1999 Cadillac Catera review from North America
"The biggest dissapointment you'll ever have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Continual fluid leaks
Ignition coil packs and plugs
3 sets of tires that are supposed to last 80k each
4 Mass Air Flow sensors!!!
Fog Lights inoperable
broken headlight adjuster (common problem I have since found out AFTER the fact)
The list goes on and on...
General comments?
I would be even more angry that I am know for dealing with this car if I had paid the 40k sticker price new! Thought I got a good deal on price for this one used, but now I know why the "good" deal.
