempts was told thank you for buying Cadillac, but there is nothing we can do for you. All I know is my dream car became my nightmare and as much as I said I would not buy a Japaneese car, the next time I will.

  caddy is over rated - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By caddycadcad - September 28 - 2:00 am

  I just bought this off some guy at what i thought was a great bargain until I drove it home. The computer does not stop with error messages: "service ride control", a/c refridgerent too low (even though I just filled it), my odometer stopped moving, my ac doesnt work anymore, my radiator leaks and I have only owned it three days!!! Above all, it wont go into fourth gear. On the highway, for example, it stays in third. Worst purchase ever. Should have kept my Town Car.

  GM pulled the wool over our eyes... - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By wordofmouththeonlywa - August 22 - 2:00 am

  GM sold us a bill of goods here. As soon as the warranty was up (only 4 years) this p.o.s. started falling apart. The name CADILLAC used to mean quality that you could trust. I have seen nothing but problems with this car. From headlights literally falling off to fuel sensors or pumps or something shorting out IN the gas tank causing the electrical system to go haywire??? You tell me why I should pay over $40g for this again??? Very disappointed and of course GM says, "Thank you for purchasing a Cadillac and we appreciate your informing us of how to improve our products." Basically "screw you sucker. We got ours."

  Get the extented warranty used carI - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By Stylist Jo - July 23 - 2:00 am

  I love my car. I owned a Cadillac before this one and it saved my life. Will never own a compact car. Too many SUVs and I travel long distances. This car is a dream for travel and other passengers are comfortable in the back seat. Great features and it is a fun car to drive.Looks great and has great curb appeal. I agree with other reviewer...buy used, crazy to buy new. I did have to replace the transmission in 2000 and other minor things that were covered in my extended warranty. Worth the extra money and has paid for itself.

  Very poor quality engine for the cost - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By Larry - March 29 - 2:00 am

  My car now has 67,000 miles and i now have the third raditor, second alternator, and the engine has been pulled twice for blown head gasket. I am a Bank official, and love the car but the northstar engine is not worth the money. The interior and the exterior are great and its a comfortable car to drive, but the engine gets a rating of 0. Dealership tells me its the aluminum block engine that is not strong enough to hold the head bolts without stripping out.

  The Revs Caddy - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By Jack White - January 28 - 2:00 am

  Overall My Cadillac has been a very good car the only thing Ive had to purchase was struts(120,000)miles. The cars are very fast.Ive had my (CONCOURS) up to 138 mph and was still pulling before I took my foot out of it. (The car runs like a scalded dawg)

  love it - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By myalias - November 16 - 2:00 am

  At 119 000 miles,the only replacements have been strut mounts,and front rotors and pads.Great car,if more people drove it that were my age/they probably would buy(early 30s).Concours is a great car/and more headroom than an sts(lets you get a moonroof!)(6"2)

  Another leaking cadillac - 1997 Cadillac Deville
  By YankeeLady - November 8 - 2:00 am

  Have owned 3 Cadillacs all had fluid leaks. 92 needed new transmission and water pump before 40,000 miles. 97 needed water pump at 45k miles and had 3 batteries. Then it started to stall but dealer couldnt find anything wrong. A/C came out of defrost vents at times. With cost of car, it should not be a problem. With supposed quality, a much longer warranty should be given.
