Vehicle comfort of the Cadillac cts for driving and performance.

Great performance, reliable, and very comfortable with advanced seating to adjust to my size. The vehicle is great on performance and gas for the best mileage and performance of the engine. The comfort of the vehicle is great for me and my family to sit and have a great drive wherever we go for a trip and see the sights.

Good buy/lease. I would recommend it!

I have not had any problems with my new Cadillac cts. I do not drive to work so it is only driven for pleasure and/or trips. I get good gas mileage and I love all the safety features with this car. I especially love the car shuts the engine off while sitting at a light and then starts up again when you take the foot off the brake.

Karen H

Very comfortable upscale sedan.

I haven't really had any problems with the vehicle. I did have some confusion with how to operate the controls properly. My back tire is often low but the warning on dash lets me know. I have had good performance with the car - great pickup! It has been very reliable. I haven't had any issues. It is very comfortable. I have a bad back and it fits it well. I love my heated steering wheel and heated and air seats!!

Comfort in style - looking good while feeling good.

I have had my vehicle for over a year and have only one problem. The air in one of my tires is low often and puts the warning light on. It has been reliable good in snow and ice. I love the heated and cooling seats and the heated steering wheel. It is very comfortable as I have a bad back.

A happy car enthusiastic and car lover.

I am a car enthusiastic. I love to collect car. I love my car. It is very unique, innovative and luxurious to me. It is all modern features and technologies. I have been using my current car for about two years, but haven't found anything major problem with my car. It is still running smoothly without any issue. It is reliable and trustworthy to me. Love to drive the car. Mileage is also good.

It is a good car, handles well.

I love everything about my car, the color, the power, all the extra options and most of all, the shape of the headlights.

Tommy H

The affordability is a good investment,

The power and performance are real good. The fuel is a boost also, 24-26 mpg. The sound system is a great element. Only issues is with the sunroof,got to wedge a piece of paper in to stop the noise. The overall handling of the car is great. It lets you know when you to close.

NOT THE COMPANY IT USED TO BE

I have owned several Cadillacs but after my experience with Cadillac service at the manufacturing level and dealership level for 2018 CTS , I would NOT recommend purchasing Cadillac. For 1 1/2 years I have taken vehicle at least 5 times because of radio malfunction, drooping programmed stations or greying out stations, dropping phone calls, screen blanking out, programming changing so phone radio navigation interchanges without prompting, sometimes I have to pull over and turn off car and turn on to get the system to work again. Cadillac has done nothing but issue bulletins that the dealership reads to me saying they are working on a fix or they say it is a Sirius Satellite issue . They refuse to give a new radio. Dealer acknowledges that it is a problem that has occurred in a limited number of vehicles and that it is a problem. Cadillac is not the company that it used to be.

Samantha G

Amazing features and highly reliable and safe.

Amazing performance plus great comfort and quality with leisure. The features are very unique and quite amazing. This car is very reliable and I would totally recommend it to anyone. The driving is very smooth and safe plus with great features and performance. It's a total package.

Value and style with exceptional quality.

Always loved Cadillacs, the smooth drive the well designed aesthetics and the driving experience. The car needs very little maintenance and Cadillac service is always top of the line reliable. Even though the car is expensive it is worth the money. Car has great value and style.

Pros from Owners

Dena P.

It has keyless entry. Moonroof. Great digital dashboard features. Heated seats. Electric adjustable seats. Nice compartment to keep sunglass. Adjustable steering wheel. Feature to adjust height of driver seat. Radio with Sirius feature if you desired. Automatic windows. Features to let you know when maintenance is due on dashboard.

Cons from Owners

Dena P.

Moon roof sticks. Radio comes on randomly. Not enough leg room for back seat passengers. Back seat area is cramped. There is not too much that is wrong with the car. The cup holders are in the back seat too.
