ROLLED DOWN FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW USING THE DRIVER BUTTON AND WAS DOWN FOR ABOUT A MINUTE AND THEN AS I TRIED TO BRING IT BACK UP WITH THE SAME BUTTON THE WINDOW CAME UP AND THEN SLAMMED DOWN INSIDE THE WINDOW. THE PLASTIC GUIDES BROKE INSIDE AND HAD TO REPLACE. THE FOLLOWING WEEK, THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DID THE SAME THING. TODAY, MY WIFE GOT THE CAR WASHED AND THE ATTENDANT WAS UNABLE TO GET THE PASSENGER REAR WINDOW UP WITHOUT USING HIS HANDS TO HELP PULL IT BACK UP. I'M HOPING I'M NOT HAVING TO REPLACE THAT ONE SOON. IT LOOKS LIKE OTHERS HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PART! WE ARE ON OUR WAY TO PALM SPRINGS AND I HOPE THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN WHILE WE ARE ON VACATION!!!! *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET AT ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN ALL OF THE POWER TO THE CAR WENT DEAD. THE ENGINE WENT DEAD, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS WENT OFF, THE POWER STEERING WAS GONE, I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENED WITHIN THE FIRST 3 MONTHS OF MY OWNING THIS CAR AND STILL HAPPENS FREQUENTLY, AT LEAST ONCE EVERY THIRD TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO SEVERAL SHOPS BUT THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. I CALLED A CADILLAC DEALER TODAY BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN YEAR 2000 CADILLAC DEVILLE IS INCLUDED IN A RECALL, THE DEALER SAID MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL LIST. I AM FILING THIS REPORT TO MAKE IT KNOWN MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR CADILLAC HAS THE SAME PROBLEM CARS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS HAVE. *TR
