The contact owns a 2003 Cadillac Cts. The contact stated that the PCV passage froze and caused oil to spill onto the exhaust. He called the local dealer and was informed that the pav passage was faulty. The dealer redesigned the PCV passage in the vehicle. Three months after the repair, the PCV passage began leaking again. The contact called the manufacturer about the leak, but has not received any feedback from the manufacturer or the dealer. He feels this is a safety issue because the burning oil leaves a toxic smell in the vehicle, and the leaking could cause the vehicle to shut off. The current mileage was 67,000 and failure mileage was 66,164.
