NHTSA Complaint #10632731 — 1999 CADILLAC STS

OUR STS STALLED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THE SCARIEST WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 65 MPH. THE CAR TOTALLY SHUT OFF, LEAVING THE CAR WITHOUT ANY POWER. WE WERE ABLE TO GUIDE THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND THANK GOODNESS IT STARTED AGAIN. ON SEVERAL OTHER OCCASIONS, THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF AND SOMETIMES WOULDN'T EVEN START UP RIGHT AWAY. THIS WAS VERY FRUSTRATING AND THE UNKNOWING, MADE DRIVING THIS CAR VERY UNPREDICTABLE. EVERY TIME WE BROUGHT THE CAR TO BE CHECKED THEY COULD NOT FIND "ANYTHING". FINALLY, AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SUGGESTED PUTTING IN A NEW STARTER AND THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THANK GOODNESS. THE SEVILLE STS IS NOW RUNNING, BUT THE A/C HAS GONE OUT. THE CAR IS TOO OLD TO EVEN FIX AT THIS POINT. *TR
