So far reliability of mechanical performance - brakes, tires.
Advice to buyer:
Check around carefully and see if other drivers have these same problems or more.
Detailed review:
Purchased this vehicle in 5/03. Was very happy until this week. First problem was the check engine light which was a very minor incovenience. Brought it in, repaired under warranty, spent 3 hours, ok not so bad. At 6600 miles front brake caliper locked up. Again warranteed and also rotated tires. 2 1/2 months later, at 9000 miles brought in for oil change,inspection,asked check brakes (said fine - we'll see), and check tires - excessive wear. Here's the problem, couldn't inspect front tires too worn. At 9000 miles? Just paid $340 for two new tires. Couldn't get satisfaction from dealer. Manager of service department very unpleasant and not helpful. called Cadillac, said have to pay first then we will try to help you. Again we will see what they do. At this point I am very upset. If the brakes and tires already went, what is next?
