Fire

MY SON ALMOST DIED ON OCTOBER 25, 2013 IN HIS 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE IN OUR DRIVEWAY WHILE HE WAS RELAXING IN IT WITH HIS DOG. HE HAD FALLEN ASLEEP WAITING FOR HIS MOTHER/MY WIFE AND THE ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE. HE NEEDED TO CLIMB OUT OF WINDOW AND PULL HIS DOG THROUGH THE WINDOW. HE INJURED HIMSELF AND WENT TO HOSPITAL. THE FIRE WAS SO INTENSE THAT THE ENGINE FELL APART FROM HEAT, THE CABIN WAS DESTROYED, FRONT TIRES ARE GONE/MELTED WHILE TRUNK AND GAS TANK WERE RELATIVELY FINE. THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS RESPONDED TO THIS DISASTER IN OUR DRIVEWAY. MY SON ALSO LOST VARIOUS PERSONAL POSSESSIONS AND HIS TRANSPORTATION TO WORK. IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL MONTHS SINCE MY SON'S NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE AND THE ONLY THING GM SAYS IS THAT THE FIRE DAMAGED THE CAR AND THERE IS NOTHING IT CAN DO. IT ALSO HAS INFORMED ME THAT IF I WISH TO TAKE ANY OTHER ACTION, I MUST RETAIN THE VEHICLE, WHICH IS A BURNED-OUT SHELL OF A VEHICLE IN OUR FRONT DRIVEWAY. IT IS A REMINDER EVERY DAY THAT MY SON ALMOST DIED IN WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A HIGH QUALITY CAR AND GM DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ITS CUSTOMERS. I WAS HOPING THAT GM WOULD RESOLVE THIS MATTER IN A REASONABLE MANNER SO MY SON COULD MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS LIFE. HE LOST SEVERAL PERSONAL AFFECTS, HIS PRESCRIPTION EYE GLASSES, SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND MONEY HE HAD WITHDRAWN TO GIVE TO MY WIFE FOR A SCHOOL BILL. I ALSO HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO USE OUR BONNEVILLE FOR 5 MONTHS BECAUSE THE CADILLAC IS BLOCKING ACCESS TO IT. IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO THAT WILL RESOLVE THIS MATTER IN A FAIR MANNER? WE NEED IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE FROM GM. THANK YOU. *TR

WHEN I DRIVE AT ANY SPEED RANDOMLY THE GAS GAUGE GOES TO EMPTY,WINDOWS DON'T WORK, AC GOES OFF BUT FAN STILL BLOWS, POWER LOCKS DON'T WORK, LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN I STOP AND GET OUT, BUT WHEN I PUT THE KEY BACK IN AND TURN IT TO THE "ON" POSITION AND BACK OFF EVERYTHING WORKS AGAIN MY BATTERY WENT DEAD A FEW TIMES DUE TO THE LIGHTS STAYING ON AND MY GIRLFRIEND NOT KNOWING WHAT'S GOING ON...WHAT IS THAT!!!!! *JB

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. *TR

Crash

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE STS. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 25 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT ABNORMALLY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE GASKET REPLACED AROUND THE COOLING SYSTEM YET THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER REGARDING THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT AND THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT STATED THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENT THAT CONTROLLED THE STEERING AND BRAKES SUDDENLY FAILED. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE WHICH SEEMED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ECM (ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE) NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HE CALLED THE MANUFACTURER BUT WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST HIM WITH THE REPAIR COSTS. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 50,142.

THIS MAY BE NOTHING YOU CAN HELP WITH, HOWEVER THE NORTHSTAR ENGINES MADE BY GM HAVE HAD A DEFECT FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. THERE ARE NO RECORDS THAT YOU HAVE CHECKED INTO THE PROBLEMS WITH THIS. IT REGARDS THE HEAD GASKETS BREAKING AT AN ALARMING AND CONSISTENT RATE FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS! ASK ANY MECHANIC ABOUT THIS. AROUND 100,000 MILES ON THE ENGINE THE HEAD GASKETS BREAK, AND COOLANT LEAKS INTO THE ENGINE. NO ONE WILL REPLACE THE GASKETS. ALL YOU CAN DO IS SPEND A SMALL FORTUNE ($5,000 TO $9,000) ON A NEW ENGINE. A WASTE OF MONEY SINCE THE NEXT NORTHSTAR ENGINE WILL PROBABLY DO THE SAME THING. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT AND CONTINUES TO IGNORE. NO WONDER THEY ARE GOING OUT OF BUSINESS. AFTER 100 YEARS THEY STILL CANNOT PRODUCE A RELIABLE ENGINE! IF YOU EXPECT AMERICANS TO CONTINUE BUYING AMERICAN CARS, ESPECIALLY CADILLACS, PLEASE DO SOME RESEARCH ON THIS. YOU CAN FIND LETTERS WRITTEN BY SEVILLE OWNERS ON THE WEB ABOUT THIS. I AM MOST CERTAINLY NOT THE ONLY ONE, JUST ONE OF MANY, MANY LEMON OWNERS. HOPING YOU CARE ENOUGH TO HAVE LISTENED AND CHECK THIS OUT, SINCERELY *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE. THE CONTACT SMELLS GASOLINE WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. HE DISCOVERED THAT A FUEL RAIL WAS LEAKING ON THE NUMBER ONE CYLINDER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WERE NO OPEN RECALLS. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 62,640 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,540. UPDATED 07/29/08 *BF THE FUEL RAIL CRACKED JUST ABOVE THE CYLINDER #1. THE CONSUMER STATED A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED ON PRIOR YEARS. UPDATED 07/29/08. *JB

