I have owned my DTS for 7-1/2 months now and although its alot of fun to drive and very comfortable the reliability has been horrible. It has been back to the dealer for 9 different warranty issues and 1 recall so far. Everything from suspension problems to moon roof leaking. The dealer is taking care of the problems as they arise but things are breaking faster than they can fix them. GM needs to go back to the drawing board on this one. There's more to it than glitz and glitter.

This has been the best car I have owned. It is my fourth Cadillac. My out of warranty expenses have been four new tires at 45,000 miles and an extensive check up at 60,000. My car currently has 63,000 miles on it. It has superior finish. The back up radar is very useful. I am trying to decide on how long to keep it. My friend has one with 125,000 miles on it and is happy.

This vehicle is exceptional all the way around!. One problem area is A/C fan assembly. This car has had two replacements, one in 2003 and one in 2006. The module in the fan housing/assembly, that controls fan speed, fails without warning. The vehicle is garaged in Florida.

The Cadillac DTS is a dependable car that is strong enough to caress any type of weather. There are enough sensors or more than enough to make you aware of whats going on with your car. I am satisfied enough to purchase the next one.

This car is wonderful. It rides like a dream, smooth, quite, and with plenty of room. It has wonderful features like heated seats in the front and back, air vents in the back, a pop hatch in the back arm rest for easy access to the trunk contents, wood grain dash, and smart system that tells you gas mileage, rmp, % of fuel, oil, and windshield wiper fluid life left. And many many other features.

I am probably the youngest DeVille owner and a 5'2" female, but I love my Cadillac DeVille! I have it really decorated nicely. I added more chrome to it. It is a really sharp car. Strangers ride up on me all the time and say "nice ride". I have friends that have Mercedes and BMWs and I leave them all cowering in the corner when I pull up in my platinum Caddy. They say my car is better than theirs. And I say, "I know"!

After 15,000 miles, our new DTS began smoking like a chimney and using 4 quarts of oil in 3,000 miles. Our dealer tells us this is normal for a Cadillac. I think we made a $50,000 mistake.

I have 48000 miles on my DTS in 2 years. Have had no problems, except for a broken lumbar switch on passenger seat. We have taken several long trips in the car, and it is ery comfortable and really performs. Absolutely love the Onstar system. It has been very helpful several times.

This car has never given us any trouble, is great on the highway and is an economical car to drive and own. I use a synthetic motor oil and it really has help overall MPG. Good looking car, even when parked next to the Corvette that it share the house with. Dealership is a true 5-star. They have always been more than helpful with any questions or concerns.

Not as good as I expected

This one was from fleet, I got it after 29,000 miles driven fro about $25k. Well, very fun to drive and no complain about the performance and comfortablness, plus a good image. Problems started with loose glass part on left-front side, service engine signal turns on for no particular reason, and a recall so for firing re-programming. Though still under warranty, but, would be long. I have to drive as less as possible to control the milage under 40,000. The Cady Could be better than what I have gotten.
