we have to add oil frequently plus it is a mess where we park it. Cadillac should have to stand behind their products. They are ripping people off.

DeVille DHS 4.0L

  • Automatic transmission

My parents bought this 2001 Cadillac DHS vehicle, used in 2003 and have had issues with it ever since. Most recently was a $2500 dollar repair to fix a top end water leak, and lower end oil pan gasket leak. The engine needed to be removed! The repair was made and the vehicle was given to me. I hadn't had it a month before it over heated! This time the radiator cracked and allowed wated to go into the transmission. This time the repair is going to cost $1000 dollars! Does anyone have a P.O.C. at the Better Business Bureau?
