The intake manifold blew up in a puff of smoke when i turned the key, blew a hole right threw the end of the manifold!*nlm
The car stalled and was towed to a repair shop. The next day it was brought into the shop. The mechanic turned the ignition switch to start, and the intake manifold exploded, sending pieces of the manifold throughout the shop.the explosion also damaged the power steering pump. It was later discovered that the cause of the explosion was fuel that had collected in the manifold due to a crack in the plastic fuel rail. Sometime during 1993 the manifold was re-designed to alleviate this problem, however, there were no recalls, leaving thousands(?) of cars with this potential problem. I did find a dealer service bulletin canceling an exchange program for the intake manifolds for this model and year. (no: 93-i-58).*la
Intermittent back fire toward intake manifold, cracking manifold causing fire in engine compartment.
Antenna motor failed.
Brake lights on my 93 seville have been a problem since day one. I have replaced sockets and they continue to burn out, not the bulb but the sockets? i have asked other seville owners and they too have the same problem. Why hasn't this issue been addressed by gm. It is a safety issue?

Fuel line is leaking and can cause a fire. There was a recall on this part in 1993. There saying there is no open recall on the fuel lines. The description of the recall in 1993 is exactly what is going on with my fuel lines. Its spraying fuel out of one of the lines by the engine.
Startedthe vehicle and it made a loud bang and smoke came rolling out from under the hood, looked and seen the intake manifold has a hole blown threw it and damage to the cover.
While replacing the fuel filter, both rear brake lines were noted to be severly rusted.by the time the fuel filter was removed from the holding bracket (this bracket also holds the brake lines above the filter) the brake lines started to leak.manufacturer does not recommend undercoating, however dealership stated that when they replace brake lines they always undercoat the lines.now, sections of brake line have been replaced, however some sections of the line can't be easily reached and will remain in place.i'm worried that the lines will rupture when i'm driving and need to brake hard.help!

The fuel line is leaking. It could start a fire and i have children. I found a recall on this already on another site but didn't know if it would still be valid to get it replaced. I just bought the vehicle from an individual and then 2 months after this happened. Consequence: (fuel leaks in the engine compartment can result in underhood fires if exposed to a source of ignition) summary: (the fuel feed and return lines to the engine fuel injection system were not fully assembled and locked. The lines can work loose) remedy: (dealer will inspect vehicle and, if necessary adjust or replace the fuel feed and return lines to the engine fuel injection system) i have a 1993 cadillac seville sts v8 4.6lthat's what the recall said about the recall on this car. I have tried to buy new part but it is discontinued i am assuming because there's a recall.

Lost vehicle braking because of brake line tubing corrosion.i narrowly avoided rear ending the vehicle in front of me by quickly changing lanes into the left turn lane.it appears as though the brake tubing was not galvanized as the pitting corrosion was severe... The car is only 10 years old.i hope others will not be exposed to this sudden loss of a major safety system on the vehicle... The brakes!
