2014 Cadillac Ats problems

cadillac logo

The Cadillac ATS (ATS as an acronym for Alpha Touring Sedan) is a compact executive car (D-segment) manufactured by General Motors and marketed by Cadillac from 2012 to 2019, available in both four-door sedan and two-door coupé body styles. In the US, it is the brand's first locally-built entry-level premium car since the Cimarron, and in Europe, it is the successor of the Swedish-built Cadillac BLS. The ATS was developed at the General Motors Technical Center in Warren, Michigan and assembled the ATS at the Lansing Grand River Assembly plant in Lansing, Michigan.

The ATS is based on General Motors' Alpha platform and is offered in either rear- or all-wheel drive configurations. The ATS base engine had been a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter I-4 gasoline engine that produces 202 hp (151 kW), until the 2016 model year. Optional engines include a 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 gasoline engine that produces 272 hp (203 kW) and a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6 gasoline engine that produces 321 hp (239 kW). The 2.0-liter engine replaced the 2.5-liter engine as the base engine for the 2017 model year. All versions were equipped with a 6-speed GM 6L45 Hydra-Matic automatic transmission as standard until the 2015 model year. An 8-speed automatic transmission was introduced for the 2016 model year. The 2.0-liter turbocharged, rear-wheel drive version can be mated to an optional 6-speed Tremec M3L TR-3160 manual transmission.

Prior to the debut of the ATS, Cadillac's smallest vehicle was the E-segment CTS. The CTS was comparable in price to D-segment competitors like the Audi A4, the BMW 3 Series, the Lexus IS and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, however was comparable in size and weight to the more expensive BMW 5 Series. Although Cadillac believed that customers would favor a Mercedes-Benz E-Class-sized sedan at the price of a 3 Series, this assumption was proven to be incorrect. Cadillac's research found that target customers who already owned vehicles like the 3 Series or A4 did not want a larger vehicle.

Cadillac debuted the ATS to the press in the United States in January 2012, placed the ATS into production in July 2012 and began selling the ATS in the United States in August 2012 as a 2013 model. GM began selling the ATS in China in November 2013. Cadillac sold the ATS in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, the Middle East, China, Japan, and South Korea. The ATS was replaced by the Cadillac CT4 in 2019 for the 2020 model year.

After I arrived back home, upon further research, I found that this was a common problem for this make and model of car and that there was a recall for Cadillac ATS' manufactured between 2013-2016. After calling GM's customer service line, the representative expressed that my VIN did not register under the specific recall and therefore would not qualify for a replacement rear differential. This is a problem in which can total my vehicle, though no problems besides the leak have occurred as of my knowledge. There was no indication before the oil change on 5/7 of a leak, no warning lamps or other telling signs. If I had not brought my vehicle for its routine maintenance, I would not be aware of the situation.

2014 Cadillac Ats recalls

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued 4 recalls for different components of the 2014 Cadillac Ats.

