Worst Car I have ever owned!

By Roger Lake written on 03-19-2018

Ok we will start with the PRO: Looks and cargo space. That?s all. Now the Con: First off I want to start off by saying I own a car dealership and have personally owned every type of vehicle their is. This truck is the worst vehicle by far that I have ever owned. The engine burns oil at 11k miles. Brought it in to the GM dealer and they hand me a paper stating that it?s acceptable to burn up too a quart of oil between oil changes. 92,000 dollar vehicle and Iam adding oil between oil changes? The transmission shifts horrible and slams into gear every day I pull out of my garage. Going up hills the truck loses power and seems to not know what geat to go into. Also my wife and I smell coolant in the car when you first turn on the ac as if the heater core is leaking. We paid extra for power running boards and they Stick. Truck rides ruff and clunky. It?s a real shame because we sell used Cadillacs on our lot and the older ones were much better. I feel the quality of a Hyundai or Kia far exceeds the quality of this truck. I have never went on and reviewed a car or truck in my life as all vehicles have their issues but this truck has so many problems that even though it?s so pretty this truck makes me so angry and Iam so laid back. I don?t care how much money you have this truck will be your worst financial decision you have ever made in your life if you buy it. No redeemable features other then size and beauty. I had to go jump start this truck the third day of owing it because the battery was no good. And I remind you we bought it brand new with no miles. I don?t have time to go to the dealer every week because of all the problems. We can?t even drive the truck we?re paying so much money to have. The dealer wants to give us a Chevy Cruze as a loaner car every time. We bought this truck because we have a big family. I end up putting a dealer plate on a Honda Pilot and have my wife drive that. So basically buy a Honda Pilot to drive when your Cadillac is broken down and in the shop every week. If I could give this review negative stars I would. Nothing in my life has disappointment more then this vehicle. Buy German or Japanese the quality it much better.

got my caddy finally and satisfied with the dealer. comfort to drive. for spring break, fuel consumption is good below average peers(V4 V8 shifting).

Worst Purchase we have ever made!

By Roger Lake written on 05-22-2018

Where do I start? Engine is consuming oil at 20k. The transmission shifts hard from first too second. My wife smells coolant from the vents. The power running boards don't always go up. The rear DVD in the third row doesn't work. Dealer claims everything is fine. I have to add oil between oil changes on my 90,000 dollar Cadillac. These cars are junk. I told my wife this but she loves the space the car has. I don't recommend these vehicles. Don't waste your hard earned money on this. Buy an Infiniti or a Lexus.

Much better than 2010 platinum model

Everything is better especially the ride. Does not have the throaty exhaust but that makes it more like a car.
