I just got a alert on credit carma that my Cadillac xlr value has changed. Is this for real. by the time it reaches 2025 it will be worthless according to credit cards. Lol. How is this when the dealer ships and others have been begging me to sell her. Or has the priced dropped by 9 k

I wouldn't worry about that, Just drive it and enjoy it! If you want to 'Invest' in something I suggest real estate!
My 06 XLR has been an absolute treat. I have never had a major issue. If I had read up on the car before buying it I probably would have passed, mainly because parts are becoming unavailable. If our cars are dropping in value one of the reasons is that parts are a major problem. I also own a Chevy SSR and this is also a vehicle with potential problems. However there is group of owners that share their expertise and help other owners when they have problem , a big example being the roof. There are also a couple of owners manufacturing replacement parts and new parts to make the trucks run better. They are always have workshops around the country doing repairs and teaching owners how to do stuff.This is what I think we need on the XLR site. I know there are extremely sharp individuals on this site that know these cars but I do think for the most part you are on your own if you run into a major problem. I wouldn't guess how many cars I have owned over the years but my XLR's are my favorite by far. I am sure most will agree that Cadillac is never going to do anything and so we need to take care of ourselves. To sell one of these cars because you don't think you can get parts is a real shame.
Sorry for rambling.

Ok this is the second time that I’ve had this problem show up on my display. First was the low coolant level display everytime I started it up. I’ve taken her in to my dealership because the last time it was a hole in the hose. Now the display is showing fasten seat belt. So today took her in and the service manager brought over my tech guy. So he looked up on the part and said it’ll be about $510 including shop fee and parts. They said it’s probably a relay sensor in the belt housing. They would need to take seat out and go from there. So this will be a big bill for me because since I’m 1 k close to my oil change. I might just have them do that plus the oil change. Since she’ll be in the shop already.
