This car I'd the biggest pos. 2 engine's 4 transmission, 4 driveshaft, 2 rear diff, 3 transfer case's and the list grows.

GM should be ashamed for not stepping in more, they a? well aware and have been for many years about tge issues. Anyone that has one get rid of it if your thinking about buying on just go an throw what ever money u have in the road this car will bleed you dry. stay away

CTS

  • Automatic transmission
  • 30,992 miles

I just ranted under my dead transfer case. When they pulled the transfer case it was then realized that the transmission needed to be replaced too. This is some bull as the car hasn't really been broken-in yet!!! I personally will NEVER buy another Cadillac as they are not willing to assist with any of the repairs.

CTS Luxery/performance 3.6L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 6,500 miles

Bought the car untitled demo with 6500 miles showing. Nine days later the transmission went. Dealer screwed around with it for 23 days before deciding to replace it. What a croc. Called GM Cadillac to complain and they convinced me right away that they didn't give a hoot. Lot of regrets and no more cadillacs for me. Ever!
