Escalade hype: not as comfortable as expected, but features outweigh issues.
Has well-known transmission issues that cause the car to lag and had to pay out of pocket for a new transmission. Also does not ride as smoothly as you would expect for a luxury brand. I do love all the features though, from rain sensors and adjustable brake pedal to cooled seats.

It is worth the money for how it drives.
Love the ride, and the amenities. I wish it could tow more weight. I wish the tvs' had separate blu ray players.

It is a 2016 black escalade. It is a luxury vehicle. It comes with a GPS.
My vehicle runs well. The miles are good. No work needs to be done to my vehicle. I keep it in good condition. I make sure the maintenance is kept up every six months. It holds my trailer as well as my boat when I am feeling adventurous. Supports my bike when I am ready to hit the trails.

Back massagers are a must. Sleek design too.
Best car I have ever owned. The comfort is unbelievable. Normally long trips in a car bother my hips and back. Not in this ride. It even comes with settings for back massage for driver and front passenger! Previously I had a love for ford comfort, but Cadillac has far surpassed that expectation.

I cannot remember all of the details.
I love this SUV. It is very comfortable and spacious. I do not think I'll be purchasing another car anytime soon. It is great for traveling long distance. It is a little ehh on gas but nothing I cannot handle. Great “mom” car and perfect for big families.

Sleek, beautiful Cadillac Escalade
I love my Cadillac Escalade. It's big and roomy for my family of four but not too Big. Easy to park with use of cameras. I love all the extras like Wi-Fi, cameras, DVD player, heated seats, cooling seats, cell charging console, plenty of charging stations, captain's seats, sunroof. The sleek look of the vehicle is very appealing and looks nice on the road.

Cadillac escalade- modern and clean car.
The car has a lot of good features. It has a 360 camera with is really nice. It drives very smoothly, and it has a lot of room. It has 7 seats which is very nice, and it is very spacious. I also love the heated steering wheel. The look of the car is very clean and modern.

I like the interior space and styling. However it get very poor gas mileage. It is also difficult to change the oil.

Easy Driver w/ Power when needed
This is my second Escalade, and by far this is the most impressed I have been with any of them. This truck handles like a dream, such a smooth ride, I am looking forward to taking some long distance drives to tour the country.... Something I haven't done in years. And.. The Power!!! They have fine tuned this corvette engine to react quicker than the previous years! I love the interior design and the heads up display and the dashboard cluster is easy to navigate. And the smart assist for cruise control, makes driving easier...

The lane detection and correction.
There was a known transmission issue fixed under warranty. The attention to detail on running lights are great. I love the full swing open doors, they make it easier for in and out access. It is difficult to install a car seat. The latch is at the bottom of the back of the seat, it is much easier on other vehicles that have a latch in the middle of the seat.

In summary escalade cadillac’s is an amazing care overall with multiple feature.
The escalade Cadillac is an amazing car overall and has amazing features in every area of the car. It has an amazing air cooling system that gets to all areas of the car and reliable. It also has good sound system, the speakers are powerful and clear. The car is full of space where you can put multiple things and have space left over, the car is fast and brakes very well.

It is a true class act of a vehicle, it turns heads when you drive by.
I do not think it has the smoothest ride due to the short wheel base. However, it has amazing features and the noise cancellation for outside noise is great. We love the versatility and electric features to make life easier. It does everything we want it to do!

Cadillac Escalade is worth every penny.

Great vehicle! I would recommend!
I have had no problems. It is extremely reliable. The ride is comfortable. The only repairs I have made are from wear and tear from everyday driving to work and to run errands and to visit family and friends. The radio and all that is top notch. I would definitely recommended this vehicle.
Phyllis O
on November 19, 2020
It is also very durable and reliable.
I love my Cadillac because of the smooth ride as well as the feel of safety while driving. It is roomy and luxurious. On the inside. It makes road trips so comfy. The gas is a little pricey but well worth the cost for such a nice ride. No upkeep yet other than oil change and regular maintenance required.

Cadillac escalade, the best car.
The car is comfortable and easy to drive. I love having the touch screen radio, it lets my friends easily use the radio. The gas mileage is great. The seats are easily adjustable and comfortable to sit. My car is cherry red and I get compliments all the time. I am happy and feel honored to own this car. The cruise control feature is amazing. I am often driving 200-400 miles away from home and out on the interstate, I turn it on.
Allison M

Great family car - luxury and practical.
My escalade is very reliable. I haven't had many problems with it at all. I love the bench seat in the second row and the removable third row. I have had to replace the tires a few times. I love the little luxuries of heated and cooled seats, steering wheel etc. My kids enjoy the TV.
Preston A
on October 21, 2020
In all it's a great car that's why I am getting to same car just newer year.

