Very Reliable vehicle

Great and reliable vehicle. New Engine and new Transmission were installed recently. It has a very smooth ride, a hearty V8 engine, and ample cargo space

Have only owned for 2 months

Have not owned vehicle long enough to give a good opinion. I do like everything about the styling of the vehicle, interior is comfortable, and has a nice ride for a SUV.

Least Reliable SUV I owned

I bought my Escalade ESV CPO with under 50k miles. In 18 months I replaced THREE OEM batteries that went completely dead randomly. Dealership never identified the problem in almost 2 years until just recently. Had a ruby transmission issues and vibrations that couldn’t be identified. 2 years later and 5 years after initial sale, they may found an Electrical manufacture/Assembly defect that may have possibly been the root cause of all the issues. I’ve also had to replace a pair of struts within 4 yrs/50k of assembly, out of which one of them failed again within 12 mon and replaced under warranty recently. Steer away !

Great Styling and Performance. 1st run glitches.

The styling and finishes inside and out are fantastic. The Cue system on the 15 isn't my cup of tea, as it's tedious to navigate radio stations and takes your eyes off the road. Performance is great at 39k miles. I'm still rolling the factory rubber and have some life left on them. Other than oil changes, no other regular maintenance has been required yet. We have had 2 warranty issues. The panels behind the doors on both the driver and passenger sides came loose and were causing wind noise at highway speeds. Also, the car refused to go into gear one day. It was the transmission solenoid. That required a tow to the dealership. I got a loaner 16 Escalade as a loaner and noticed that it seems to drive a bit better. There was a transmission change in the 16s. Pros: Styling. Amenities. Comfort. Towing capability. Finishes. Cons: 1st year run issues.

Love this Caddy!

We needed a large vehicle to transport kids and their stuff. It is the best car I’ve owned! Never any problems. Carfax will show a couple of issues, but will be explained to interested buyers. Needs to be seen and driven. It is a beaut! Only selling to upgrade to platinum due to sore backs. Second owner.

Best car Ive owned

This car is not lacking in any area. Powerful engine, stylish, head turner. Very smooth ride. The inside controls are the best looking and the sound system nothing compares.

Smooth ride in a smooth truck

This is the first SUV I have owned and I am not sure I could ask for more. The ESV is BIG, but not too big and has a great ride to it. Tons of amenities extremely nice inside. If you are looking for a great everyday vehicle and have kids, dogs or other stuff to haul around, look no further.
