| Driving into my drive way i noticed that my car pulled in very fast. normally, i idle in my car into the drive way, this time it was much faster and the engine was very accelerated. i parked the vehicle and the engine was accelerated up to 1850rpm. i pressed the gas pedal to free up the throttle, it made is worst. the vehicle rpm increased up to 2835 rpm and stayed stuck at 2835 rpm. after 10 to 15 seconds the rpm slowly dropped down to 1500 rpm and stayed at these revolution. i had to turn off the vehicle. it's normal idle rpm are 675-700rpm. this is a safety hazard for some one that does not know what to do when driving at a busy highway or regular city streets. | |||

| Gas-like fumes are coming through the air vents and air-conditioning in the car while driving in the city and on the highway. i have reported this to customer service for cadillac. this is the third time i have taken my car in for the gas -like fumes. two times the engine/motor was cleaned because there was a very bad carbon build-up. on april 9, 2002 i took my car back ( 3rd time). i was told the fuel injection system needs to be replaced. so far, i have not heard from the service dept. at cadillac of memphis. this part was supposed to be ordered the very same day. there have been several complaints in this area from consumers about the gas-like smells in their cars. i need to know if this will cause a health risk because i don't know how much carbon i have been inhaling. no one is telling consumers why this problem is occuring. every time i have to take my car in i have to miss one day of work of which i am not paid. maybe we will get some answers with your help. thank you! | |||
