2015 CADILLAC CTS
This model year
What the record shows
The 2015 Cadillac Cts is a midsize car, and the 13th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2003 to 2019.
The EPA rated two configurations: a single 6.2-litre eight-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 14 to 16 mpg depending on which one you have.
NHTSA's best overall crash rating for this model year is 5 out of five stars.
The federal record holds 47 owner complaints, 3 safety recalls and 1,456 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
