upstate 09-16-2005, 09:55 PM Here is an XLR that is a GM buy back for sale on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cadillac-XLR-Roadster-HIGH-PERFORMANCE-CONVERTIBLE-LOW-MILES-SMOKE-FREE_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ98059QQitemZ457560 4652QQrdZ1#mainImage Item nuber: 4575604652 Quixotic 09-19-2005, 04:18 PM How do you know this is a buy back? My understanding is that there would no longer be a warranty on a buy back vehicle. Robin 09-19-2005, 04:28 PM 3 of the picture's show a document that states the XLR was a buy back and the reason for said buyback. Also the remaining warranty is intact . What I found interesting is the reason for the Buy Back Robin standby 09-19-2005, 07:44 PM I also find it interesting that GM would not go the extra mile to find out what the real problem was and solve it.................way to go GM 3 of the picture's show a document that states the XLR was a buy back and the reason for said buyback. Also the remaining warranty is intact . What I found interesting is the reason for the Buy Back Robin Pegasus 09-20-2005, 01:12 PM O.K., we all give . . . what was the reason for the buy back?? Robin 09-20-2005, 01:22 PM Battery going dead for no reason. If I understand the Doc. The fix was replacing the Battery. In otherwords the problem was a BAD battery. That is what I found interesting. BUY A CAR BACK JUST BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS BAD. That is a dealer I would stay away from. mswaim 09-20-2005, 02:09 PM Actually, it says the problem was an "intermittent dead battery" so I guess it is similar to my "intermittent top failure". They also say "customer concerns not duplicated - vehicle is operating to specs at this time". My top also functioned within specs; most of the time.................... You never know, the original buyer may be a fleet-level purchaser whose business both GM and the dealer valued over the small amount they will actually lose in such a deal. Buybacks are not that uncommon, however the dealer plays a large role and if you piss them off or they feel you are being unreasonable you will have a tough time of it. standby 09-20-2005, 02:09 PM Didn't notice that they replaced the battery, but it could have been an electrical draw on the battery that they couldn't find, therego, By Back.Battery going dead for no reason.
