Shortly after that the used Cadillac price curve will make a 4-5 year plato, then going up for 8-10 year-old vehicles of selected editions and modifications. Yes, some of the Cadillac editions were more successful than others. And there are releases and modifications you should definitely avoid to save money.
What to look for when buying a used Cadillac
- The number one quality and repair problem with Cadillac vehicles from the beginning of the 00s up to present is the so-called “head gasket” issue. Head gasket massively went off especially on the North Star engines
- at all cost avoid the 3,6 engine
- head gasket replacement and connected repairs may cost you more than a used vehicle actually costs
- Another common problem is the failure and complete replacement of the turbocharger
- avoid 2.0 Turbo engines on 2014 and newer vehicles
- again the turbo repair may cost you a fortune
- Newer models are filled with electronics that very often goes out
- Avoid 2014 and newer model vehicles with electronic brake systems for major issues
- Exclude vehicles with extendable touch-sensitive door handles. These things often go off risking you staying locked outside in snow, heat or rain, cats and dogs weather
- Try not to buy models with electronic climate and fuel systems management as they proved to be quite fragile
- Avoid 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX and 2000-2005 Cadillac Deville vehicles for major issues.
