Not Up To World Standards - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By Bill Willfield - November 4 - 4:34 pmDuring my first 30,000 miles with my 2001 Cadillac Seville SLS it has been in the shop way too many times. The instrument panel computer failed 3 times, both front seat heaters failed, the left rear door just would not open, the engine stopped (no steering - scared my wife who was driving) ad nauseum. I have owned six Cadillacs. This is absolutely the worst.

GREAT CAR - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By DON EASTBOURN - June 3 - 2:00 amIF YOU BUY A SEVILLE USED YOU ARE GETTING A LOT OF CAR FOR THE MONEY. IN PALM SRINGS CALIFORNIA, IT IS THE MOST POPULAR SEDAN ON THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL MECHANICAL PROBLEMS. HOWEVER THE CADILLAC SERVICE DEPARTMENTS ARE GREAT AND A THEY BEND OVER BACKWARDS TO MAKE YOU HAPPY. THEY GIVE GOOD LOANER CARS. I WILL PROBABLY BUY THE NEW SEVILLE IN A YEAR OR SO.

Enjoy the ride. - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By Edward Hothan - April 9 - 2:00 amExcellent handling vehicle. Especially appreciated on mountain type terrain. Holds the road very well at high speed and handles dips and curves without concern. Love the ride. Engine power is balanced well in just the right range. Would have liked one more gear, like an "overdrive" on this car. Have had this vehicle well over 100 mph on a couplke of occasions, piece of cake. Smooth as silk, great rideing vehicle.

Am I Satisfied ? ? - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By Gerrie Griffin - December 30 - 2:00 amI truly love the car. Very responsive. Cant believe it from a car of this weight and size. Very impressive from the start of the engine. However, I use a quart of oil every 2500 miles. I also have a 2000 DeVille that uses a quart every 1500 miles. Great engine, if you can keep oil in it.

SLS is a great car - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By Luxocruiser - December 6 - 2:00 amMy 01 is a really great car, but as the other reviews have stated, I have had my share of warranty work, transmission mounts, seat heaters, those awful Goodyear tires, (I traded mine in at 18K miles for Michelins.)I just passed 50K - glad I bought an extended warranty. Love the awsome Northstar power, love the ride, love the style. I believe the new rear-wheel drive debuting next year will be a world class vehicle.

Small Problems - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By F. H. Brown - November 10 - 2:00 amThis vehicle suffers from some small problems one is a noisy steering columnthe other is a problem with sensors it repeatedly tells me to check tire pressure when nothing is wrong. The third is a probem with the ashtray lid- it is not reliable it is hard to keep closed.These problems arent worth my time at the dealership, but detract from an otherwise excellent car.

Unexpected Problems after 20,000 miles - 2001 Cadillac Seville
By jkvccrc - September 23 - 2:00 amPerfect for first 20k miles. Then Crankcase sensors, front end problems, and now the battery post broke and fell off.As the battery is under the rear seat, who knew? and the acid filled the well under the seat.Mechanic said it is not unusual and the acid may eat thru the metal. Love the car, hate the reliability. Thank goodness for the warranty, but it has to go.
