Drove 1800 miles and needs new transmission

Once the transmission went out I took it back to Harris Ford they would not even diagnose it. I took it to Cadillac to see if it they could. The car would drive in 1 &2 but 3 or 4. Once they did their diagnosis they said there were no codes and then repeated back to me that the shift problem was the transmission would not shift in to 3 or 4 and charged me $170. I would not own another Cadillac it they gave it to me. More to come.

Beautiful reliable Cadillac Truck

This truck was amazing. I loved how it rode and comfort. Gas mileage wasn?t great and neither was the Insurance premium or the excise tax.
