2001 Cadillac DeVille DHS review from North America

At 52,000 miles we replaced the water pump. Was told it was normal for Cadillac.

Then then at about 60,000 the motor began to shake and jerk. We had it at 2 dealers; couldn't fix. I took it to a independent shop. They replaced the rubber boot between the throttle body and intake, and also replaced the intake gasket. Shop said it was normal for a Cadillac.

We then replaced the sensor on the right front wheel at about 68,000.

We are on our 3rd window regulator on the front passenger door. We now have to replace the left rear window regulator. We were told the same - this is common for Cadillac.

The electronics in the left rear door are not working now. The front is banging and making a noise; I have never had a car do that.

The drivers front seat motor keeps sticking.

I have to add a quart sometimes 2 quarts of oil between each each 3,000 mile oil change. I asked about it, and was told a lot of Cadillacs do that.

There is a vibration in the rear end and I was told Cadillac's do that.

The latest, just yesterday, at 98,000 miles the servo motor on the HVAC quit working. I will take it to get fixed, and they will tell me that's normal for a Cadillac.

I drove my last 2 cars to 200,000 miles. I won't get it from this Cadillac. I can't continue to shell out money to fix, and I'm get tired of being told that is normal. I'm currently looking at Toyota's,Nissan's & Honda's. I won't buy another American car. The quality is not in them anymore.

We like the way it drives and rides when it doesn't need repairs.
