1991 Cadillac DeVille Sedan Deville review from North America
"Outstanding, reliable vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
We've had very little repairs over the last 12 years.
Air conditioner had to be replaced in 2001. Heater currently doesn't work, but who cares in Texas.
The motor for the antenna went out a couple times, the last time we just cut the cable to it and left it up. Works fine.
General comments?
This has been an outstanding vehicle. It has never failed to take me to work every day. We call it old faithful.
The finish on the car is still smooth and shiny, even after many years of sitting outside in over 100 degree heat.
This car still has the original motor, transmission, body parts, and even headlights! Throughout the years we did regular maintenance (i.e., changed oil every 3000 miles - used Valvoline). This great old car does not use oil and still runs almost as smooth and quiet as when we got it.
Best of all it gets approx. 30 mpg on the highway and 23 mpg city.
