"A quality disappointment"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Main engine seals/gaskets began leaking at 45,000 miles.

Two power window lift motor's have failed.

Vehicle suspension vibrates at speeds in the 65-75 MPH range.

General comments?

I have been totally disappointed with this car, I have owned many cars over the years and have never landed such an obvious lemon. I have been in self denial that my car could be engineered so poorly, but I am now convinced after reading the many owner reports from across the country. I was wrong to think purchasing a fairly late model used American luxury sedan before a foreign auto to be the right purchase with my money. Buying American was the wrong decision! the Total Quality failed, I am now looking to get out of this car ASAP. And to think, I was planning to keep this car for ten or more years.

I disagree, I have owned many cars, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, BMW 325, I was in an accident with my Cadillac. I was at a dead stop, when a car came flying around the corner at 65 miles per hour.

The car hit me dead on. and I mean dead on in the center.

The car rolled back a bit, the car never turned off, the air bags didn't even deploy. It didn't even know it was hit!

You look at the front of the car, and its surely totaled, but the thing DROVE AWAY from the accident own its OWN!

My wife and I walked away with out a single scratch!

If you get hit in this car, you will POSITIVELY SURVIVE it.

I should be dead right now.

If that's not superb engineering, then I don't know what is!
