Beautiful SUV

Low beam headlights are so dim it’s unsafe to drive at night. This seems to be endemic to the model. Costly repair. Should be a recall on this.

I am looking forward to driving my 2014 SRX.

I will be driving this vehicle to work daily and I am looking forward to this as we are up upgrading from a 2006 Ford Explorer. This vehicle has a lot of safety features which was really appealing to us.

Extremely Disappointing Luxury Vehicle

Purchased a 2014 SRX Luxury AWD (replacing back-to-back Lexus RX 350's). Unfortunately, the test drive did not not reveal many of the disappointing flaws with this "luxury" vehicle. The drivers seat is extremely uncomfortable, almost impossible to get the lumbar support in a position that feels like you are securely in the drivers seat, with minimal side bolster support. Turning radius is not nimble at all (i.e. like BMW or Lexus models), and the SRX is very difficult to manuever in a tight parking lot. The pillars create some massive blind spots on both sides of the vehicle. The headlights are horrendous!! Daylight test drive obviously does not reveal the dim level of lighting, and leaving a well-lighted car lot and well-lighted city streets after dark does not provide the proper perspective. For a car of this "quality" and price point to not have HID lights is shocking and unbelievable. The lights are so dim that my wife will not drive the car after dark. GM really cut corners on the night-time visibility, which is a shame. The CUE system has a substantial learning curve, and the reach to the screen is challenging when driving. The "phantom touch" feature to activate the screen is nice. Will be looking to get out of this vehicle ASAP. Was hoping for a great American luxury car to drive for years, but this one is not it!! Back to Lexus or BMW ASAP.

Most Luxurious Vehicle

My newly purchased 2014 SRX is the most luxurious vehicle that I've ever drove and owned. It far exceeded my expectations, even after researching other luxury crossovers and reading reviews on the SRX. Makes being stuck in traffic so much less stressful; at times, even pleasurable. Rides and handles like a dream too. Nothing but an exceptional vehicle with high praises in performance, looks, and comfort.

My first luxury vehicle

Very comfortable and roomy. 3 dogs and I on long road trips is no problem. Crazy amount of tech that I hope does not break down.

Luxury, comfort, technology

I wasn't planning on buying a Cadillac but I test drove one at my Lexus dealership and ended up driving at home. The only thing I have trouble with is touching the panel to adjust volume and fan speed.

Good value for the money SUV!

This car which is the premium model is packed with a lot of features found in more expensive cars. A lot of them can be programmed to suit your preferences. I like the voice command, heating and automatic lights and doors programs. With more than 300 HP, it has enough power to get you out of tight situations.

bad night vision. poor lighting

the poorest lighting system I have ever had on a vehicle. night driving is dangerous. I have the Cadillac srx luxury edition. I have all the safety packages. I thought I had all the bells and whistles. this car does not have fog lights. I did not realize this when I purchased the vehicle. ever year the lights seem to get dimmer.

Nice Car...smooth ride

The car is great for someone looking for a "sporty" crv. It's a luxury car and drives like one. I love the amenities especially sunroof
