2001 Cadillac Seville sls review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only complaint I have is the 65 to 70mph vibration. I have done my research, talked with people on line, dealers and other owners in my area.
This is what I found. I replaced lower control arms with new gm updated ones, i replaced wheel bearings, rotors, tie rods, axles, hubs and last, but not least michelin, symmetry tires. None of these things help. The problem is a combination of two items. First I had my tires road force balanced that took care of a lot of the vibration, but not all. the second thing is lower motor mounts. These two things together have totally eliminated my problem. Just to let everyone no the only reason I kept my cool and went threw all this is because besides the vibration this car is awesome.
