Every Cadillac, ranked. Lower is better. 100 is the average car.

Each score covers that model's own model years. Cadillac wasn't one of the 22 brands in our 2010–2022 study, so it has no brand score.

Also on Lemon Index. Cadillac performance, electric and supercar pages.

Coming soon: ATS-V, CT4-V Blackwing, Escalade-V.

The Lemon Index counts owner complaints filed with the U.S. government (NHTSA) in a car's first 3 years, per car sold, against the average car of the same model years (100 = average, lower is better). It measures complaints, not crash safety. How it works · Every brand
