I purchased a used 2013 Cadillac XTS with 90k in mint condition and have now owned long enough to put 30k additional miles on it with Zero problems other than needing a battery once which by the way if going bad will cause all sorts of electrical gremlins so don't be worried because a simple new battery and everything is perfect again love my car and that's comparing to my previous car a Lexus then before that I had a Mercedes so Cadillac your doing something right to impress me

AMERICAN LUXURY

After purchasing Toyotas for years we decided to buy American. We are very pleased with the luxury of the XTS. It is by far the most comfortable vehicle we have ever owned. This is a great car for "empty nesters" and receives plenty of compliments wherever we take it. We did not by the XTS for performance and although it does not have the horsepower to launch at intersections, I am pleasantly surprised at how well the XTS corners and steers. This introductory model had a couple recalls when we first bought it as I would expect any new model would have. Since then, the XTS has been wonderful. The four year bumper to bumper warranty is awesome. If you are in your middle age years and want to buy American then this vehicle is the one to buy. The CUE system took some time to get use to since I was used to knobs and buttons on all my previous cars. The voice recognition software works well for a truly hands free entertainment control. Load up your SD disk and insert it into the slot and you have all the music you ever need for a road trip. The best feature of all the electronic marvels this car has is the back up camera with motion prediction. This is awesome in parallel parking. Just put it in reverse, turn the steering wheel to line up your path and back into your spot. If you want American luxury at its best, convenience, and reliability (especially with the warranty) this is the car to purchase.

9 trips back to the dealer since July. The cue system seams to have problems that GM doesn't have fixes for, they should have worked all the gremlins out of the system before releasing this car.

Gas nozzle clicks off continuously

I have two Cadillac's a 2010 SRX cap gas tank and a 2013 XTS a cap less design and yet I can't fill them both up at the same gas station because the nozzle repeatedly clicks off. After I contacted the dealer, and GM TAC I was told that it's operating as designed. Dealer and GM smart guys say it's the station pump pressure and the vapor bellows on the nozzle and go to other gas stations .. real nice solution! Update: It's a nozzles issue. When I go to my local station (tested with the owner present) we noticed that two different pump nozzles resulted in two different results. A nozzle without the black rubber boot ... it clicked off .. a nozzle with the boot .. filled up fine ... since then all the nozzles have been changed at this station.... a learning experience for us both. I try to fill up only at my local station now, but those times when I have to use another and the boots not there .. it clicks off repeatedly. I try to avoid those odd named gas stations .. I use Shell gas.
