3 Power Train problem of the 2002 Cadillac Seville

Failure Date: 09/30/2008

Drive train cradle has weakened significantly from rust. While driving there is a looseness of the suspension felt and a shifting evident when accelerating and decelerating. I reside in minnesota and the d. O. T. Uses salt on the roads during the winter season and this has significantly accelerated corrosion of vehicles and their exposed components. Materials used for critical components on vehicles must withstand this factor or lives may be lost due to this corrosion, failure of the sub-frame cradle will be catastrophic loss of vehicle control . Help. . . The manufacturer should recall these vehicles and replace such a major component with a resistant component. Vehicle has been parked now since 2008 when this issue had been discovered. Beautiful car and I'd like the sub=frame replaced, only that component needed to enable roadability. Photo/s of degradation upon request.

Failure Date: 08/20/2008

While my wife was driving vehicle lost power while driving just after purchase from (lia infinity) dealership in albany, NY. Requested dealer take vehicle to Cadillac dealer for checkout which he said was done and returned without repair. Condition was intermittent and was therefore difficult to diagnose. After 1 year of ownership id problem as crankshaft sensor (part no. S 012575481 and 012575482) issue which was generally known in industry. Took vehicle to Cadillac dealer on 1/20/2009 (long Cadillac southborough, MA. 01772) and requested specific repair which cost $427. 56. Dealer insisted would not be warranted since I wasn't following dealer procedures which required dealer diagnosis at additional expense. Problem no longer persisted after replacing sensors but was extremely hazardous condition and Cadillac/gm was no help in repair or diagnosis during process.
