Used 2012 Cadillac CTS Consumer Reviews

My dream car

Love this car,car of my dreams,finally bought it and now the reasonable thing to do is sell her due to moving to the montana mountains! NowI need a suv.This is a beautiful car and gets a lot of attention.Beautiful black diamond tri coat that sparkles in the sun.BEAUTIFUL!

Great Machine !!

This car is a very nice looking car and get great performance. The back seat is nice but not much leg room.

Caddy comfort

It's really great in winter weather with all wheel drive and is very comfortable to drive. I love the dependability of my car.

first cadillac bought brand new

I bought this car brand new in June of 2012. The car is great, no repairs yet. I do all the maintenance myself. The ride is so smooth it's like sitting on your sofa. I recommend using the mobil 1 for oil changes. Also the comfort is great and I get many compliments on the look of the car. Best car I ever had. I had a 1968 Cadillac Coupe Deville and ride wasn't as good as our 2012 CTS. This is something new beginning 2019 with about 58000 miles and 6.5 years of ownership electrical issues are drivers door lock stopped going up and down automatically. The seat no longer goes to selected drivers position upon entering or exiting the vehicle. You have to do both issues manually. No big deal, but time to start thinking about something new. Still a great car the best thing about the car are its looks and the diamond white paint job.

Sade, was a smooth operator!

I drove Sade, (I always name my cars) for about 8 years with no issues, not one. I kept her maintained and she performed everyday. Her body style still rivals a lot of the newer cars on the road. She now has a new home giving top notch performance for someone else. Now I am looking for another CTS. It will be my third. Love Cadillac and made in the 🇺🇸

Wife loves it

slightly disappointed

Ok, this is my third cadillac in succession and i have driven the DTS and STS for a while before i finally ended up with a CTS 2012. Style and Design are the best in class, which I must say is the biggest lure to buy a CTS. Performance is great, has good power and handles better in corners. I am surely disappointed with the drive comfort level, seats itself aren't bad, something about the drivers position and may be the suspension. It gave me a neck ache after a couple hours drive. Love the pop up nav screen.

Stay away! Keep family Away

I bought an 2012 CTS Lux. It was used with 11,000 miles on it by an one owner who upgraded every six months. In May 2014 I had to take it in due to my airbags randomly being deployed while it was parked in my garage. Under warranty Cadillac replaced both driver and passenger airbag and also said the wiring was messed up and they corrected it. November of 2014 the airbag light came on and I took it down to Cadillac (45 minute drive from where I lived. Same dealer that I bought it from) get there and was told they would get right on looking at it because it was a slow day. 4 hours later I get told they couldn't find out what was wrong with the car and just reset the light. April 21, of 2015 my car now has 32,000 miles on it and I'm on vacation visiting family 900 miles away from home. i drove to a friends house to pick her up to go get my oil changed before I headed back home. My car is off and parked. My keys are in my pocket my wallet and cell phone along with a newer MacBook Pro is in my car locked. My cars electronics for the navigation and airbags and everything else catches fire and destories my trunk and everything in the back seat before the fire is able to be put out. My insurance totals the CTS but they get out of paying GAP of 5,000 dollars. Granted I paid a lot more on my car payments then my 500 dollar a month payment. I contact Cadillac and my insurance both because now I'm stuck with a 500 dollar car payment on a car that is now torched. Cadillac want nothing to do with it since no one died and insurance said they don't care and not there job too. We've always bought GM products and now I think we will be sticking with paying higher repair bills with European cars then with American anymore. So if you are serious about buying this car ask yourself is your life or families live worth the risk?

Buyer Regrets.. Cadillac should only be leased..

We bought our son a cadillac there 10 years ago.. We took really good care of it with regular oil changes etc It only had 73,000. When we got it already had 13,000 so he really only drove it 60,000 and in June the engine quit. We took it to Banks and they said it would be like $7000 or more to fix it and it wasn't even valued at $7000. I really felt bad as there was absolutely nothing wrong with this car as far a rust or dents or scratches and the interior was in really great condition. I can't believe that Cadillac doesn't make a car that can't go more than 73,000. I have had an oldsmobile that went to 218,000, a blazer that went to 140,000 and I still have a Hyundai that has 115,000. These are all just regular cars, I really thought if we got a Cadillac..It was built to last. but I guess I was wrong. Last April 2016.. We bought a 2016 truck and 2012 Cadillac in the same week. Paid cash. We paid $21,000 for the Cadillac and I just took it to a dealer who now says that it is only worth $13,000. wow an $8000 loss on a car we have had a year and a half. It had 47,000 when we got it and it now has 57,000. It is in the garage most of the time now as I am afraid to use it to have happen to it what happened to the 2007. We had a Cadillac previous to these to that the head gasket went on as well. I guess I should have done more research on these cars and looked at reviews.. I really regret buying this car... These cars only meant to be leased I guess so you only have them for 2 years and get rid of them. I will be posting my reviews of these cars on all sites that I can. It is definately Buyer Beware. I won't EVER buy another Cadillac..nor will I tell anyone else to do so. Thank you for reading this Rita Richardson

Black diamond

I bought this car new and the only driver It's always garage kept, I use full synthetic motor oil ( mobil one ) It's been at the dealership for It's recommend services and one minor issue, The car is painted black ( black diamond paint ) black leather upholstery and full amenities, bluetooth, xm , back up camera, heated and air condition bucket seats, tint windows, the list goes on and on, the only reason It's for sale, is I'm up in age (78 ) and I don't drive it much, and to let it set in the garage is a shame. there has never been any passengers in the back seat. this car looks brand new with 39000 thousand . and It always draws a lot of comments.
