2007 CADILLAC CTS Complaints

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN OUR HOME GARAGE. IT WOULD NOT START, IT WOULD START WHEN JUMPED BUT DIED SHORTLY AFTER. WE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED, IT WAS BAD, WE REPLACED W A NEW BATTERY. CAR STARTED RIGHT UP, BUT WOULD NOT CUT POWER ONCE THE KEY WAS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. CAR DINGS AND DASH AND RADIO ARE ON AS IF KEYS ARE STILL IN THE IGNITION.

MINE IS THE TIMING CHAIN SLIPS CAUSED FROM WRONG VALVE COVER GASKET AND THE LIFE ON THE OIL

I WAS GIVING A RECALL PAPER IN THE MAIL , SO I TOOK MY CAR TO THE ADDRESS LISTED ON THE REFORM. THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T DO THE RECALL. THE REASON THEY DECIDED NOT TO DO IT WAS BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE CORRECT KEYS AND WAS TOLD ' YOU CAR DOESN'T NEED IT, IT DOESN'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM UNLESS YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL KEY'. I TRIED CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER TO CONFIRM THIS CLAM BUT THEY LEFT ME ON HOLD. I HAVE THE IMPRESSION THEY DIDN'T WANT TO DO THE SERVICE FOR FREE.I JUST WANT TO KNOW WEATHER MY CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH THAT WHEN HIT THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK. I WAS HIT TWICE ON DRIVER REAR AND PASSENGER REAR, SPUN OUT AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS CROSSING OVER A CITY ROAD FROM A STOP SIGN, WAS HIT AT 60 MPH. I WAS DOING 20 MPH GOING STRAIGHT ACROSS FROM THE STOP SIGN.

WHILE TURNING LEFT AT LOW SPEED THE BRAKES FAILED SO I CENTERED THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE CAR STOPPED.

MY CAR HAS MOMENTS WHERE I HAVE TO SLAM HARD ON THE. RAKES FOR IT TO STOP. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY BRAKES BUT I HAD THEM CHANGED AND IT STILL DOES IT AND FLASHES A SIGN THAT SAYS 'NO TRACTION CONTROL'. ALSO MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT WORK ON THE INSIDE AS IF THERE'S A MECHANICAL GLITCH. AND I HAVE A 'SERVICE AITBAG CODE' CONSTANTLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC CTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL AND TEMPERATURE GAUGES MALFUNCTIONED AND THE KEY WAS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CRESTMONT CADILLAC (26000 CHAGRIN BLVD, BEACHWOOD, OH 44122, (216) 831-5300) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR THE VEHICLE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

IN AUGUST 2011, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER IN RESPONSE TO RECALL 10355 WITH APPROXIMATELY 31,600 MILES. PART 19124390 PASSENGER SIDE SEAT CUSHION/AIRBAG MODULE WAS REPLACED. IN FEBRUARY 2019, SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT BECAME ILLUMINATED AND TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS. MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 66,000. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT CUSHION/ AIR BAG MODULE, WHICH IS THE SAME ITEM REPLACED IN AUGUST 2011. EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN 7/8 YEARS SINCE REPAIR, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 35,000. OF THOSE 35,0000, A FRONT PASSENGER WAS PROBABLY IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FOR ONLY 15,000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS SECOND SENSOR PART IS DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED AT CADILLAC'S EXPENSE. DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING INVOICES AND ESTIMATES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
