Yota is going from bad to worse!

Now some Corollas and Camrys are being recalled due to steering issues, not to mention the Prius issue........ Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

That's really too bad. They had such a good product. How did a company that was so honed into quality let all this happen?

GM is trying to make me buy a Toyota - and they are succeeding!!!

I drive a 2006 Cadillac DTS. This car has been a real money pit with all sorts of problems which should neveer happen, Like a brake failure at 40,000 miles. ( I had to pay since brakes are consumable.)

Or a message that the tire pressure monitor needs servicing. Took car in, said it would cost $110 but car needed tires so they didn't do it. Tires are good for another 20,000 miles.

Then it developed a flicker in the headlights. Couldn't diagnose it unless it quit - which it did yesterday. Seems like they have special headlight which operate on 40,000 volts and the ballast was bad. Cost was $579 which included $200 labor. Seems that you have to remove the front bumper to fix a headlight. WHAT ARE THE IDIOTS AT GM THINKING.

Also, the car has what they call stabilitrak which applies the brake on one front wheel if it is slipping. The brake comes on sometimes when driving straight down a dry highway. How safe is that? Dealer says they can't do a thing unless the warning light comes on - which it didn't.

This car preumably is as good as they get in the USA. That is scary.

Toyota may have a problem, but GM certainly does - and more so.

And its not just GM. To rebuild an engine in a Ford pickup, it is nesessary to remove the truck cab.

What the hell are they thinking.

Check into the Lemon Laws in your state. I think you might have a
case.

GM is giving $1000 rebate on certain new vehicles if you have a Toyota 1999 or newer!!!! This is until March, 1 I think. You don't need to
trade it in, just show your registration and you get the extra $1000.

I drive a Yukon and it's been trouble-free so I guess I'll get another
and hope for the best. Shocked

Things like you posted scare me. Shocked
I've known others that have had lots of problems with Cadillacs.
Just shouldn't be!!