White grayish color 3 seat rows 7 seats nice comfy.
Nothing wrong with it tires are really good and durable it hasn't broke down had for a year still haven't had to replace tires or anything. Couldn't ask for more if anything needed fixing I would know immediately when I need an oil change this orange oil button pops up so I have a few days before having to change it.
Crystal K

Love the comfort of my car, easy to clean up and reliable.
Super comfortable, have had a few window leak, and needs a guard in back so all the grooves do not fall out when opening truck. We do have a extended warranty so that is been nice knowing if something goes wrong they will fix it. Even as needing new fab keys are included in warranty.
Sarah L
on October 5, 2020
The best thing about my vehicle is the way it drives.
The only problem that I have with my vehicle is the color of it. Other than that I do not have any other issues with it and I love everything about it. The seats are incredibly nice and feel so comfortable that I do not even mind falling asleep on them.
Kayla B

Cadillac's are a good buy the interior is great for a family.
The seats are very nice comfortable and there are enough seats for my family it is very handy when going to work a dance recital soccer game etc. One problem is that the seat belt clip can get stuck in the seat if you have very rowdy kids. It is good for long trips the color is astonishing they have the best seat adjustment for the driver and all around a good buy.
stevie S
on September 29, 2020
I cannot say enough about the space of the third row.
Stays cleaner with materials used. Third row really allows for more storage and space. We can fit 3 toddlers with car seats and large dog on most days. Long road trips comfy with huge third row. Drives smoothly. Cadillac service is excellent and timely. Lots of automatic buttons for speed and convenience.
Jess S

Riding in luxury, one of the best vehicles to buy.
Love this car. Great ride and has all the bells and whistles! Love the longer version for hauling kids and pets to the cabin and back. The heated and air conditioned seats are a must in MN due to our extreme climate. The technology is top notch, with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and on star.
Mario F

My vehicle is my life. When people see my car they know what time it is.
I have had this car for about 3 years now and I have had no problems with it at all, I make my oil changes like I am suppose to and keep it maintained. Only thing I ever had problems with was my air it was cooling cold enough but after I fixed that I have had no issues with my car.

My vehicle is extremely gas consuming and it takes about 22 gallons to fill up
I love how spacious it is, as well as comfortable. I like the overall look of it, and like all the luxurious finishes that are included with it. I don't like all the recalls that have been made but otherwise, I'm extremely satisfied.
Mark M
on August 4, 2020
The finest SUV made in America today.
I do not have any problems with this vehicle except that I have found it is just a little too big for me. I'd recommend it to anyone who needs a big SUV. Everything is top notch. The interior is luxurious and the technology is beyond cutting edge. Cadillac is back in it is stride.

Handles amazing in all types of weather.
This truck has everything, all options that you could ever want and more. Handles amazing in all types of weather, especially on icy roads. I never had any problems with it. Comfort level is a 10. I always feel safe and secure traveling in this truck.
Samira B

In all honesty it is up to you weather you like the car or not.
You have to love your car, I love it I am comfortable with my own. It was my first baby. The performance is great. I can sit here and talk about it, but it is up to you if you like it as well everyone has different taste. I do have some problems but that is very car, I have to fix my brakes n get new tired during the winter.
Laurel G
on June 8, 2020
It is wide and it may take some people time to adjust for that. I don't have a issue with it. Also, the second row captains chairs don't slide forward to adjust for taller people sitting in the back row.
I love the size, I have the extended version and am able to transport kids with lots of area for sports gear or groceries. IT rides like a sedan and handles really well. I wish the second row captains chairs could slide forward to make room for taller people in the back row.

