2003 CADILLAC SEVILLE Complaints

FRONT FRAME MEMBER COLLIDES WITH GROUND EVEN ON SHALLOW DRIVEWAYS AND DRAINAGE SWALES. FRONT END IS MUCH TOO CLOSE TO THE GROUND. INSPECTED SEVERAL SEVILLES OF THIS MODEL AND FOUND DEEP GOUGES IN FRONT FRAME MEMBERS. IS FRAME WEAKENED? DEALER AND GM REP SAY DAMAGE IS NORMAL AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE. HAS HAPPENED SINCE FIRST MONTH OF OWNERSHIP. DEALER TECHNICIAN SAYS, "THAT'S NORMAL - THEY ARE ALL GOUGED AND SCRAPED LIKE THAT." *TR

TL* - WHILE DRIVING HIS 2003 CADILLAC SLS SEVILLE AT 68 MPH THE FRONT END BEGAN TO VIBRATE, AND THE CONTACT FEARED THAT HE WOULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT OBSERVED THE SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM LIGHT WAS LIT, AND IMMEDIATELY DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED AT THIS TIME. THE ROAD CONDITIONS AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WERE WET. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE SIX TIMES FOR THE SAME INCIDENT.*AK

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THERE IS NOT ENOUGH ROOM BETWEEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL. WHILE RELEASING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE CONTACT'S FOOT CATCHES ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN ALERTED.

THE DISPLAY PANEL IS HARD TO SEE WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. IT IS HARD TO SEE HOW FAST THE CONSUMER IS DRIVNG, HOW MUCH GAS IT HAS. *AK *ER
