2015 Cadillac ATS consumer reviews

I previously leased a 2014 and was heartbroken when I had to return it end of lease in 2017. I picked up a used 2015 in 2020 and it has been as much pleasure to drive as the previous one. Both were 2.0L turbos, 4WD. I am in Canada, and it performs well, especially in winter, with winter tires of course. The ride is stiff but responsive. Comfort is great in the front. Consider this a two-seater unless you are only putting young kids or people you dislike in the cramped, unheated rear seats. Everything about driving this car is a joy. The acceleration, the handling, the sound system, the brakes, I could go on. Everything about the CUE system is of course abysmal. The design, the reliability, the fact that every once in a while it comes up with a nag screen reminding you to keep your eyes on the road, which you have to take your eyes off the road to dismiss. I bought the 2015 with a broken screen, knowing that I could replace it myself for 1/10th of what the dealer was charging, as I had to do this with my SRX - twice! Both side mirrors have failed and are now secured with epoxy. You would think that a company that has been around for 100 years or so would know how to make side mirrors? But I know that they also don't know how to make headlights, because (as already mentioned) I also own an SRX. If you can put up with the annoyances (which I can), this is a great car.

Reliable, comfortable, handles extremely well, it has power- very zippy. I have been very happy with this car, it has everything you need from a Cadillac.

I have a 2014 ATS with almost 70k on her. I have not had a problem yet. As far as the ride It has a excellent ride for its size. Performance is more than ample. Has a excellent sound system and it does have a cd player.

MY Cadillac ATS 2.0 AWD was a horrible owner experience from start to finish. Never have I had a car that required so much service and repair. This is a high maintenance, low reliability, poorly designed car. The 2.0L 4 cylinder turbocharged, direct injection engine is an embarrassment. Sounds like a sewing machine. Black smoke at start up is “normal”. Internal engine failure is common. Rear differential failure is common. Transmission shudder is common. CUE infotainment screen failure is a given. Disgusting excuse for a luxury automobile. I tried to like it but each time I drove it, I liked it less and trusted it even lesser. Good riddance Cadillac ATS4.

I love my car. I am glad I went with this car. Compared to my Passat 2001, I am adjusting to the smaller interior. The seat is too high on the sides and area could be more roomier. Also, the trunk is smaller, than my Passat. BUT, the upside is I DO NOT HAVE TO DEAL with the Volkswagen service manager and all their excuses. My Cadillac dealearship is amazing.

Axle bolts continue to break off causing serious safety hazards. Scared to drive the vehicle. Purchased luxury edition and it looks amazing but are truly a safety hazard.

This car is FUN to drive all and it works well for my family too. I have been on road trips for several hours and stayed comfortable the entire time. The steering has excellent feedback and manual transmission is a treat in the ATS Coupe. It's easily the best car I've owned.

Left my Buick behind. Cadillac is my passion! Stunning interior. Georgeous exterior. ATS does not have that Buick suspension. But it’s so much fun to drive. Gotta love it! ATS makes Sky a happy boy!

Perfect car......always wanted a caddy and when I saw this one I knew it. Great service friendly and knowledgable. Buying provess was quick and easy and great pricing.

This car met not only all of my of my needs, but also everything I ever wanted in a car. It has all the bells and whistles in the long-standing reliability of a Cadillac.
