1986 Cadillac DeVille review from North America
"One of the most comfortable cars made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 156,000 I had to replace rack and pinion,
front and rear brakes, rotors and drums
rear shock mounts
front drive axles.
All these items expect brakes pads and shoes were "OE" never replaced
before.
General comments?
I love this car, It was purchased new by my father in law. I'm the second owner. The car has an awesome ride and
is reliable. the shocks and front end lasted 16 years. That's GM quality.
Spacious interior, beautiful comfortable seats. Very quiet
little or no road noise. this car is made for highway travel.