Caddy review for 2016 escalade.
Performance is great fun to drive. So much space in the car for my friends to hop in so we can ride around. Girls love the car too as it is blacked out to the max. Sounds great when stepping on the gas, and the sound system is crystal clear when listening to various types of music.
Kristina S
on May 9, 2020
Luxury family ride with comfort, convenience and class.
Very comfortable riding vehicle. Platinum edition has all the bells and whistles. Lots of room in vehicle and great for transporting family and gear. Seats go down easily. Safety features of the car are great. Vehicle will notify you when changing lanes and car coming. Cameras very clear in car and make backing up easy. Downside is size of vehicle quite big and sometimes hard to park. Electronics also seem to have issues with sensors getting out of whack.
Rebecca B
on May 2, 2020
Sturdy and easy to maintain.
My vehicle is very sturdy, and it is easier to maintain than all the other cars I have had in the past. I have not had any issues with the engine, air conditioning, or any other feature. As long as you get your oil changed routinely, you should be fine.
Alissa T

My vehicle is like a tank. It is super strong and powerful and I feel strong.
I have a 2016 Cadillac escalade that I bought cash from a family friend! Only has 65,000 miles and it is a very good and reliable car! It is also really good on gas! $20 will last me a week and a half! Also the tires are great and they are very durable and good on the highway especially when it is raining!
Annette N

Fun family suv for traveling.
I love my Escalade. It fits six people comfortably and/ or 2 people four car seats. The kids love the entertainment package. The GPS isn't as reliable as maps on my cell phone so that is a little irritating. The leather is wonderful and the heated seats are the best in cold months. The sound system is Bose and we love it a lot. We travel with the family all the time and love the room in this suv. This is my second Escalade and third Cadillac to own. We will continue to upgrade to another Cadillac once it's time.
Mary Ann K

The car is safe and reliable. It is a big car feel but it does not feel like it.
Love the room and how it drives. It is a safe car to transport kids and family members. It is also great for long distances.
Tara S
on January 29, 2020
It has a lot of room inside. It's very spacious. If you have children it has enough room for them to be together but also to separate them if arguing.
I love how much room it has. I love the third row seat I've got children. It's white in color which is nice until it starts to get d***y it's more noticeable. It's kinda hard on gas but not too too bad.
Mckenna F
on January 29, 2020
It has a lot of room! But it sometimes can feel like driving a bus!.
I really like the interior but I wish it had a Bluetooth wireless connection so I could play music in my car. It does, however, have a aux plug in which is better than nothing. I also love the heated seats it is best during winter time.

The seats have their own hot or cold seat and back of seat fans! My favorite.
It is super easy to drive. Had back up beeper and the interior is gorgeous leather. It's great on gas and fits 6 men easily! We love the foot tap to open the trunk which has a lot of room! We also very easily pulled out 25 foot RV 2 hours away and you couldn't even notice it.
Knowledge C

The interior is a white velvet, a back view camera to detect anything in my view.
My car is a premium luxury Cadillac escalade. I purchased my vehicle in 2016 at Cadillac dealership. My car find like a champ has yet to fail me! It has great tires, GPS navigations, with mimi screens attached to the seats for road trips. It can carry a camp trailer.

Ford escalade.That's my car.
It works great. There are no problems. It performs great. It's got good reliability. It's comfortable and it has good features. I don't know what else to write. I've never had a problem with it. The only thing is it's a little small. Other than that it's great.

My spacious yet classy ride
My vehicle is fully loaded it comfortable and plush like myself. I love taking trips to the beach with the kids as well as having a girls night out on the town. Its spacious and classy. I love the heated seats and extra foot step to step up in and hop down out of with ease.

My luxurious awesome Cadillac Escalade
No problems I love my ride! Couldn't ask for a better vehicle. It's for sure luxury and nice. It has backup camera. It has all wheel drive. It is leather interior. It has rims and they chrome. It has a jam up stereo system inside that the factory base sounds like you put your own souped up system in it

The Comfortability and space, the color of the seats
I like the size of the car, it's comfortable and elegant. I would like to have more space in the trunk when all the 7 passengers are seating

Great SUV love it and getting the same SUV but newer model.
I do love the SUV but what I really find that I don't like about my SUV is that when you go for a tune up on the engine I seem to notice that the car runs funny like it needs a tune up and just had one it last for a few hours and the it stops I noticed this a few times when I had a tune up no one could give me a answer a of why this was happening love the SUV a lots of room.

