What Owners are Saying About the 2017 Cadillac Escalade

"Mechanical and Electrical Nightmare"

"The Escalade is beautiful on the outside and the interior is comfortable and spacious, but this the most unreliable vehicle I have owned in 25 years of driving. On multiple occasions my wife has been stranded because the car wont start because of electrical issues. 3 batteries replaced in 4 months, a car alarm that randomly goes off and drains the battery. Theft deterrent system shuts down car for no reason and wont allow us to start it. All and I mean all of the plastic exterior components have been replaced under warranty. Electronic running boards have locked in the down positions and both needed replaced. Electronic talegate motor failed and had to be replaced. Water leaked in through the talegate and caused damage. I spend more time in the warranty vehicle the dealer provides than I do in the car I am paying for. Dont be drawn in to the beautiful design...you will regret it."

"It’s alright"

"For a $95,000 vehicle I guess you would think that things would work when it’s brand new. Unfortunately a lot of the extra “nice to have” convenience items are buggy and only work sometimes. While the entertainment system is old and out of date, we expected that the wireless headphones (10 year old tech) would be figured out, they aren’t. The “kick” to open rear gate rarely works. The buttons on the radio are horrible at changing with touch. I know there is a new model coming and unfortunately I would think it won’t be as reliable at first, which is a kick in the gut since the current “old” model isn’t reliable either."

"All the options, no stone unturned"

"Not mint but very good. It's Pearl (diamond) not white. Big difference. Special edition with Tuscan brown real leather interior. Recaro seats, front seats have massage options. Its shorter then esv which I like. It has great pick up, handles better than most cars. Don't know what exact gas mileage is, but I think it pretty good. Look it up. You can change ride, 2 options: sport or touring. Has heads up display."

2017 Cadillac Escalade Depreciation

Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.
