CADILAC CT6 50K MILE REVIEW! ISSUES...?

[@declanobrien4852]

How are you liking it now? Any other maintenance issues or expensive costs? Is it reliable? Thinking of a 2017 CT6.

@@declanobrien4852 so far so good! It has been a good car and a pleasure for daily driver duty’s but still only a little over 50k miles on it but it has never left us stranded or had a non drivable issue! Wish you the best with yours! Thanks for checking out the channel! 🤟🤟🤟👍👍👍👍👍👍

Do or did your tranmission do hard shifts from 1st to 2nd gear at very low speed?? Im having that problem. When im pulling off really slow at sometime shift hard to second gear.

I have this car as well, mine is the 2016 CT6 Platinum. I love the car but I too have this same issue. Honestly, these transmissions in these cars are terrible. The 8 speeds they used from 2016-2019 all have some kind of issue and its mostly with the hard shifting. GM is aware of the problem and a class action lawsuit was filed but I don't know what has come of that since as that was years ago. I have had it in the shop to correct the issue and they've done some software updates and what not but they basically say they cant find anything wrong with it. If you do some research on it, you will see many others have the same problem we do. I want to upgrade to the 2020 Platinum anyway and they use a different transmission in those. They switched to the 10 speed in the newer cars and they are much better than the 8's. Good luck my friend GM doesnt have a fix for this nor do they want to and its a shame for a car this expensive.

@Trillaxin thanks so much for the information. I was going to get it looked at before my max care warranty runs out but you said that there's no fix😫😫

[@bought2build]

yes I have had it do that a few times not crazy hard but noticable thanks for checking out the channel 🤟 🤟 🤟 🤟

[@bought2build]

thank you for the info! and yeah I mean honestly tho the fact they have an issue and don't want to deal with it makes me not want to buy another one which is a shame because I do love the car. it is weird if I beat on it and drive it hard it is usually fine it is only when I am driving it easy I notice it

[@Fourislove]

@bought2build exactly. I'm still going to take it in tho just to make sure they can't do anything about it because I don't want to be stuck with a bad tranmission when my warranty runs out lol
