"A high maintenance, high performance car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

At 90814 miles needed $2300 worth of repairs. New headlamps, turn signal lights, radio, generator, EGR valve, etc.

At 110000, needs a new transmission. It's sitting in the garage right now.

Love to drive this car. Kids hate riding in it because back seats sit so low.

Interior still looks brand new.

General comments?

This car has tons of power and handles like a dream in good and bad weather.

Very expensive to repair.

Dealer quoted me $880 for a new windshield.

As far as the transmission goes - I would check with someone else. I had a De Ville the dealer told me I needed a new transmission and it turned out to be a fuse. Many of the Cadillacs have electronic transmission and sometimes (who knows why) a fuse will blow that controls the shift solenoids. When this happens the transmission goes into a "safe mode) and only works in third and fourth. I had this happen to me and when I finally did the research and replaced the fuse - the car was back to normal. The early 90's Cadillacs - all of them are especially suspect - a shift solenoid is about $300 to replace if needed. I would have this checked out by someone else before believing in the dealer.

As far as the windshield - if it is not the heated type - I had mine replaced by a local auto glass company for only $220.

Good luck.
