1982 Cadillac DeVille Sedan review from North America
"Greatest car in the world"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First car I've ever owned. Bought from some old guy who told me it was running great. Have had multiple problems.
Radiator leak.
Power steering pump went out.
Headliner collapsed. Stapled it back up. Looks better than before.
Fuel pump just quit.
Had massive oil leak.
Trunk won't stay up on its own.
All can be expected by a 20 year old car that's probably been sitting in a garage for the last 10.
General comments?
Nice smooth, comfortable ride.
Extremely roomy.
Nicest car on the road.
Even with all the problems I've had with this car I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love this car.
