This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2001 Cadillac Deville. While driving approximately 70 mph, the rear passenger side of the vehicle was leaking battery acid. As a result, the rear axle detached. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 177,000.
I put my car in drive and it felt and sounded like the entire front end fell out, my electric shows everything works, have also had weird thing come up that I can not turn security off, it started over heating I have fixed everything but will still get extremely hot for no reason.
I purchased my car from lockhart Cadillac in indianapolis, in. About one week later I began to have a grinding sound each time I turned the steering wheel left or right. I have taken in for repair several times. In September 2001, in addition to the grinding sound when turning the wheel, my car now slows down when I turn. Also it has now begun to make the same sound when I back up. Both lockhart Cadillac in indianapolis and val ward in ft. Myers, Florida have told me that Cadillac is working on it. They have been telling me this since February 2001. The noise is becoming louder.
