Consumer Description

WE WERE TOLD THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDED REPAIR AT 3 WEEKS OUTSIDE OF THE FACTORY 5 YEAR WARRANTY, AT THE TIME THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 52,000 MILES. WE PRODUCED SERVICE RECORDS AS THEY ASKED BUT THE WARRANTY DEPARTMENT A CADILLAC ULTIMATELY OFFERED US NO HELP AND WE HAD TO PAY $2100 FOR THE REPAIR. WE CHECKED ONLINE PRIOR TO THIS AND FOUND NUMEROUS POSTS, AND SOME RECALLS FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM AS IT IS EXTREMELY COMMON ON THESE VEHICLES AND OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN/MANUFACTURING ISSUE. THERE PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL, AND AGAIN CADILLAC ASSUMED NO MONETARY RESPONSIBILITY.
