Known issues on the 2002 DeVille. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year. One covers the ignition: a key knocked out of the run position can cause loss of engine power, power steering and power braking, and the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is then involved in a crash. Another covers the steering gear box, where a missing or under-torqued attachment bolt can lead to loss of steering control and a crash. A third covers the fuel tank assembly, where damaged components can leak fuel that ignites in the presence of a spark source. A fourth covers the frontal air bags, where the driver's side inflator can fracture at a weld during deployment, sending pieces into the cabin while the cushion fails to inflate fully. The fifth covers the front seat belt retractors, which may not stay locked during a crash in which the pretensioners deploy, increasing injury risk to that occupant. Owners have filed 182 complaints for the year, and the factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From an ignition-lock inspection to a steering gear bolt check or a fuel tank pressure sensor diagnosis, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2002 DeVille.
