I purchased a car from them ,they were very nice except the car I purchased broke down and I'm stuck paying for a vechile that DOSENT work anymore . It would cost at least 5,000.00 to fix . My guess was they couldn't Waite to get ride of this car . It had gotten in to a accident they told me the owner took out the four wheel drive cause. No need Speacially on Oahu roads . We'll guess what that's a bad excuse . I is senior citizens got ripp off. We kept calling the sale man SHANE OR SEAN and he never called us back . So so frusted paying for a car at 400.00 a month soon to be homeless because of all the stress these people made it sound so good . Be careful for real nice sale people that want to make a commission. I only drive this car less then 50 miles
We have owned our vehicle since August 2015. We have had problems since the first day. Bad airbags, steering wheel had to be replaced 3 times, steering column replaced, torque converter replaced, front camera replaced. The MAIN issue is still not fixed after many many many trips to Service. There is a rough idle at any stop. The engine idle is so rough that the RPM's bar is moving up and down while the car is stopped. At times it feels like the car is going to shut off. Cadillac is not accepting responsibility and is saying this is NORMAL. So...if you like a rough idle in a $100,000 Luxury vehicle go ahead and buy this SUV. Otherwise, I would suggest you go down the road and find a different luxury vehicle.
I have already taken my escalade in to the dealer with significant problems 8 times. For $100K I think that is a bit much! Their overall styling of the escalde is nice. However, when you consider their usability, I have a feeling that they are FAR behind Lexus/Toyota. I will be trading my escalde in within the next week or so for a 2016 Lexus LX570.
The Cadillac Escalade is stylish, fast, comfortable, safe, and it has a nice grumble from the 6.2L V8. But there is a MASSIVE FLAW. It's the CUE system. The CUE system is the worst infotainment system ever. Sometimes it won't even come on when you start the car! It can take up to 6 blocks for it to turn on. The response is slow, voice commands can be frustrating and it glitches a lot. I also don't like the sliding things to turn the volume up or turn the AC on. I like knobs. The headlights can be a little too bright and people think your high beams are on. Also the turn signals on the mirrors can be blinding at night. But the tail lights are INCREDIBLE. It lights up the whole street!! The gas mileage is great for an SUV like this. The DVD player in the rear is great too. I love the power fold down seats. Mountain driving is one of the best places to drive it. It flies up the hills and I love the hill decent braking. Overall I expected more when paying $93000 for this beast. When I Kelley Blue Booked it, it said it was worth $70000 and it only has 8300 miles on it. The Escalade is the perfect family hauler, it is safe, cool, and I don't think there is anything on the road like it. We have had four Escalades and they all are great. The reason we keep buying them is because it saved my brothers life in a car accident and the vehicle was totaled. It took one for the team. So if you were looking at a big burly safe SUV, the Escalade is a great choice.
I don't believe the mainstream reviewers have ever driven this vehicle. I have.
We have gone from excited anticipation to disillusionment. Not what we were expecting for $93,000.
I ordered this 2015 Escalade ESV Premium with every option, sight unseen, based on the great reviews & excellent presentation on Cadillac's website. That was a mistake.
I own a 2008 CTS which I absolutely love to drive, a few faults, but basically a great machine, never had a problem. So when I read that the new SUV was to be partially based on the CTS, along with great reviews, I was on the hook.
Keeping it brief, what's good: styling, performance, handling, ride (especially Sport), finish, sound system, GPS,
