  • Life with our XTS Cadillac is a beautiful thing. - 2016 Cadillac XTS

    Look for what you get for the money. The XTS has a elegant appearance, it is large and comfortable thru out. Performance is every good, just drive one and note the fine brakes, steering and ride. The warranty is excellent and Cadillac dealers are not difficult to fined. If you cant fined a Cadillac service center there are GM dealerships everywhere. This car has a lot to love. Why buy a German car that cost twice as much?

    This car is the best car that I have owned. The car rides quietly, runs great and looks great. Did I say that it produced in North America not Asia. Service just down the road with plenty of GM dealers to take care of every need. The quality of the car for the cost is excellent you will not be disappointed with the xts take a look. Ive had the car for one year and it had proven to be excellent on the road in upstate New Yorks winter wonderland. With snows on all four wheels it will go through almost any snowy conditions.

    A steep learning curve is needed to understand all the functions and capability this car offers. Once mastered it is a beautiful car that has a lot to please.

  • Unreliable vehicle - 2016 Cadillac XTS

    I bought this gorgeous, classy, luxurious and very expensive 2016 Cadillac Platinum top of the line Caddy. After five months and 6000 miles it is sitting in my garage unused waiting to be traded in at a major loss. Serious maintenance problems include a complete loss of power overnight while sitting in the garage. Roadside service had problems starting it with his power pack and finally had to jump start it with an old personal truck that he used. The dealer service department could not find a fault after keeping the car overnight to trace the battery drain. A few days later while on a local drive, the transmission failed! It would not move forward or reverse. The beautiful car sat on the side of the road until road service showed up to tow it to the dealership. The dealer determined parts were needed to repair it and it took almost a week to get it repaired. The transmission is now shifting rough but dealer test shows no fault. Being an elderly owner, I have lost all confidence in the vehicle and do not dare drive it on long trips. I am now using my wifes reliable Honda CRV for long trips. Very embarrassing to tell friends, family and neighbors why this beautiful vehicle sits in the garage unused. Buyers must heed the below average consumer reliability ratings for Cadillac. Beware.

    There were limited sources for the Premium model when I was ready to buy, there were lots of Luxurys available however the bells and whistles of the Premium kept it my choice to buy.

  • XTS Lost in translation - 2016 Cadillac XTS

    So, rented this Caddy over thanksgiving weekend (no other cars available on elite aisle). Car rental treated like it was a Bentley, its not. Ok, good looks, nice interior. It ends there. This unit had 416 miles upon pickup, I put 2000 additional miles on it. Fuel mpg 23 or better, engine performance, not. The engine was disconnected as was transmission,when forced to work it would, multiple times non responsive at worst times, stutter, no response dangerous. CUE IS A NIGHTMARE! All technology in this car is a nightmare. even power seats are stupid, memory settings require you to hold the button until preferences are restored. Example, you have a seat exit programed, it runs, now you want the seat and etall back to your programmed settings, hold the #1 button for 30 seconds. HORRID. Interior nice finishes, no storage, no outlets, stupid powered dash panel to hide a 90s flip phone with an inaccessible USB jack. WOW. Im gonna stop here this car sucks.

  • Slightly used XTS Platium, but new to me. - 2016 Cadillac XTS

    There is more headroom than the new CT6, especially in the rear. This car should be one foot longer for more rear seat leg room, bigger rear doors and more trunk storage. Also add 5 gallons to the gas tank for fewer fill-ups.

  • Problems with the GM 6 speed transmissions - 2016 Cadillac XTS
    By -

    Buyers should be aware that Cadillac has problems with the transmissions. I read online that other owners have had problems after 100,000 miles. Mine is already hard shifting! Dealer claims nothing is wrong. Took it to a two third party transmission shops and both said that they are aware of transmission problems with the GM 6 speed transmissions. Buyer beware.

  • Feel Young Again Drive a Cadillac XTS - 2016 Cadillac XTS
    By -

    Love my car. I am enjoying the ride, the music, talking on the phone, the seat adjustments are perfect, the backup camera is best thing ever, easy to park, the radio super, car locks excellent, Only negative seats to narrow and not plush enough.

  • Wonderful car - 2016 Cadillac XTS
    By -

    This is a very well designed luxury car that easily beats those offered by Mercedes and BMW. We love the 6 cylinder engine and regular tires with a spare. It runs on regular gas unlike the small turbo engines. We definitely wanted to avoid the runflat tires which are so expensive and problematic. The XTS was the best car for us with the most interior room for 4 adults of any luxury car of this size. Nice going Cadillac!