LEELA J
on June 28, 2019
I love it but there are tweaks to be made after purchasing, it slides in the rain when pulling out from a stoplight.
I dislike the stereo system, only one cd player, I dislike that there's a long delay when you use the auxiliary cord to connect your phone or when you use bluetooth your conversation gets lost in transition and the volumes as well you have to turn it all the way up. Also, the rear seats are heated but no ventilation. I like that it's classy
Sunilda A
on May 27, 2019
My vehicle is a gas guzzler, it needs about twenty two gallons to be completely filled. It also burns gas extremely quickly which can become very expensive
I love the space that my vehicle is able to provide. I also, love how luxurious and elegant it is. Lastly, I love the headlights which allow me to see at night without any difficulties.
Audrey B
on April 12, 2019
This vehicle in black looks s**y.
The seats are very comfortable and it didn't come with the annoying car smell. I like the sleek design and how the seats and shaped. The only thing I dislike is the rear view mirror. It fits all my friends and we like to go on night drives. It also looks pretty cool so it makes me look rich.

Cadillac is the best! Super comfy for large families.
So far I have not experienced any factory issues or recalls. This car is equipped to drive several road conditions and is very spacious and comfy for large families. Every seat has setting to ensure comfort and there are two very large rows in the back.

FANTASTIC, SPACIOUS, LUXURIOUS, SUV... BUT BEWARE-- EXPENSIVE ELECTRONIC REPAIRS!
My biggest complaint about my car pertains to the electronics that control a majority of the features and functions of the car. I wish this wasn't something that was SO expensive to fix...it's INSANE! Especially since I feel there are issues with the electronics often. Also, the parking assist goes crazy when there is a small speck of dirt or a dead bug on one of the sensors in the front of the car. Don't get me started on this issue when it rains! The car just makes alarming beeping noises throughout your entire commute (unless you turn parking assist off).
Kara P

Cadillac escalade: best vehicle owned!
I absolutely love this vehicle. There are so many features that I am still finding out. I love having the automatic dimming headlight, heated/air-conditioned seat and the sound system. It drives beautifully and is easy to handle. The Bose speakers are incredible. There has not been a song that does not sound good.
Brian E
on March 6, 2019
Smooth ride and safe family vehicle.
Overall, good car with minimal issues. The leather interior has begun cracking and the gas mileage is not the best. I have had several issues with the windshield wipers and have had to have the brakes replaced twice since buying the car 3 years ago. The car drives very smooth for a larger vehicle and seats 6 or more people comfortably with plenty of trunk space for trips/luggage, etc. The sun has caused the dashboard to have several small cracks. So far have not had to have any major work done on the vehicle besides brake and issue with the engine hose.
Early M

Other should know that these Cadillacs are worth the money. The luxury that you get for the money that you have spent is worth every dime.
I love my vehicle. I know that I spent a lot of money on it however It's worth every dime. I like that it's flashy I like that it's luxurious I like all the features that's on it. I did get it in Black however and I wished I wouldn't have done that. That's the only thing I dislike about my vehicle.

Luxury Durable Sleek looking SUV
Besides normal maintenance it has been problem/issue free. The great thing about the Escalade is it's fairly good on gas considering its size and it takes 87 octane gas. The car is certainly a luxury SUV but had the ability to handle off road driving. It is extremely durable as I was rear ended by a car and suffered very little damage while the car (also an SUV) that hit was totaled. This is my second Cadillac Escalade and I highly recommend it!
Kelley W
on January 23, 2019
I love my Cadillac escalade! It is the only kind of SUV I want to drive!
I love the way it looks, the way it sounds when it starts up, it is a perfect size and I feel very safe in it. It is large enough to hold 6 people comfortably and 7 tight lol. It has all the bells and whistles you could ever want. It also has lots of storage room.
Stephanie R

The great Cadillac for our family.
This vehicle performs very well. It has been reliable and comfortable for us. It has great features and outperforms other vehicles we have had in the past. We have had good gas mileage with it for a larger vehicle and have been comfortable to ride in. The ride is quiet and it has great tires on it. The entertainment system is fabulous and it has a great GPS as well. Heated leather seats are a bonus.
George L
on December 6, 2018
Cadillac escalade is a great vehicle.
Haven't had any real problems with my vehicle since I bought it. It's very comfortable to sit in and drive and has many great features to it. Gas mileage could be a little better as the money spent on gas every week adds up for me since I have to commute to a different city for work.
Michelle M
on November 11, 2018
I love the back up camera and the on star. It makes me feel safe while traveling
It rides smoothly. I love the side mirrors and it is great on gas. It's very spacious on the inside and my kids love that they can watch movies when we are traveling. The sunroof is great and very clear to see out of. My love for this vehicle has grown as I didn't like when the body changed but it grew on me.
