Airbag light keeps coming ondashboard. Took vehicle to dealer, and they said it was a defective coil.
The contact owns a 1995 cadillac concours.he stated that the service air bag light illuminated and remained on.the dealer stated that they would repair the service air bag light but there would be a charge.the current mileage was 102,081 and the failure mileage was unavailable.
Electrical system malfunctioned, causing remote control/security system/lights to fail.
While driving up an incline on hot day with ac on i got message no charge, and "engine hot shutdown soon", & ac compressor off! (a no brainer with belt shredded!!) as well as steering going numb. When i looked under the hood the serpentine belt had slipped off the pulleys & shredded.upon closer inspection it was determined that the power steering pump "adapter" has a leak that drips oil directly onto the belt & pulleys which are smooth with nothing to stop belt from sliding off should a leak occurs. I have been unable to find "power steering pump adapter" in salvage yard & its out of production at gm & not in stock at my local dealer.
Severevibration between 50 to 80 mi. Per hour. Have spent over $1000.00 to try to remedy problem. Dealership said they can't do anymore and it must be a manufacturing defect. There is also a very loud popping noise when the steering wheel is turned in either direction. It comes from either side and possibly chassis. At first thought it was struts or bearings. Complete front end repair did not fix the noise. Car has never been in an accident either. There is also a problem with changing gear shift from parking to reverse or drive on an incline. Sometimes it jams and has to be jerked very had to go into gear. Other times it slips from gear to another. Have replaced brakes 2 times. Still has shudder upon pressing brakes regardless of speed. An offensive odor like rotten eggs, especially when using air conditioner. Dealership said they found this a lot in this certain vehicle. They do not know how to fix. It is a manufacturing defect. Owner before me has already replace the ignition module. A dealership said another manufacturing defect. Fuel pump wires were burned and replaced by previous owner. Battery cables also shorted out and were replaced on 8/29/03. Battery continues to be drained if vehicle has not been started within a 3 day period.

Car stalled at highway speeds intermittantly.
Computer failure.
Insulation covering wiring in the electric fuel tank burned off, exposing wires, causing a possible fire hazard.
Consumer had to replace the fuel pump.the wiring harness had caught on fire and melted the insulation on some of the wires destroying the electrical connector under the fuel outlet lines inside of the tank.the vehicle prior to the fire used to stall until it quit entirely.after consumer replaced the fuel pump, he noticed the old fuel pump was not the cause of failure.the wiring harness had failed because of an electrical fire.*jg
Removal of fuel pump revealed bare wiring inside fuel tank which shorted circuit.
Fuel pump failed, causing vehicle not to start. The insulation around fuel pump wires, that provided power to the electronic fuel pump, partially melted.since the wire are located inside the fuel tank this failure could have resulted in an explosion. *nlm
Fuel pump failed due to bare wire shorting out.

I went to start my car (1995 cadillac concourse) and before the engine turned-over, i heard a very loud pop, similar to a back fire, except that this noise came from underneath the hood.i then, simultaneously, noticed smoke coming from under neath the closed hood.i jumped out of the car and opened the hood to find that the engine was on fire.i ran back inside the house to get water and wet towels to try and put out the fire, which, after about 5 to 6 minutes, i was able to extinguish the fire.the engine had never caught on fire before this incident.damaged to the engine from the fire appeared to be substantial in terms of wires, hoses, various plastic covers associated with the engine.because i am not a mechanic, i can't say what kind of structural damage occurred during the fire.as a result of this fire, i have been without my vehicle since 5/7/09.the only way i have been getting to and from work is with the generosity of my family and friends.i called general motors on 8 may 09, to inform them of the fire, but, as of 6/13/09, general motors has refused to repair my vehicle, even though it is one of their vehicles that was under a recall for potential engine fires.the recall item is called a fuel rail.

I observed a liquid puddle about midway between the front and rear doors, on the driver side of the car.upon further examination i concluded the liquid was gasoline.i felt where i thought the leak was coming from and felt tubing.i felt the a tube line and it crumbled in my hand. Upon further visual inspection, i observed other areas (along the drivers door) that were also leaking gasoline.much of the gas line is crumbling plastic, causing gasoline to leak under the car.

Severevibration between 50 to 80 mi. Per hour. Have spent over $1000.00 to try to remedy problem. Dealership said they can't do anymore and it must be a manufacturing defect. There is also a very loud popping noise when the steering wheel is turned in either direction. It comes from either side and possibly chassis. At first thought it was struts or bearings. Complete front end repair did not fix the noise. Car has never been in an accident either. There is also a problem with changing gear shift from parking to reverse or drive on an incline. Sometimes it jams and has to be jerked very had to go into gear. Other times it slips from gear to another. Have replaced brakes 2 times. Still has shudder upon pressing brakes regardless of speed. An offensive odor like rotten eggs, especially when using air conditioner. Dealership said they found this a lot in this certain vehicle. They do not know how to fix. It is a manufacturing defect. Owner before me has already replace the ignition module. A dealership said another manufacturing defect. Fuel pump wires were burned and replaced by previous owner. Battery cables also shorted out and were replaced on 8/29/03. Battery continues to be drained if vehicle has not been started within a 3 day period.

Consumer complained of brakes pulsating and not braking smoothly, the rotors were turned and the brakes were placed, but this still did not solve the problem, the dealer finally found that the vehicle needed new rotors, the rotors were rusty and pitted and the brake pads had no surface to brake against which put more pressure on the rotors.

Power steering failure.
While driving up an incline on hot day with ac on i got message no charge, and "engine hot shutdown soon", & ac compressor off! (a no brainer with belt shredded!!) as well as steering going numb.

I have been unable to find "power steering pump adapter" in salvage yard & its out of production at gm & not in stock at my local dealer.
