Cadillac XT6 — reported problems
CarFaultIQ holds 4,993 evidence records for the Cadillac XT6 (2020–2025), drawn from official sources and owner complaints.
What owners report: issue areas
Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 286 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.
- Driver-assistance systems62 (21.7%)Official recall records for this system: 1, covering model years 2020–2021.
- Electrical system48 (16.8%)Official recall records for this system: 1, covering model years 2024–2025.

- Engine26 (9.1%)
- Fuel system22 (7.7%)Official recall records for this system: 5, covering model years 2020–2022.
- Brakes14 (4.9%)Official recall records for this system: 1, covering model years 2022.
Other / uncategorized: 34 classifications (11.9%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.
These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.
What the records are about, by source
Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.
- Owner complaints (208 records, model years 2020–2025) are most frequently classified under: driver-assistance systems, electrical system and powertrain (transmission & drivetrain).
- Manufacturer communications (4,734 records, model years 2020–2025) are most frequently classified under: equipment & accessories, electrical system and engine.
"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
Mileage reported when the issue occurred
- 52reports included a mileage
- 22,100average of those mileages
This is the mileage owners recorded at the time they reported, not an expected failure mileage and not a prediction for any individual vehicle. The lowest and highest figures on record are not shown: they are unverified odometer entries that include zeros and implausibly high readings, so they would not describe a real range. A median is not shown either, because the stored figures are group totals and a median cannot be recovered from them.
Evidence by model year
Records held per model year. Select a year to narrow this page to it.
- 2020 901 records for 2020
- 2021 833 records for 2021
- 2022 763 records for 2022
- 2023 558 records for 2023
- 2024 394 records for 2024
- 2025 209 records for 2025
Counts are not adjusted for how many vehicles were sold in each year, so a taller year is not necessarily a worse year.

Diagnostic codes found in evidence for this vehicle
These codes appear by explicit identifier in official records matched to this exact model and year.
A code appearing in a record means the code was named in that document. It is not a diagnosis of this vehicle, not a fault this vehicle has, and not an indication of urgency. Diagnosis requires reading live data from the vehicle.
