2010 Cadillac SRX Reviews

I purchased this vehicle used from a private owner and I've had to change both front entire strut assemblies,both front cv axles, both front out tire rods, both front lower control arms, both racker steering pins, had a tune up, repair air condition hose, trans work, new rear brake pads, and etc yet my check engine light is still on and my abs light is still on, stability trak light on and in the winter time here in Chicago it has me really fearful to drive because it slides across the highway in just slightly snowy weather. I will never purchase or recommend a Cadillac ever. Repairs for simple things are very expensive. Now I'm being told my catalyic converters both need changing. Can't wait to be rid of this costly piece of junk.

I own a 2010 Cadillac SRX. I love love this car. I was lucky enough to buy it with ALL the bells and whistles!!! From seat warmer to the panoramic sunroof. It's all electric, tinted windows. Leather seats, Bose speakers (front an back) it has anything and everything you would ever need. It drives like a dream. The power is unbelievable, 0-60 in 10 secs. Or less. You don't even know the engine is on it's so quiet. The gas mileage is awesome, weather your driving city or freeway. In june, of this year (2018) myself, my husband and my 30yr old son went on vacation for 2 weeks. We started the drive in San Diego CA. And drove to Washington State. It was the best drive I have ever experienced. All 3 of us fought every time we got in the car about who was going to drive!!!! I would happily by this car all over again, and constantly sing its praises to friends, family and people who ask about my car.

Have had no major issues, just regular maintenance at 110,000 miles we bought it used with 90,000 miles have only needed to change batteries bought a new set of tires and replaced the windshield from sand pitting. I wish it had more power and it feels like a regular SUV rather than a Cadillac, Does not have the ride of sai a Cadillac sedan. We do enjoy the features expected in a Cadillac such as heated and cooled seats the navigation and ample storage.

It is a good car for the first 5 years, but after that you can expect the engine light to be on forever, like most General Motors cars. It is been in the shop a couple of times, and it does not work as well as it used to. Three of the biggest problems right now are the oil, tire pressure, and the cruise control. The cruise control only works have the time. Sometimes, it’ll shut off randomly while I am driving. I think there’s something wrong with the tire pressure gauges in the wheels. No matter how much air I fill it with, the gauge always says it is only at 26 psi. I know this is not the case, because I manually checked the tires with a handheld pressure gauge. Lastly, the oil in the car burns too fast.

Overall the vehicle has been pretty reliable. We have had no major problems with it. The biggest issue we have had is that we have had to replace the alternator several times. The vehicle handles well, is all wheel drive makes it nice in the winter. Turn radius is not as good as I would like. It has a lot of nice options, including heated leather seats, Bose speakers, 3rd row seating and a very large moonroof. Overall has been one of my favorite vehicles outside of the alternator issue.

The comfort of the Cadillac is top notch. It has all of the features you could want and more. It drives really smooth, even on the roughest of roads. The DVD system is amazing for my 3 year old, it is made road trips so much better. I have had a issue with the turbo, my mechanic states it is a known issue in this model. Apparently they use cheaper parts in the model of Cadillac. This brings me to another point, parts (even though they are made cheap) are so expensive. We are having to replace the struts and it is almost $2,000. I love the luxury of my car but, I am not for sure if we will purchase this model again.

It runs smooth but not if you leave it sitting for a couple of days. The Bluetooth feature comes in handy. The manual could have been a lot clearer or helpful on how to operate the TV's in the back. We needed to hire a professional to help me get the TV's in the back running for the kids. The TV's installed in the back makes this vehicle great for road trips. The seats in the back are easy to lay flat and pull back up again for large purchases. The trunk space is great makes everyday runs to the store very easy. The biggest bother with this vehicle is how the sensors keep going bad.

