2002 CADILLAC DEVILLE Complaints

CONSUMER WAS BLIND, AND HIS WIFE DROVE HIM AROUND. BUT SHE WAS HAVING TROUBLE SEEING BECAUSE THERE WAS A FOUL SMELL THAT CAME INTO THE VEHICLE, AND THE SUBSTANCE BURNT HER EYES. CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER/MECHANIC 3 TIMES, BUT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT RESOLVED. MECHANIC TOLD CONSUMER THAT HE WAS WAITING FOR A PART BEFORE HE COULD REPAIR THE PROBLEM. *AK

THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM FAILED WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 30 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. AS A RESULT THE VEHICLE HAD A COLLISION WITH A PARKED VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO FATALITIES TO REPORT. THE DEALER WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. *AK THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR WHILE BRAKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND REPAIRED. *PH *NLM

ACCELERATOR ON CAR WAS STUCK AT HIGH RPM. HITTING THE GAS PEDAL RESULTED IN IT BEING STUCK AT A HIGHER RPM RATE. TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED. PROBLEM STILL EXISTED. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. DEALER REPLACED DEFECTIVE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALUE. *LA

CAR STALLED OUT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MILES PER HOUR. DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WITH NO POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. HAD I BEEN DRIVING AROUND A CORNER, ON THE HIGHWAY OR GOING DOWN A HILL, THIS WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. AUTO HAD TO BE TOWED, WOULD NOT START AGAIN. DEALER SAID PROBLEM WAS THE FUEL PUMP FAILURE. FUEL PUMP ALSO FAILED ON 08/04/2003. IN THAT INSTANCE, THE AUTO WAS STOPPED AND WOULD NOT START. APPEARS FUEL PUMP DESIGN IS DEFECTIVE AND VERY UNSAFE. I DID NOTICE OTHER COMPLAINTS ON YOUR WEB SITE FOR THIS MODEL/YEAR CAR THAT SHOW THE AUTO STALLING OUT WHILE BEING DRIVEN. THESE MIGHT ALSO BE RELATED TO THE SAME PROBLEM. *LA
