Do the rear seats fold down? If so, how do you fold them down
My 2017 CT6, (put into service 9/2016) was giving me tremors around 40mph. They replaced the torque converter and the fluid and so far, I’ve put 10k since, no problem! I graduated from a 2012 CTS and this is by far the best big car out there..with AWD!❤
I had a 2017 CT6 Platinum.....the number one WORST problem with this car was the transmission. I did all of the TSB updates at my Caddy dealer, but the shifting was the worst I've ever felt. It got to the point where I took it to another dealership and was basically told to...."live with it". GM had an inherited problem with this tranny in a lot of their lineup that year.
That not good business at all
Same problem with my Yukon Denali, they told me to live with it
@@bluntssmoking9362 Sorry to hear you had the same problem as I did. I purchased the car as a certified pre-owned vehicle from a Cadillac dealer out of state in Wisconsin, and had it shipped to my residence in NJ, and took for granted the car was "certified" and in perfect shape. From the first second I drove the car, it felt like I was getting rear ended at 30mph when it would shift from first to second gear along with a extremely loud clunk noise. I bought it in April of 2021 and traded it to a local Caddy dealer in August of 2021. I had it for four months and lost over $10,000.00 after the wholesale trade and shipping/tax costs. I hope you didn't lose too much.
I own one and I did think you were nitpicking a bit. I think the biggest issue by far is the jerky transmission on 16-18’s but even that isn’t a dealbreaker. It’s an overall great car.
Please elaborate on what you mean by jerky transmission in 16 thru 18 models. Are you talking about the start-stop ignition?
I have an '18 CT6 Premium Luxury. First, I'll say it's my third Cadillac and by far one of the best cars I've ever had. Although probably all these could be considered nit-picking, I absolutely agree about the "automatic" power folding mirrors. There's nothing automatic about them as you must press a button to fold them (I know, first world problem) but it's deceptive. The other concerns don't bother me. I will say I too had an issue with the jerky transmission mentioned in the comments, but there is a recall out there where the dealer flushes the transmission and replaces the fluid with another type. I still have the occasional lurch, but it's worlds better considering it was jerky at all times under all conditions. That behavior took almost a year to manifest and about two weeks to smooth out after the recall service. If yours hasn't been flushed, try that. My only other issue is with the Super Cruise. It performs flawlessly, but at least at the time, you pay $5K for it only to learn after three years, you must pay a monthly fee for it to continue to function. Cadillac received so many complaints, they extended the no cost use for another 12 months, but any fee to use a $5K option seems ridiculous. I'm beginning my extended year's use this week. I'll either trade or let it lapse at the end of next year. Super Cruise is great, but not with a monthly fee...unless Cadillac would like to refund the $5K!
I know I'm late to the commenting. I agree with your "cons", but I think the reason you can't roll the windows back up is a safety feature. If something was in the window while remotely rolling it back up, you could break the glass or injure someone ie: a child. Just my opinion. I love the car though. I have a 2018 CT6.
How has the reliability been overall?
I agree with you on the things you dislike. Definetly should be able to let windows back up via remote. Big inconvenience. I also thought they should have made the ambient lighting with color choices and intensity options. I have the 2017 platinum trim level and thought it should also have soft closing doors for $84k.
84k 😳😳😳😳😳😳 I paid 45 for mine the same one you have
@@lindseyhuerta9620 I'm referring to when it was brand new. Now if mine was $84k at purchase I would have had to leave it at the dealership lol.
My 1997 Nissan Maxima GXE also had that remote window roll down feature on the key fob. I was blown away when I found that out by accident one day. But like your CT6, you couldn’t roll them up remotely either. The A32 Maxima was a really great car.
I still don't understand how you can put a roll down feature in for a window but not a roll-up wonder if it rained LOL
Safety
folding mirror option makes sense for cold climates. Its there for a reason.
I LOVE my 18 CT6 .....BUT
1. The second to first downshift, when it is cold, can snap your neck off when you accelerate from a rolling stop.
2. The lack of a power source, think radar detector, making it necessary to run a power cable from the back seat cigarette lighter. There is a cigarette lighter outlet in the center console (you need to get the "smokers package" from Cadillac, but you can not close the center console cover with an accessory plugged in.
3. The lumbar support controllers top and bottom buttons don't do anything.
4. The cup holders are very awkward and accessible short term storage is lacking.
5. The rubberized coating next to the cellphone charging slot flakes off of the glossy plastic surface.
6. The "wireless cellphone charger" won't work if you have a protective case on the cellphone.
Small things but very irksome. ESPECIALLY THE 2DOWN TO 1 SNAP DOWNSHIFT!!!! (Worst on a downhill stop/go.)
I don't get your power seat beef. It's something you do once and rarely ever touch again - especially your model that has memory seats.
I agree with you on most everything, especially the steering wheel. I would also add the gass tank filler is on the passenger side of the car. I have to hustle to get to it before it locks or unlock the car when I get there.
I don’t know how to to drive but I think the car is gorgeous also. I do understand the issues you have with the shortcomings.
Just got my 17 ct6 and I agree…Cadillac can step up the interior a whole lot…but I love it!!!
I just bought a 2017 CT6 3.0 twin turbo AWD. I love the car, but it seems to me that it shifts a bit hard, especially from 1st to 2nd gear. I have talked to some people who have had the same experience and their dealers service dept. told them that it was normal for that transmission. I wonder if you have had that experience as well?
There is a comment above about having the dealership flush the transmission with a dfft type of fluid
I have the 19' ct6 Premium luxury. it's gorgeous, and I love it. That being said. I do miss having a CD player
I owned 1 my “cons” were sunroof to small not enough backseat room and my ct6 shared the same instrument panel as an Chevy camaro it was nice I traded it in for a scatpack in another year or 2 when it drops under20k I’ll get another then it will be worth it
i agree with you too on those things to hate , i wish the cue system was a little faster too
Daym... Thanks for point these cons out. That mirrow shouldnt of been listed as auto folding fo sho. Remote fo)ding is more like it. The one that gets me are the windows wont roll back up by remote... I can do that with my 2013 chevy cruze if i buy a plug and play control module.
Best to compare this to car in the same price range such as the Genesis G90
Though an available V8 and self closing doors make it have features that the Cadillac didnt offer
The windows not going up is a safety thing
Honestly I'm more impressed with Hyundai/Genesis especially & Kia for what they are offering & their level of refinement fit & finish is way better than Cadillac even though Cadillac has been in the business for decades & they should actually be the "Standard Of The World" The way Cadillac skimps on quality & features is just ridiculous considering they're supposed to represent American luxury?? I love the CTS-V Sport & give kudos for the CT-6 Blackwing model (which was short lived) but I think Cadillac is getting lazy & not really focusing on pure customer satisfaction! I was recently in a Kia K900 & was blown away by it's build quality, materials & design layout! I think they should create a different name for their luxury line because the name Kia just doesn't do that vehicle justice as far as nameplate goes! Also the Genesis G80 & G90 in my opinion are better equipped with far greater attention to detail! Great review by the way & I totally agree with you. Another thing about the caddy is the door handle feels very cheap & not well put together,that is just unacceptable!!!
Got to get the platinum edition
Let me add one. It's also kinda nitpicky, but you can pop the trunk with the remote, but can't close it with the remote. And I really don't understand the 2 second hold on the remote to get the mirrors to fold/open.
I was just thinking the same thing the other night when it was raining. Why didn't Cadillac put a bulb in the windshield wiper selector stick? Make it backlit! 💡 That way I could see right away, what wiper speed I have instead of taking my eyes off the road too long.
I have a 2016 CT6 3.6 L and when you try to drive it slow like in a parking lot its jerky,I don't think it's the transmission because it only does it when you have to drive slow,have you noticed that with your CT6?
I haven't had that problem when I first got the car it was kind of jerky on take off sometimes but never went parking
@@CadillacDriven That's what I was meaning like if you slow down like if someone was crossing in front your car and then after they pass you give it a little gas it does it ,it seems to do better if I have it in sport mode,but in touring it will do almost everytime.I guess the next time I get a oil change I'll ask the service advisor if something can be adjusted or reprogrammed.
@@michaels5886 yes I'm with you on that mine's of the same thing
Yes i have noticed that with mine in parking lots at shopping centers driving slow
@@craig2469 what yall meaning like it'll give itself some gas and shoot forward?
The button is inside on the door it’s cool
Thank you...all good observations. TRE'
Can’t fold down the rear seats
No you cannot still not a deal-breaker
HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GOING TO MOVE THE DRIVER'S SEAT..? !
STOP and THINK..!
@cadillacdriven I've had my 01' DeVille since 01'. It's in nice condition and I'm 6'5...so, I do the lean, while my left leg/foot rests on the rocker, between the door and the seat. I haven't been able to drive that way with other "full size cars." That's why I've been with my Deville so long. So, can your leg fit between the door and the seat, to do the lean, like in the DeVille on your CT6? Because, I've been looking into the CT6 as my next car.
Lincoln MKZ 2009 the windows and sunroof open and close from the key fob
I've owned three CT6's and the first two 17's ended up in auction before four thousand miles. Build quality, electrical gremlins and that awful 8 speed transmission forced me to return them to the dealership. My '19 is the same car except for the improved 10 speed transmission. Remember that this is an entry level luxury car so GM had to cut expenses to keep the price down.
I agree I love a Cadillac but it’s not because it’s a quality vehicle.
I’ve had multiple new Caddy’s and currently have a CT6 and CTS-V.
The CT-6 still has plastic on the screen and just turned 23,000 miles or so and is kept indoors.
I wish I had that car!
I'd love the chance to be able to hate those things!
I have 20' CT6. I absolutely hate the auto dimming rearview and side.
I don’t like that my seats don’t cool. I can do without seat heat, but I need cool leather seats.
Does your car have a cigarette lighter adapter,?
what do you use to plug-in Accessories ?
All but the last one.
My 2016 Ford Fusion hybrid windows roll up from the remote 😂
really!!!
Yes really