1999 CADILLAC STS SEVILLE SEAT BELT BUCKLING DIFFICULTY**CC THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO A DESIGN GLITCH AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE ACCELERATOR WOULD STICK AT TIMES AND THE POWER SEATS JAMMED. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AT NIGHT, THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DETERMINED THE LENSES TURNED YELLOW AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

CAR STALLED (DIED) WHILE EXITING HWY ON EXIT RAMP; LOST PWR STEERING, BRAKES, AND WAS LUCKY TO COME TO A STOP WITHOUT INJURY. THIS HAPPENS EVERY FEW MONTHS AND DEALERS CANNOT REPEAT OR FIND THE PROBLEM. *NM

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, MOSTLY WHEN SLOWING DOWN QUICKLY, VEHICLE STALLS & DIES. WHEN THIS OCCURS VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER. HAPPENS EVERY FEW WEEKS; STARTS RIGHT UP AGAIN AFTER COMING TO STOP, BUT IT'S DIFFICULT TO STOP BECAUSE NO POWER BRAKES, STEERING, ETC. VERY DANGEROUS. I WANT THIS TO BE A RECORD OF THE PROBLEM IN CASE I AM KILLED IN ACCIDENT FOLLOWING AN OCCURANCE OF THIS TYPE.

DT: CONTACT STATES WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE THE BRAKE PEDAL DISASSEMBLED FROM THE BRAKE BOOSTER, CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKES. THE SERVICE DEALER STATED EVERYTHING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WITHIN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. THERE WAS NO SAFETY CLIP BETWEEN THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER.*AK

DRIVER NOTICED THAT THE SRS LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD AND REMAINED ON. THE CAUSE HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED AT THIS TIME. THE DRIVER WILL CONTACT THE DEALER IN THE NEAR FUTURE. *AK

PROBLEM INVOLVES FAULTY STEERING RACK, IT HAS RUPTURED SEAL. WHICH PROHIBITS POWER STEERING ASSIST, WHILE MAKING LEFT HAND TURNS. *BF THE LACK OF POWER STEERING RESTRICTS THE CONSUMERS ABILITY TO TURN TO THE LEFT. *TC *JB

I SERVICED MY 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE IN NOVEMBER 2004. IT ONLY HAS 31,000 MILES AND IS DRIVEN ON FREEWAY ONLY. THE CAR STALLED FOR NO REASON WHEN I LAST DROVE IT AND NOW WILL NOT START. BATTERY IS FINE, POWER KICKS ON BUT ENGINE WILL NOT RESPOND. THIS IS FRIGHTENING AS IT DIES WHILE I WAS IN AN INTERSECTION DURING A U-TURN. WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED AND I WILL BE TAKING IT TO THE DEALER 1/10 (AT MY COST). I THINK THEY SHOULD STEP UP TO THE PLATE. IT WAS NOT SURPRISING TO SEE 7 OTHER COMPLAINTS AGAINST THE SAME YEAR'S MODEL.*AK

FAX FM MIKE PETERSEN (OR) RE HIS WIFE'S 1999 GM CADILLAC SEVILLE STS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED WHEN STARTING THE CAR.*MR THE DRIVER SUSTAINED ONLY MINOR INJURIES SUCH AS SORENESS FORM THE FORCE OF THE AIR BAG AND TEMPORARY HEARING LOSS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT THEY REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. *NM

