2010 CADILLAC CTS Complaints

I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH AT AROUND 7PM WHEN A DUMP TRUCK SUDDENLY MOVED INTO MY LANE. I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY SLAM ON THE BRAKES. SIMULTANEOUSLY, I SOUNDED MY HORN AND FLICKED MY HIGH BEAMS MULTIPLE TIMES AT WHICH POINT ALL OF MY OUTSIDE LIGHTS WENT OFF. I WAS COMPLETELY IN THE DARK, TRAVELING IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH, WITH NO STREET LIGHTS AND NO CAR LIGHTS. I SLOWED AS QUICKLY AS I COULD AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTARTED. ONCE THE CAR RESTARTED, THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. I EXPERIENCED THIS A SECOND TIME ON THE NIGHT OF NOVEMBER 18, 2014 ONCE MORE AROUND 7PM. I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PASS A SLOWER VEHICLE. I SHIFTED MY CTS INTO SPORT TRANSMISSION MODE IN ORDER TO DOWNSHIFT TO PASS. AT THE SAME TIME, I PUT MY SIGNAL ON TO INDICATE I WAS MOVING MY CAR TO THE LEFT TO PASS. I PASSED THE VEHICLE, PUT MY SIGNAL ON TO INDICATE I WAS MOVING TO THE RIGHT, AND ALL OF MY EXTERIOR LIGHTS WENT OUT. UNLIKE THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED, I WAS NOT ENGAGING ANY CONTROLS FOR MY LIGHTS OR HORN. I WAS SIMPLY PASSING AND USING MY TURN SIGNAL. ONCE MORE, I WAS MOVING IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH WITH NO LIGHTS ON A RURAL ROAD. FORTUNATELY, I WAS FAMILIAR WITH THIS ROAD, SO I WAS ABLE TO FIND A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER, SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, AND RESTART. JUST LIKE THE OCTOBER 2014 OCCURRENCE, WHEN THE VEHICLE RESTARTED, THE LIGHTS RETURNED TO NORMAL FUNCTIONING. *TR

THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HILL THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS HAPPENED I CHECKED WITH GM TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS CAR AND AT THIS TIME THERE IS NOT. WE WERE LUCKY BOTH TIMES THAT THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND AND THAT THE CAR WAS KEPT UNDER CONTROL WHILE BRINGING IT TO A STOP. ALTHOUGH GM HAS NO RECALLS FOR THIS CAR I AM FILLING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE OF THE MANY RECALLS THAT ARE OUT THERE FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. WILL THE THIRD TIME BE A CHARM WHEN IT HAPPENS AND SOMEONE GETS KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED FOR GM TO INCLUDE THIS CAR? IT WILL BE TO LATE!!!!!!! *TR
