I've had my 01 Catera since purchasing it new in 9/01. I traded a 97 Catera that had developed several problems a local Cadillac dealer did not satisfactorily repair. I changed dealers and bought the 01, and basically have been satisfied during my 26 months of ownership and 26K miles. There have been a few minor problems, but the dealer has taken care of them and treated me well.

The car looks great, drives great and has gives me excellent gas mileage. The engine should have more pep. The engine should run a bit more quietly.

This Car is Junk

I purchased this vehicle and it has been in the shop more than on the road. Even the people at the auto parts store said, you didn't buy one of these. It's not a Cadillac, it's a piece of junk. Everything is going wrong with it, and it has cost us just about as much in repairs as the car did to begin with. And today we found out that a oil sensor is bad, but they tell us that if they try and replace it at the Cadillac dealer, there is a chance that it will mess up the entire engine, and the engine will have to be replaced. And Cadillac does not cover this, even though it is a design flaw. Do not buy this car. I have had other Cadillacs, and by far this is the worst.

The car is fun to drive and has great brakes. The main thing is, the dealership has had the car almost as much as I have. I am just getting my third waterpump today and I am dumping this thing. It would be a good car if it was just reliable. The dealer is of no help either. If you don't drive one of the big Cadillacs, they don't want to give you the time of day.
