  • PLEASE PLEASE DONT BUY THIS HEAP - 2005 Cadillac SRX

    Since I only have 700 words, Ill stick to the major issues. ENGINE had to be REPLACED completely at 50,000 miles!! Apparently, it burned up all of its oil and seized. POWER STEERING PUMP had to be REPLACED completely. No explanation given. ABS and TRACTION CONTROL module flooded during heavy rain (its on the bottom of the chasis). Brakes worn out pre-maturely. Rear Windshield washer NEVER worked. Suspension system making strange noises. Overall, in the 10 months that weve owned this heap, it has spent at total of 1 entire month in the shop, at a cost of over $5000 over the warranty. And dont get me started about the terrible Cadillac Dealer Experience. We are going to Hyundai.

    This thing is not worth spit. It has way too many reliability problems mainly with the so called "computer". Ours went out, they replaced it, then the gas gage indicator stopped working so they reset the computer, then the turn signals stopped and they could not duplicate it then we lost oil but the computer never told us and the dealer didnt know why. We traded it in on a Subaru Forester. The trade-in number was a surprise because it is so low! GM should go bankrupt putting out this SRX crap for too many bucks. We had 40K miles on it and in the shop 6 times!

    My 05 Cadillac SRX makes terrible noises that dealerships cant locate. The noises sound like grinding metal.