The stx has had problems from the beginning, 1st after the car sat overnight the next morning the battery would be dead, Cadillac dealer would bring another battery then it would start for about 3 months then again the battery would be dead, I have had it to the dealer and they still to this day find the problem why this was happening. The next problem was the sunroof leaked which the dealer did repair, the sensor on the hatch went out as I was putting groceries into my car if I had it gotten out of the way it would have crushed me to death, the dealer replaced the sensor. It has never had a smooth ride, before buying the Cadillac I owned a GMC Envoy and it ride 10 times smoother than the caddy. The running light on passenger side went out, it is something to go with a computer chip & will cost $1, 400. 00 to repair, now the timing chains need replacing at $5000. 00. It is not worth putting that much money into, I am going to drive it until the engine dies from the timing chains. It is been a piece of junk from the start!! I would never buy another caddy, gm buys from the cheapest supplier and there quality has gone down the tubes!! They need to go back to making a good product and be loyal to their customers. They want customers to buy their products but they do not want to stand behind there products like in day gone buy!! Google the Cadillac and you will read about all the problems, I would advise not buying one unless you want problems!

Purchased the car a little over 3 years ago with 40,000 miles. Since then, I have put well over 10,000 in repairs. Some of the things replaced have been ball joints, wheel bearings, alternator, and water pump. I am sure there is more to this list but cannot think of them off the top of my head. Not only this, but have had a ongoing problem with the check engine light coming on and off since the 50,000 mile mark. In addition to the check engine light coming on, the check stabilitrak and engine power reduced comes on at the same time. Now, being in the state of VT with the new law stating you cannot get your car inspected with the check engine light on, I am force to put another 2,000 in it this year in hopes to find a remedy for this situation. I have no choice but to get it fixed because I still owe too much money on the car to trade it in. It is also extremely expensive to fix, simply because of the brand of the car. I will say that the car is extremely comfortable to ride in and the features were good for the year of the car (heated seats, adjustable petals, ect). However, that is the only two good things I can say about the car.

Sensor issues. I had to replace 3 sensors since I bought it in 2014. I had to replace 3 wheel bearings on it along with the battery not long after I purchased certified pre owned. The amplifier just went out in it, and I've had to replace other parts to it as well here and there. I had to replace the headlights on it which cost around $1100. These are all known issues that Cadillac knows about but won't help in replacing. After researching my car issues, I found out that there are several other people that have had the same issues out of their SRX's.

2010 Cadillac SRX When I first sat in this car before buying it, my mind was blown. The inside of this car had everything that I needed/wanted. Leather seats, heated seats, panoramic sunroof, in dash nav and gps, satellite radio, and plenty of legroom. My favorite part was the push to start and built in remote starter since it was the beginning of winter in NH. This car is great in the snow and rides so smooth. I have 3 little boys who can sit side-by-side across the back seat. The only 1 con to this car is that it is always in AWD, so your mpg takes a little hurting. But if anyone is ever searching for a reliable mid size SUV then I would highly recommend this car. I still own it and will eventually upgrade to a newer cadillac SUV in the near future.

I like the way the car handles and drives. There is enough room for passengers to be comfortable. The brake and accelerator pedal are adjustable. I love the heated seats. The panoramic sunroof is an awesome feature. There are huge blind spots due t the frame around the windshield. I have purchased blind spot mirrors for the side view mirrors. This has helped with the side view blind spots. The major problem that has occurred is a need to replace wheel bearings often in the last 2 years. There is a defect in the headlights that causes condensation on the inside. Repairs are expensive.

My Cadillac srx is my favorite car yet. I had a Nissan Altima then had kids and decided it was time to get a mommy car. I wasn't interested in a van or a big vehicle. Me being short myself. This is the perfect size! Bigger than a car but not too big. It is perfect. It makes me feel safe. I have so much more room, the trunk comes up and there's a lot of room. It is a push to start which is very easy. The remote also has where you can start it from inside with the remote. The car also includes a backup camera and will beep. If too close. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a small SUV. It is the best!

The Cadillac srx 2010 has been the most reliable car ever since 2010 although parts are a bit pricey to acquire they are se to last another few years. The backward camera seems of higher quality than newer car models. The only problem with my car is that the gas indicator does not work but it is pretty easy to track when the car needs fuel. The car is pretty comfortable the seats can be heated in the winter and are of leather so it can be pretty hot in the summer. Overall this is a great car that has pretty much all the space I need and reliability I can get.