ON JUNE 17, AT OR ABOUT 7:30 PM, MY WIFE ENTERED HER VEHICLE, A 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE STS, SHE TURNED THE KEY TO START THE CAR, AND THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON DRY PAVEMENT, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN GEAR, AND HAD SUSTAINED NO PREVIOUS DAMAGE. WE CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, AND SUBSEQUENTLY, THE MANUFACTURER, TO NO AVAIL. TO DATE, THEY HAVE REFUSED TO ASSIST US WITH THIS PROBLEM. UPON CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP, ON FRIDAY, JUNE 18, FIVE DIFFERENT MECHANICS TOLD US THAT THIS TYPE OF DEPLOYMENT IS "NOT SUPPOSED TO OCCUR." THAT, IN FACT, THE AIRBAG SHOULD NOT DEPLOY IF THE CAR IS NOT IN GEAR. FURTHER, UPON CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER, I WAS TOLD AGAIN THAT THIS SITUATION SHOULD NOT OCCUR. THE MANUFACTURER TOLD ME THAT THE ONLY CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY INADVERTENTLY IS IF MOISTURE OR CORROSION BUILDS UP. UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, A WARNING LIGHT WILL DISPLAY TO SIGNAL THE DRIVER THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT THERE WAS A MOISTURE OR CORROSION BUILDUP IN THE SYSTEM. SINCE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH IT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO, AND SINCE THERE WAS NO INDICATION BY VIRTUE OF A DISPLAYED WARNING LIGHT, THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OR MANUFACTURE OF THIS SYSTEM, ON THIS PARTICULAR MODEL VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY, MY WIFE WAS NOT DRIVING THE CAR WHEN THE DEPLOYMENT OCCURRED. HOWEVER, WITH THOUSANDS OF 1999 CADILLAC SEVILLE'S ON THE ROAD, IT MAY SIMPLY BE A MATTER OF TIME WHEN AN INADVERTENT DEPLOYMENT OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. OBVIOUSLY, DEPLOYMENT UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, RATHER THAN SAVE LIVES, MAY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF LIFE; AND CONSIDERING THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS UNWILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR ASSIST TO REPAIR SUCH DEFECT, GOVERNMENT OR REGULATORY INTERVENTION IS IMPERATIVE TO AVOID THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF LIFE. *NM

GETTING VIBRATION ON SMOOTH ROADS AT 60-68 MPH. PUT ON 4 NEW MICHELIN TIRES, REPLACED BRAKE ROTORS, BALANCED ALL TIRES, STILL EXPERIENCE VIBRATION. DEALER CAN'T FIX. WHAT ARE OTHER SOLUTIONS BESIDES SAYING TIRES ARE OUT OF ROUND? *AK

WHEN THE CONSUMER STARTED THE VEHICLE THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG INADVERTENTLY DEPLOYED. THE CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO FOLD UP AND PUSH THE AIR BAG BACK INTO THE STEERING WHEEL, DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION, AND THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONSUMER THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD BE PLACED ON THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST TO FIND THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THE CONSUMER DID NOT AGREE WITH THE DEALER NOR THE MECHANIC. *AK THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON DRY PAVEMENT, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN GEAR, AND SUSTAINED NO PREVIOUS DAMAGE. *SC THE CONSUMER SIFFERED MINOR INJURIES. *JB

HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT UNEXPECTEDLY. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND DEALER INDICATED THAT RELAY SWITCH WAS CORRODED DUE TO WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID GETTING DOWN INTO THE SWITCH. *AK THE CORROSION WAS CAUSED BY THE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID SPILLING INTO THE RELAY. *LA

PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE'S ENGINE AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS.*MR THE DEALERSHIP NEVER DID CORRECT THE DASHBOARD LIGHT PROBLEM. THE ENGINE WOULD DIE WITH OUT WARNING AND AT TIMES WHILE THE CONSUMER WAS MAKING A TURN. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TOOK ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, WHO FIXED ALL THE PROBLEMS, HOWEVER THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO STALL, THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSIS THE ENGINE STALLING BECAUSE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CODING, WHICH MEANT THE COMPUTER DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM. *JB *NM

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH OUT ANY WARNING. AFTER A FEW MINUTES THE VEHICLE WOULD START UP AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM TWICE ALREADY FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM AND NEEDED TO GO TO THE SHOP AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. *JB

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, BUT MOSTLY WHEN SLOWING DOWN, VEHICLE DIED. WHEN THIS OCCURRED VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER, ALMOST RESULTED IN A REAR END COLLISION. ALTHOUGH DEALERSHIP SERVICED THE VEHICLE 6 TIMES IT WAS UNABLE TO RESOLE THE PROBLEM. *AK

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. *AK
