2001 Cadillac Seville

Defect. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 110, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS." THESE VEHICLES HAVE AN INCORRECT TIRE PRESSURE LABEL. ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH P235/55R17 TIRES, THE TIRE PRESSURE LABEL INCORRECTLY SPECIFIES P235/60ZR16 TIRES.

Risk. INCORRECT TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE CAN DAMAGE TIRES, AFFECT VEHICLE HANDLING, AND INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. OWNERS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH CORRECT LABELS.

Sunroof flew off while driving. The adhesive bond between the glass and the metal frame debonded and the sunroof glass completely separated from the vehicle. Webasto Hollandia 700 series sunroof, Serial Number 0524386. A recall was already done for this defective product but Webasto will not fix this one because they claim this sunroof is a "different series" than what is covered by the recall, which is supposed to start with 06. I think this is just an excuse to get out of fixing the vehicle. The vehicle has no interior roof other than the small fabric slider that was there to protect the glass. The contact stated that Webasto finally agreed to send a replacement but the cost of the repair was not covered.

THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A LOSS OF HEARING IN THE LEFT EAR, 3 NECK FRACTURES, ABRASIONS ON THE ARMS AND LEGS THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A MEDICAL INCIDENT REPORT WAS FILED.

FUEL/IGN STARTING PROBLEMS ________________________________________ I HAVE A 2001 CADILLAC SEVILLE SLS THAT HAS BEEN HAVING INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEMS. PRESENTLY THE VEHICLE WILL NOT BUILD-UP FUEL PRESSURE IN ORDER TO START TO 41-47 PSI UNLESS I REMOVE THE REAR FUSE/RELAY BOX IGN 1 MICRO RELAY. WITH THIS RELAY REMOVED, I CAN HEAR THE FUEL PUMP BUILD-UP THE REQUIRED PSI AND THEN I CONFIRM THE BUILD-UP OF THAT PSI BY LOOKING AT MY TEST FUEL PSI GAUGE UNDER THE HOOD, THE CAR THEN STARTS NO PROBLEM, AND RUNS NO PROBLEM WITH RELAY NOT INSTALLED. WHENEVER I RE-INSTALL THIS MICRO RELAY THE FUEL SYS WILL NOT BUILD-UP THE REQUIRED PSI, IT JUST STAYS AT 0 PSI, AND OF COURSE IT WILL NOT START. I JUST REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP SENDING UNIT ASSY PLUS FUEL FILTER TODAY. THE OTHER DAY I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 25 SOUTHBOUND AND DOING 75 MPH AND THE ENGINE JUST DIED, QUIT RUNNING AND WOULD NOT RE-START. I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED HOME, THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO TROUBLESHOOT MY CADILLAC AND THE VEHICLE STARTED RIGHT UP WITH THE IGN 1 RELAY REMOVED. AS I MENTIONED EARLIER I ALREADY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP ASSY THINKING IT WOULD FIX PROBLEM AND IT DID NOT! TODAY WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY QUIT RUNNING AGAIN AND I HEARD A NOISE FROM THE FRONT END AND THE CAR SHOOK ALSO. I HAD TO FIND SOME SHOULDER ROOM, PULLED OVER, REMOVED IGN1 RELAY AGAIN AND THE CAR RE-STARTED NO PROBLEM AND I CONTINUED ON DRIVING TO WORK. *TR

I BOUGHT A CADILLAC SEVILLE FROM A USED CAR DEALER, IT VIBRATE WHEN I DRIVE IT. THE WHOLE CAR VIBRATES WHILE DRIVING IT ON A SMOOTH ROAD. THE CAR DEALER REPLACE THE TIRES, TIE-RODE, LOWER BALL JOINTS, AND STEERING ARM OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT AND DONE AN ALIGNMENT ON ALL THE WHEELS. IT STILL IS VIBRATING TO THIS DAY. THEY SAY THEY CAN 'T DUPLICATE THE VIBRATION, AND DON'T WANT TO RIDE WITH ME TO SHOW ME WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING NORMAL AND I CAN SHOW THEM WHAT I AM FEEL AS ABNORMAL. THEY EVEN TOOK IT TO AT THE CADILLAC DEALER AND THEY DONE SOME EXPENSIVE MACHINE BALANCING ON THE TIRES AND IT STILL DOES IT. ONE MECHANIC SAID THAT I WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL IT GETS WORSE TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS OR TO GET IT FIXED. THAT DOES NOT SOUND GOOD TO ME AT ALL. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY INJURES OR DEATH RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER I DON'T WANT TO THE FIRST. *NM

THE POWER STEERING BECOMES INOPERABLE AT LOW SPEEDS, CAUSING SIGNIFICANT RISKS IN PROPER MANEUVERING. THE SAFETY OF PEDESTRIANS IS OF PARTICULAR CONCERN, AS ONE INCIDENT RECENTLY DEMONSTRATED, WHEN I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL FAST ENOUGH.