2015-09-03
  • Manufacturer: General Motors LLC
  • Components: VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM
  • Summary: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Cadillac ATS sedan vehicles manufactured April 23, 2012, to September 2, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the coil antenna module that powers the rear defogger system may generate excessive heat due to excessive cycling or continuous operation.
  • Consequence: If the coil antenna generates excessive heat, there is an increased risk of a fire.
  • Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the Electronic Climate Control module to remove the automatic rear defogger "on" function, free of charge. The recall began on October 16, 2015. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 15299.
2015-07-24
  • Manufacturer: General Motors LLC
  • Components: VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
  • Summary: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Cadillac ATS vehicles manufactured April 25, 2012, to June 25, 2015. The affected vehicles may experience the roof panel closing automatically when the non-recessed switches are pressed and the roof panel is open. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 118, "Power-Operated Window, Partition, and Roof Panel Systems."
  • Consequence: Because the switch is not recessed, the roof panel switch may inadvertently be pressed resulting in unintended auto-closure of the roof panel, increasing the risk of personal injury.
  • Remedy: GM will notify owners and dealers will replace the roof console accessory switch trim plate, free of charge. The recall began on August 19, 2015. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 15568. Note this recall supersedes 15V-106.
2014-07-23
  • Manufacturer: General Motors LLC
  • Components: SEATS
  • Summary: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Buick Encore and Cadillac ATS; 2014 Cadillac CTS, ELR, Chevrolet Caprice and SS vehicles; and 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra Trucks. Due to an incomplete weld on the seat hook bracket assembly, the front seats in the affected vehicles may not stay secured in place during a high load condition such as a crash.
  • Consequence: A seat that does not stay secured increases the risk of occupant injury in a vehicle crash.
  • Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat hook bracket assembly weld and replace the lower seat track, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2014. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), and 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14340.
2014-06-19
  • Manufacturer: General Motors LLC
  • Components: POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
  • Summary: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Cadillac ATS vehicles manufactured April 23, 2012, to March 20, 2014, and 2014 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured June 10, 2013, to March 20, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the transmission shift cable may detach from either the bracket on the transmission shifter or the bracket on the transmission.
  • Consequence: If the transmission shift cable detaches while the vehicle is being driven, the transmission gear selection may not match the indicated gear and the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Furthermore, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, despite selecting the 'PARK' position, the transmission may not be in 'PARK.' If the vehicle is not in the 'PARK' position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.
  • Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles to make sure the cable is properly seated at the transmission and shifter brackets, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in early August 2014. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 14179.

Negative 2014 Cadillac Ats car reviews

  1. Mustafa Romaguera 2024-11-08

    I reached out to the dealership who sold me the run flat tires and also tweeted GM, but unfortunately, no one seemed interested in hearing me out. After my crash on August 11, 2014, I discovered that several other ATS owners had experienced the same issue. However, I was the only one who suffered injuries and totaled my car. It's concerning that GM, the tire manufacturer, and the safety organizations are waiting for a fatal accident to occur before taking action. My 16-year-old daughter was with me in the car, and I am grateful that we survived. I urge you to help me bring attention to this issue. If this happened to someone you love, you would want to ensure their safety too.

  2. Damon Walker 2024-09-27

    The Cadillac ATS has experienced some shifting issues, which can be resolved by replacing the cue system. Although the replacement cost is $1500, it is a necessary investment to maintain the car's performance. Despite this issue, the car is still highly regarded and a great choice for drivers who value luxury and style.

  3. Marlin McLaughlin 2024-04-11

    The interior controls in my 2013 CTS were problematic. Unfortunately, the new interior design is even worse. However, I am confident that with some improvements, the interior can be made more functional and appealing. I am committed to finding a solution that meets my needs and expectations.

Positive 2014 Cadillac Ats car reviews

  1. Miles Lang 2025-01-02

    I fell in love with the car during the test drive because of the technology and the styling of the interior. However, my excitement was short-lived as the back seat turned out to be too small for my friends who are over 5'-9

  2. Cristopher Luettgen 2024-10-15

    As an owner of four consecutive 3 series BMWs, I was disappointed with the latest model. However, I found the perfect fit with the Cadillac ATS. It has wonderfully direct steering, a stiff chassis, and the perfect balance of sporty handling and comfort. Although there has been much talk about the CUE system not being as easy to use as others, I found it perfectly usable once I got used to it. While the fuel economy is not meeting its EPA estimate, I believe it may have something to do with the way I drive it.

  3. Geovanny Monahan 2024-09-06

    I hope you're doing well! I just wanted to say that I'm so glad I purchased my 2014 ATS4 with 74K miles in 2020. I absolutely love it! The only thing to keep in mind is that the backseat can be a bit tight, but there's ample trunk space. It's also really easy to maintain and I haven't had any issues with it. Overall, I highly recommend the ATS4 (all wheel drive) - it's phenomenal!

  4. Abe Cormier 2024-08-14

    Hello! We have a courtesy vehicle available for you to use. It has low miles and is ready for you whenever you need it.

  5. Jayme Hegmann 2024-07-02

    That's a fantastic car! I can't think of anything negative to say about it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
