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.
Applied brakes and front end did not dip as it should have; no gripping as it should have; felt grinding and slippage as vehicle continued forward without losing any momentum. There was sufficient stopping distance that vehicle speed should have been reduced and stopped.
From about septmber 2003 on we've had issues w/ our 1999 Seville sls shutting down. It shuts down while in progress at 55+ miles per hour and at a standstill. Everything goes, the engine, lights, brakes, steering, etc. It is in the repair shop for the fourth time and they are still not sure they know what is causing the problem. The Cadillac customer service representative suggests that I let the repair center fix the car again and take it home to see if the problem occurs again. However, I am concerned from a public and personal saftey perspective that this is not advisable and there is a defect in the car. It's is dark here very early, traffic is heavy and the deer are on the move B/C hunting season just started. If I need lights, brakes or steering to avoid an accident or guide me home in the evening I am not confident that I can rely on this vehicle. Looking to Cadillac to see if a mutually beneficial result can be obtained.
