Even though Cadillac CTS is an excellent vehicle, it also has some problems and complaints about those problems. One among that about one of the consumers of the vehicle complains that the vehicle has a dangerous acceleration lag when stepped on the gas to get out of the way or to pass in road. The lag is about a second or two between the step on pedal and the rmps moving. The car emits a sound which any of the other vehicles did among what he used. When compared to the speed of any oncoming vehicles, the difference of a second or two will mean a distance of 30-60 yards being travelled by any oncoming vehicle. Such sight is filled up in the rear view mirror quickly than how the real scene was. This is a very serious flaw of design and potentially a death causing effect. He says that it happens when quick acceleration is needed and is also the same with the other cars at dealership when checked by a doubt that the problem was only with his vehicle.

One more problem of the vehicle is with the CTS equipment of the vehicle. It sometimes will not recognize the electronic key fob by preventing the user from locking the ignition of the vehicle before exiting the vehicle.
