I bought this car used in May of 2017. It’s a beautiful car for sure but it’s been nothing but a money pit since the day I got it. I’ve replaces the throttle body, auxiliary coolant pump, the regular coolant pump, spark plugs, coil packs, the cooling fan resistor, all 4 hubs, the battery 2x, and the headlights are the biggest pain to change. My passenger back window stopped working, park assist stopped working, and my engine light is more than not always on. If I knew what I was getting into I wouldn’t have bought the car. I did some research before purchasing to see what the common problems were and the timing chain aka $$$ was the only real problem that could occur. Im hoping I can keep this car running until I can save up for a Subaru... I feel like I’m driving a lemon and it’s just a huge waste of money. I’m afraid to drive it far distances because it’s every other week with this thing. Who knows what will go wrong next...

If you are looking at a vehicle with a GM 3.6 motor run away, it's junk and GM knows it bit won't stand behind the trash they build.

The last time I bought a GM product was 2004 and after three transmissions, swore I would never buy another. In an effort to help the US auto industry, I decided to try again. The transmission in the caddy has been slipping since purchase. The original diagnosis was a computer issue and some shims. The problem has progressed and we are headed back to the dealer again. The radio/NAV went out after 15,000 miles and brakes were replaced after a recall. Overall, the car looks good especially from the exterior. However, for nearly $50,000, I would have hoped for a car I could rely on. This ain't it!
Really like this car 6 months later.

Straight through the gas spike crisis, this car managed approx 21MPG pretty hard driving. The vehicle tracks incredibly on the highway and might have the best overall feel of any car we purchased including nearly every foreign brand.
GREAT CAR

My first American car in 30 years and I finally have a car I'm happy to say is as good as my Lexus, BMW and Mercedes I've had in the past. I hope GM keeps up the good work.
