1991 CADILLAC BROUGHAM
This model year
What the record shows
The 1991 Cadillac Brougham is a large car, and the 8th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1984 to 1996.
The EPA rated two configurations: engines from 5-litre eight-cylinder to 5.7-litre eight-cylinder, rear-wheel drive only, a single transmission, Automatic 4-spd and running on regular gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 16 to 17 mpg depending on which one you have.
The federal record holds 6 owner complaints and 1 service bulletin for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
