| 2002 | SUSPENSION:FRONT | THE COMPLAINT RECEIVED VIA E-MAIL. I PURCHASED A 2002 CADILLAC SEVILLE SLS WITH 29000 MILES ON THE CAR. IT HAD A TERRIBLE VIBRATION THAT COMES THROUGH THE SEAT AND THE STEERING WHEEL. I BALANCED THE TIRES 3 TIMES, ALIGNED IT, REPLACED ROTORS AND FINALLY REPLACED THE CADILLAC WHEELS AND TIRES THAT CAME ORIGINALLY FROM THE FACTORY. THE VIBRATIONS ARE THE SAME. ACCORDING TO A WEB SITE I FOUND, AT LEAST SEVEN OTHER SEVILLES ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE SPENT OVER $1500 SINCE SEPTEMBER OF 04 AND HAVE NOT FOUND THAT TIRES AND WHEELS ARE THE PROBLEM. THE CAD DEALER HAS NOT A CLUE AS TO WHAT TO DO FOR ME. CADILLAC CASE NUMBER IS 1-2943339661. *AK *SC *JB |
