When I first got the car, everything was ok. Then, the engine starting messing up and I had to replace tires
That the car I drive can be a little bit difficult to drive

This is the last year of El Dorado's Cadillac made.
I love the styling, I love the Northstar engine. I love how well it rides and how comfortable it is. I don't like that it is starting to nickel and dime me with repairs.

Long lasting sport Cadillac.
It's a nice little car that gives you the luxury and the sport all in one car. The durability is there as well as the car has over 100, 000 miles and still running strong. The worse part would be the fuel mileage and the fact you can only use premium fuel.

It's a relic, drives beautifully & will be the last car I own.
This model is not made anymore & is from the collector series.

The problems of a Cadillac.
The vehicle has had many issues. Heater coil leaks, head gasket blown, window regulators went out 3 times, thermostat keeps malfunctioning and the car overheats a lot. Not the greatest on gas. It was a nice car at first but after 2 years of having it there's been a lot of issues.

Is The 2002 Cadillac Eldorado A Good Car?

It was back in 2002, now it still hold up but the amount of repairs don't hold a candle to the cost it used to be
Hannah S.

How Reliable Is The 2002 Cadillac Eldorado?

It was very reliable now the engine is starting to go hence the repairs. I fear the worst as the cost of the engine will be to much for the cost of the car
Dave A.

Is The 2002 Cadillac Eldorado A Good Value?

It was a good value back in 2006 and onward but now its just becoming a sinkhole showing its age and everything that is going to be wrong with it
