2015 CADILLAC CTS Complaints

I PURCHASED THIS CAR 15MAR16 FROM DUBLIN CADILLAC IN DUBLIN, CA. THE DRIVER SIDE BLIND SPOT DETECTION WAS NOT WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY, BUT TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT AND THAT "I WOULD JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITHOUT IT". SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE, I THOUGHT THEY SHOULD HAVE CORRECTED IT UNDER WARRANTY. THEY HAVE REFUSED, SO I AM BRINGING THIS TO YOU ATTENTION AND REQUESTING HELP TO GET IT WORKING CORRECTLY. I HAVE HAD TWO CLOSE CALLS DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER IS DUBLIN CADILLAC, 4200 JOHN MONEGO COURT,DUBLIN, CA.

THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN WHEN IT WAS IN PARK, WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED, AND THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. HOME SECURITY CAMERA CAPTURED THE ENTIRE INCIDENT ON FILM. WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE THE NHTSA WITH THE FOOTAGE.

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION, LEFT OR RIGHT, OF THE VEHICLE, THERE IS A LOUD METAL-ON-METAL NOISE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TWICE TO MCGUIRE CADILLAC WHERE I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS "NO FIX AT THIS TIME." I HAVE CONTACTED CADILLAC HEADQUARTERS NUMEROUS TIMES AND, UNFORTUNATELY, NO ASSISTANCE HAS BEEN GIVEN. ON DECEMBER 30, 2015, WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH ON THE RIGHT LANE OF A HIGHWAY, I SUDDENLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE VEERED ACROSS TO THE LEFT ACROSS THREE LANES ON THE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE DID A 360 COMING TO REST FACING ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHERE I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE BRAKE OR GAS PEDALS IN THE VEHICLE. AFTER COMING TO A HALT, I WAS THEN ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. IT WAS A VERY SCARY SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CADILLAC CTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE SWERVED OUT OF CONTROL WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE UNDER CONTROL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,038.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CADILLAC CTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT VARIOUS WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED FROM 35 TO 45 MPH INDEPENDENTLY.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUSES FAILED IN THE TRANSMISSION (TCN). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
