What a lemon

Bought a used 2010 DTS, 74k miles on it. Everything breaks after 10 years. Even at low miles, lots of oil leaks, codes that cannot be shut off. Every time you run over a pebble the check engine light comes on. Total garbage car.

From Avalon To DTS

I have now had my DTS for 2 years (23,000MI). I think I have experience enough now to say, having owned a 09 Avalon previously....there is no comparasion. The Avalon is far superior. The gentlemen that said there is no comparasion has apparently not driven the Avalon. My DTS started with front wheel balancing problems. After ordering 2 sets for me it still feels that I'm driving it unbalanced. And it took several attempts to get them to do that. Fit and finish both interior and exterior are sub-par. Road and wind noise is pronounced and the engine noise is extremely annoying. The only reason I can see why anyone would buy one is the "name". That was my reason..mistake.

Best car I ever owned! I’ve had several Cadillacs, and this was tops. Wish they still made the DTS. Just trade for 2016 XTS Platinum. Hoping for similar experience! Please add more rear leg room!

I feel like I am driving a luxury car and not a truck.

I just returned from a trip to Long Island,N.Y. The car was a dream to drive and the air conditioned seats made the ride in ninety degree temp a real pleasure.The radar to keep you alert to the fact that you are in the center of the lane is also a good feature. Onstar GPS makes getting to your destination an absolute pleasure. The ride with magna traction shocks is as great as it is on my Corvette.
