My 2012 Cadillac CTS has 79k miles and on Dec 21 I was out shopping when my car started struggling to start. I thought it was the battery considering I had to replace the battery already once since buying the car 7 months prior. But it started and off I went. I then started hearing a knocking sou…

Now aren’t you glad you paid your GM certified mechanic the $150.00 to thoroughly check out this Cadillac?

I saw the APR of 16.99 that the OP has . Actually surprised a bank would take that loan . The dealer is most likely wanting to avoid any more business because they will have to low ball the vehicle trade in. Then getting a new loan with the left over amount is going to be difficult. Not going to gu…

16.99 % and he overpaid for the car besides, no wonder he has so much anger. I have never wanted any car bad enough to overpay for it or bought a car I could not afford. I have bought at least 8 cars under $400 when I did not have hardly any money and they all got me anyplace I wanted to go.

the 3.6 ohc motor seems touchy. funny that our 2016 equinox with warranty has a valve train noise that the dealer says is normal. until the warranty expires than it will not be normal. a pushrod motor with nice heads and 30 less hp would be fine. no bleeping variable cam phasers to screw up

Implied warranty only means that the engine has to run. It did run for 7 months so that’s a non-issue. The dealer gave you a 3 months warranty so you’re 4 months out of luck. And you willingly signed a 16+ % car note on an overpriced car. Ouch… A cut and paste below.. Blockquote California Car…

Just to chime in again, I have always had good credit but back in the 80’s I needed a car and the best I could get was 18% from the bank. After two years the rates came down a little so I went down to refinance. The VP said why bother, you’ve just been paying interest for two years and now you are…

I am curious to know what is really wrong with the engine. Did a connecting rod break? If it were my car, I would be tempted to pay to have the pan removed to see what might have happened. Failures in engines follow a distribution called the negative exponentially distribution. For a large numbe…

Don’t feel like The Lone Ranger. You could be describing me.
Now, what was I writing about?

I think some of it could be that I can finally fully relax, being retired. In Florida for the winter season, I jokingly say that I’m on vacation from being retired.
