 I purchased new 2001 cadillac seville on december 22, 2000. my car riddled with problems. in february 2001, dealer changed 13 tires to match 4 tires. then in august andf october 2001 they ordered 4 new controlled tires, perfect tires from detroit factory. vibration continued. then, in nov 2001 i contacted gm executive office in detroit, also area service manager. this time dealer changed 4 rotors, and installed 4 new high grade michelin tire. car still vibrates, sometimes you feel that front end will collapse. cadillac has no idea where it is coming from, rims, suspensions, brakes, frame. meantime car still vibrates badly.*ak (tiresize: 225-60)

 When traveling 30 mph on highway, all four goodyear tires shake. there is a bad vibration. *ak 4 new controlled tires were installed that experienced the same vibration as the previous tires, so the dealer changed the tire brand to michelin and replaced the rotors due to pulsation, consumer states they have replaced a total of 21 tires and the problem still exists, possible suspension problem. hood was misaligned on the drivers side, dealer made adjustments. weatherstrip was not sealing and caused trunk to leak. ses light illuminated, dealer could not find problem. *jb
