The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Defective part or component:

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
|
|
Description:
|
Some passenger vehicles equipped with 4.0 liter V8 engines have a condition in which the nylon tubing used in the fuel rail construction may degrade and crack. Additionally, the 1995 model year uses a unique underhood fuel return line that may crack at unusually high rates. Cracking of the fuel rail or return line tubing can result in a fuel leak into the engine compartment. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the engine fuel rail with a new stainless steel fuel rail. Dealers will also install a revised chassis fuel return line. The recall began on June 2, 2004, for 1996-1997 Oldsmobile Aurora vehicles. Owners of 1995 Cadillacs and 1996-1997 Oldsmobile Aurora were sent letters on August 6, 2004. Additional letters to owners will be forthcoming. Owners should contact Oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537.

Summary:

Luxury with a bite
By Professional Test Driver, NewCarTestDrive.com
To most, a high-performance 6-passenger luxury sedan probably sounds like an oxymoron. When attempting to appeal to a broader segment with the DeVille Concours, Cadillac hedged its bets by not going too far afield; hence the blocky hind quarters, downsized Northstar engine and slight steering drift. But all things considered, we were quite unprepared for the Concours' responsive handling and brisk acceleration in highway passing situations - not to mention its rubber-burning capacity from a dead stop. Established luxury-car buyers who still think of themselves as brimming with youthful vigor - but saw the STS as breaking too abruptly from the Cadillac tradition - should find the Concours to be an attractive compromise. |
|
Overview:
|
A TV commercial from the go-go '80s once told us that we could have it all - that we need not feel compelled to pick between comfort and excitement. And that ethic seems to be at the heart of the Cadillac DeVille Concours. When it made its debut in 1994, the Concours (pronounced kahn' kor) combined Cadillac's market-tested luxury appointments with the muscular Northstar powertrain. Cadillac seemed to be telling its traditional buyers - mostly middle-aged and older - that they could still ensconce themselves in Cadillac-style luxury without completely forgoing the speed-demon impulses of youth. Evidently, that message struck a chord, as the Concours accounted for 30 percent of all DeVille sales in '94. The '95 Concours offers a bevy of luxury and performance features as standard equipment - most notably, the aforementioned Northstar engine. In the Eldorado Touring Coupe and Seville Touring Sedan (STS), the Northstar is powered by 300 horses. In the Concours, however, the 4.6-liter DOHC V8 is a bit tamer - yielding 275 hp (five more than in '94) and 300 lb.-ft. The Concours' performance is enhanced by standard equipment such as a 4-speed electronic transaxle, speed-sensitive steering, road-sensing suspension, full-speed traction control, anti-lock brakes and a new-for-'95 Integrated Chassis Control System (ICCS). The ICCS is designed to shorten straight-line stopping distance, stabilize the brakes during high-speed turns and level out the traction control system in tight, low-speed maneuvers. Also standard on the Concours are cast aluminum wheels, dual airbags, remote keyless entry, flash-to-pass feature, rear-door child safety locks, leather seats, electronic climate control, two-position memory driver's seat, interior Zebrano wood appliques, 12-way power seats, illuminated front and rear vanity mirrors and stereo cassette player with 11 speakers. Our test model had a base price of $39,400 and came equipped with the following options: chrome wheels, premium sound system with CD player, PASS-Key II theft-deterrent system, heated front seats and electronic compass. These options boosted the MSRP to $42,141.
