"I Love my Cadillac"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Transmission would not go past 50mpg

Ignition System went bad and car was unable to start.

General comments?

This is a luxury car for sure.

Power, Handling, and Comfort with some to spare.

Car was 4500.00 plus 1000.00 for a new transmission.

Car ran well until suddenly the car would not start due to a theft system in the ignition. The new ignition was 400.00. I drove the car home put my sub woofers back in the trunk and boom the car would not start. It will only click. So now something else has went bad. I hope this problem doesn't linger to long.

My 1995 sedan deville won't start due to theft system. I tried a different key and that didn't work either. Is the problem the ignition??? Can I disconnect the theft system??

It keeps saying "wait three minutes". I try to start it and it says "wait three minutes again" over and over... any suggestions on what to do??? Help!!!
