GM isn't the only one with head gasket problems, check out my sebring convertible forum, we have posts there with failed head gaskets.

I wish you hadn't traded out your Caddy, because now you'll forever bash Cadillac, and GM. I was in a new Subaru today that fish-tails in the wind, and it's barely 3 years old. The owner says he needs new shocks, in three years?? I've a friend with a Toyota Corolla with not even 100,000 miles and had major work done it because it was sucking up oil AND leaking it. He discovered that driving home from DC to Michigan.

No car is ever perfect unless you own it from Day 1 and know it from the inside out, err, except for the Toyota, that was new when they bought it, so there goes that idea. oh well.

Good luck to you.
