STAY CLEAR!Cheap price!
A word of advice. Stay clear of this car. Yes the used car price might
be tempting BUT there is a reason why it is so cheap.
I will not list the numeours problems I have with this car, but will
only mention the main ones:
1- Battery dies if car left not run for a week or so!
2- Wierd vibration when shifting into 4th gear!
3-Transmission lags. When shifing from N to D it takes longer than
usual for the tranny to engage!
4-BAD fuel ecenomy AND LOW performance (272HP????)
and NO my car is not old. It is 2007 with 18 k miles on it.
It is a nice piece of machinary to cherish and KEEP in your garage but
if you plan on driving it and using it regulalry, this may not be your
best choice!
I was shocked that my problems with this car are actually SHARED by
other owners of the same car. The intimate relshionship you will have
with the dealer and the frequent visits you will make are probably
Cadiallac's way of saying WE LOVE YOU and we hate NOT to see you every
couple of months.
