1989 Cadillac Eldorado review from North America
"Many not-so-good surprises"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Driver's door lock wouldn't open.
Leaking radiator, leaks in transmission hose, and power steering hose (manufacturer's defect regarding radiator and coolant--need Cadillac tablet to prevent overheating and a blown gasket).
Problems with brake system and emergency brake.
General comments?
Fast power.
Roomy.
Easy to drive, handles well.