Is that motor more reliable than the 2.0t rwd?

Maybe nit picking?

Thank you 👍
nice video thanks...how many miles does it have?

YES!!! THE STEERING WHEEL!!! Very disappointing. I'm 6'7" and I feel like it super reaching to the steering. Same problem with the XT5!!! The 2019-2020 refreshed models fixed that problem.
I got a 04 Deville DHS and I only paid 2 grand but It was 60k brand new In 2004 and I rlly love the car, but I would never pay that much for one. It's super sweet but a plastic rebadged Chevy interior isn't worth $60k
KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL...
YOU ARE NOT A PIMP...! STOP THE KNIT PICKING..!
.
He's not knit picking about the steering wheel on the 2016-2018 CT6. I'm 6'7" and I feel like I have to super reach to grab the steering wheel. That'll produce a strain on your arms and shoulders. Very uncomfortable and unnecessary.
Wahhhh wahhh wahhh 😭
Seriously man, you are nitpicking a lot. Just be happy with what you have, good Lord. Why do people always have to focus on the negative? You know there are little children in the world tonight going to bed without food, and you’re worried about lighting up your 10 white adjustable seat button. 🤦🏻♀️
Stop nit picking I don't agree with any of your nit pucking
This is not picky, this is a female Angle review in a male voice. Great!
