Other than a few maintenance problems which the dealer pleasantly took care of it has been a great car. Most Cadillacs look like tanks and this one has some style to it.
Competitors have problem cars too....

Yes, MB "S" w/engine lights that won't go off, brakes at 10K. BMW's w/bad climate ctrl sys, recalls. Forget Lexus & Infinity with the "smoke & mirror" advertising. Catera = excel car w/VALUE. In 3 yr. my Sport has performed flawlessly. Fit/finish, excellent. At 53k miles its tighter then the 5 series that I traded with 32k on it. The Catera has excellent traction control sys, trans, climate control, intr comfort & storage (w/folding rear seat). I've tried 3 diff. dlrs while traveling. Great! I wish the CTS matched Cateras intr. fit/finish, comfort, & quality. The Catera includes "fine points" you don't find on Amer, Japanese, & newer German cars.

Purchased used (20K) miles 2 years ago. Taken in 2 local dealership over 15 times since purchased. Car has cut out at stop lights/signs over 4 times & refused to start. Check engine light on, seat heat went out, power moon roof would not open, power window stopped working, coolant tank leaked, brake light switch defective so no brake lights etc. When car works, fun to drive. My warranty just expired so in process of looking for another car. Not a minute too soon because as of this morning, the car is stuck in my garage, refuses to start.
what have I bought

well what can I say this car has been in the shop more times than i can count. I bought the car used with only 5,000 miles on it. I thought I was getting myself into a nice vehicle. What I found is that these things have more problums than you can count. Steering to door locks to timeing belts, you name it coolant leaks. See autoweb.com for more. I can say RELIABILITY can be less than 0!!!

I bought this car for $5000 with 60k miles on it or so.10k miles later I was forced to get rid of it for $100. It has been on the market for so long and no longer would run. I kept pouring money into it and it never would work. Worse car I ever owned. The Catera isn't even Cadillac. The Cadillac dealer in my town refused to work on them. They said it wasn't a real Cadillac. I will never buy any GM car again.
