- In the season three finale of Universal Pictures's popular and enduring "Columbo" detective movie series, Casa de Cadillac is lavishly featured beginning at time 1:05 in the film when Lieutenant Columbo has to visit to interview one of the firm's salesmen, a perfectly coiffed Mr. Shoup, complete with camel's hair suit and Rolex President, (presumably gifts from the deceased girl in the movie), whose alibi is that he was swinging with one of the "little book-keepers" at the dealership when his regular date stood him up (presumably on account of her being murdered by the real bad guy in the film, the chief of police). The Casa de Cadillac agency is particularly noteworthy in this scene because it shows a complete front row of multi-hued 1973 Deville and Fleetwood models, and behind that a complete row of brand new 1974 models including 2 Eldorados. The rain droplets on the lacquer of the new cars contrasts beautifully with the primer of Columbo's 20 year old junk Peugeot 403, for which Mr. Shoup generously offers the lieutenant $80.00 in a trade. Also noteworthy were the large gold Cadillac insignias on the signs for the agency, which were obviously erected in 1952–1953, because the insignia changed shape every year during that decade and were only done in gold for the 1952 year, the 50th anniversary of the Cadillac division. Each sign was larger than a Cadillac. - In Michael Bay's Transformers, the character Jazz drops down from the roof of the Casa De Cadillac dealership before transforming into vehicle form to meet with the other Autobots at Bumblebee's location. - In the 1985 Arnold Schwarzenegger action film Commando, the character Cooke commandeers a Cadillac and drives it through the display window. - In Tom Petty's "Free Fallin" (1989), Casa de Cadillac stands prominently across the street from the pink Future Dogs hot dog stand. - In NBC's Up All Night, Christina Applegate and Will Arnett look for a potential new family car. - Part of the 2004 "Make Room for Caddy" episode of The Bernie Mac Show was filmed in the Casa de Cadillac showroom. - In the opening of San Fernando Valley natives HAIM "Want You Back" music video.