THE CONSUMER'S VEHICLE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM KEEPS SHOWING A DEFECT WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON. THE CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER 4 TIMES, AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. ACCORDING TO OWNER'S MANUAL IT HAS TO DO WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. *AK...THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON, AND DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPAIR OR DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THIS CREATES A POTENTIAL HAZARD TO CONSUMER AND OTHERS IF THE LIGHT SIGNALS A PROBLEM. *AK *SB THIS PROBLEM HAVE BEEN GOING ON SINCE OCTOBER 17, 2004 TO THE PRESENT. *SB

WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN CONSUMER NOTICED A LOUD POPPING NOISE, AND THEN LOST TOTAL STEERING CONTROL. VEHICLE CONTINUED ON, AND HIT A CURB BEFORE STOPPING. DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE CAUSE OF THE STEERING LOCK UP WAS NOT DETERMINED.*AK

WE PURCHASED THE CAR FROM TUTWILLER CADILLAC IN INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA IN 2001. IT IS AT 46,000 MILES NOW AND IS THANKFULLY STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS RANGING FROM COMPUTER TO POWER STEERING. LAST WEEK MY SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND THE TCC SOLENOID. THEY ALSO SAID THE TURBINE SHAFT SEALS WERE LEAKING. THEY RECEIVED MY CAR ON OCT. 27TH AND RETURNED IT TO ME ON OCT. 29TH. NO SOONER THAN 20 MINUTES DOWN THE ROAD MY SERVICE LIGHT CAME BACK ON! I DROVE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS TIME THEY SAID IT WAS THE AIR INJECTION PUMP AND REPLACED IT. I RECEIVED IT BACK ON OCT. 30TH. YESTERDAY, NOV. 6TH I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THE ACCELERATOR STUCK AND SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS GRINDING IN THE FRONT. IT CAME UNSTUCK AFTER APPROX. 10 SECONDS OR SO. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. THIS TIME THE SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM CAME ON. (IT WAS ON LAST WEEK TOO, BUT THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND THAT THE LIGHT WENT OFF.) I ASKED THAT A WRECKER TAKE MY CAR THIS TIME, BECAUSE I WAS UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING IT. AS OF TODAY I HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM THEM. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THIS DEALERSHIP AND CADILLAC. I AM SURE TUTWILLER HAS COMPUTER RECORDS OF HOW MANY TIMES THEY HAVE SERVICED THIS CAR!

THE VEHICLE VIBRATED AT SPEEDS OF 55 MPH AND FASTER. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM ALTHOUGH, THEY REPLACED SEVERAL COMPONENTS, SUCH AS TIRES/ROTORS. *AK THE CAR HAS A BRACE FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER. THE VIBRATION IS STILL THERE AND THE CONSUMER WANTS CADILLAC TO FIX IT. *CB *JB

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK ON AN INCLINE IN THE CONSUMER'S DRIVEWAY, THE CONSUMER ATTEMPTED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE WHEN THE VEHICLE POPPED OUT OF PARK AND KNOCKED THE CONSUMER DOWN AND ROLLED OVER THE CONSUMER'S ANKLES. THE CONSUMER WAS NOT HOSPITALIZED, BUT DID SUFFER BRUISING AND SWELLING OF HIS ANKLES. *AK *SCC *JB

THE BODY SEAMS IN OUR 2001 CADILLAC SEVILLE ARE SEPARATING ALLOWING WATER TO COME IN THE VEHICLE AND COMPROMISING THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE VEHICLE , THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN WARRANTY (BARELY) SO THEY WILL FIX IT WHEN THEY GET AROUND TO IT THEN THEY WILL GIVE US A VEHICLE BACK THAT DOES NOT MEET THIER OWN REQUIREMENTS FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. THESE VEHICLES (THIS APPARENTLY IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM) ARE NOT SAFE AND SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE ROAD. *AK

THE AIR CONDITIONING ON THIS CAR IS INFERIOR TO ANY CAR THAT I HAVE OWNED BEFORE. IT IS NOT CAPABLE OF COOLING THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR WHEN THE EXTERIOR TEMPERATURE EXCEEDS 90 DEGREES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES WITH THIS COMPLAINT. THEY ALWAYS SAY THAT THEY CAN NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. *NLM
