Love the Big Caddies

Rides a little stiffer than the Deville. Has a smaller gas tank and lower MPG, but this is the big model available after the Deville was discontinued. If you like the comfort ride, this is your car. I have the Platinum model, and it is decked out. Still trying to find some of the features!

Unfortunate

Fuel pump relay keeps overheating/burning up. Have found MANY, MANY of the EXACT same problem from Cad owners. This should be a recall issue. We have replaced the fuel pump, fuse and entire relay box. Have never owned a vehicle with the same problem reported by so many owners.
