CONSUMER COMPLAINING ABOUT THE DESIGN OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BEING CLOSE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL. MR THE CONSUMER STATES THAT IT CAUSES ADDITIONAL SECONDS TO GET HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATES THAT THE SAME MANEUVER HAPPENS WHEN HIS RIGHT FOOT HITS THE END OF THE SIDE VERTICAL PANEL. SCC WHEN LOOKING IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR, CONSUMER CAN ONLY SEE ONE QUARTER OF THE BOTTOM HORIZONTAL VIEW.

THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW IN FRONT SEAT BELT SHOULDER STRAP MOUNT, IT IS AT THE SHOULDER OF THE SEAT. FOR A PERSON 5 FEET AND SHORTER STRAP WOULD GO ACROSS THE MIDDLE OF NECK, WHICH COULD CAUSE MAJOR INJURIES IN AN ACCIDENT.*AK CONSUMER IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF HIS WIFE WHEN SHE OPERATES THIS VEHICLE.

TURN SIGNALS DO NOT TURN OFF AFTER MAKING A TURN, CONSUMER HAS TO EITHER TURN THEM OFF MANUALLY OR TURN THE WHEEL 90 DEGREES. DEALER STATED THAT'S THE WAY TURN SIGNALS ARE DESIGNED.*JB CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO NORWOOD CADILLAC WHERE ITS SERVICE WRITER INFORMED CONSUMER THAT THE TURN SIGNALS WERE DESIGNED THAT WAY AND THAT ALL VEHICLES OF THIS MODEL OPERATED IN THE SAME MANNER. NOTHING WAS DONE BECAUSE OF THE DESIGN. THE HOOD BOUNCES AND FLUTTERS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ONLY. THE HOOD BUMPERS AND PANEL WERE NOT ADJUSTED. THEY WERE ALIGNED AND ADJUSTED. ALSO, WHEN THE WIPERS ARE IN DELAY MODE, THE OPERATION IS ERRATIC. CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THAT THE WINDSHIED AND WIPERS ARE WATER SENSITIVE. THE WIPERS WILL SPEED UP IF THE WINDSHIELD IS VERY WET. *JG

THE (TPM) SYSTEM INDICATES 4 POUNDS DIFFERENT FROM GAUGE READING. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THE DISCREPANCY. THIS COULD BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO IMPROPER PRESSURE BEING MAINTAINED IN THE TIRES.

LOUD INTERMITENT GRINDING NOISE HEAR WHEN STEERING TURNED WHEN BACKING OUTAND TURNING WHEEL CAR DRIVEN LESS THAN 100 MILES. AS CAR MILAGE INCREASES NOISE IS BECOMING MORE CONSTENT. WINDSHIELD THE RUBBER GASKETS ON BOTH SIDES IS INSTALLED ON TOP OF THE GLASS INSTEAD OF IN THE GROVES PROVIDED.THIS ALLOWS ROAD SALT AND OTHER DEBRIS TO ACCOMULATE AT BOTTOM CORNERS OF WINDSHIELD. THIS CAUSES A MESSEY APPEARANCE AND WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE CORROSION. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT THE WINDSHIELD MAY POP OUT DEGRADING THE BODY INTEGRITY. POOR ALIGNMENT. ALL POINTS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE REAR CAMBER COULD BE ADJUSTED TO SPECIFICATIONS EXCEPT THE REAR CAMBER.*AK
