I had wondered what is up with the values dropping .. the negativity is big, in non-Cadillac sites. read on ... quote:
"The 1993 Allante is an electronic disaster" What things have gone wrong with the car? The rear pull-down top motor had to be replaced.The passenger side ''''''''quick down'''''''' window regulator was replaced.The automatic ''''''''up-down'''''''' radio aerial motor was replaced.The crankshaft sensor and MAP sensor were replaced.The fourth range up-shift solenoid kit and attendant computer chip had to be replaced. Dealer on first try failed this installation completely!The drive train computer had to be replaced.The CD read head no longer works. This is a $600.00 plus repair.The vehicle has inexplicably ''''''''gone dead'''''''' two times and had to be trucked into the dealer for service. General comments? This vehicle is a liability and I am earnestly in process to get rid of it. Cadillac Division of General Motors deserves a huge expletive for allowing this machine to be sold. I will never buy another Cadillac Division automobile...ever. quote:
"Beautiful 1993, fun, but dangerous" What things have gone wrong with the car? If the automobile sits in the sun and car temperature goes up, the doors refuse to unlock from inside and the driver and passenger cannot exit the car. This happened also on my 1991 Allante. It is a potentially dangerous situation. Cadillac knows and has published info and manufactured a replacement part which can no longer be obtained. Should be a recall. quote:
"Nice for the price I paid, but will sell her"What things have gone wrong with the car? Needed a water pump when first acquired, the electronic system is a nightmare and the panel is constantly saying my turn signals and brake lights are out which they are not. Also says I need washer fluid which was filled. I''''d like to take a hammer to that panel! And I can''''t read the digital speedometer, it comes on when it feels like it. Sun visors are loose.Seat-belts are a horror story! Motor for the top does not work, you have to manually push it down and hope it locks in place. General comments? So many problems for a Cadillac that started out at $65,000.00. Thank God we got it in a trade deal and did not pay much for it. I will have fun with it for awhile then dump it .
