2024 CADILLAC LYRIQ Complaints

Inside display dims inappropriately, even in daylight making it impossible to see navigation. Hazard when trying to drive on road. Could cause accident. Needs option to manually brighten/dim. Auto dim feature in this vehicle is terrible.

Vehicle dash won't activate beyond the welcome screen thereby preventing me from seeing the speedometer, fuel gage, lane sensors, navigation, etc. I had to drive it on side streets to the closest dealer without aid of any standard dash meters.

The bigger issue is the car will prematurely dim the display and dusk/dawn - making it very hard to see at those times - even with max dimmer setting. Took it to the dealer multiple times they say it’s working as expected but it’s a known issue for all lyriq owners that GM ignores

At multiple times when raining, the Automatic emergency braking system activated for no apparent reason as no hazard could be determined.

The vehicle's instrument panel automatically dims excessively at dusk and dawn. When it does this, the speedometer and other information in the dashboard are not visible. There is no way to adjust the brightness any higher and no way to disable this auto dim feature. This is, to my knowledge, a known software bug that has persisted for close to two years without any effort by GM to rectify this safety issue.

When approaching sunset, or when travelling under bridges, the dash dims excessively and is barely readable. I have to take my eyes off the road for extended periods of time to be able to see the information. The excessive dim does not reset itself, when the ambient lighting returns to normal, for a prolonged period of time. Complaints to the dealer service department, GM EV Concierge, and OnStar have not had any effect on resolving this. Tnis is an ongoing problem since delivery of the vehicle.

Lyriq display not bright enough prematurely dim the display and dusk/dawn - making it very hard to see at those times - even with max dimmer setting

Unable to get display lighting bright enough to adequately read instrumentation when coming out of garage into low atmospheric lighting. Have instrument display lighting rheostat turned up to maximum but sensors don't allow the display to brighten. The vehicle lighting sensor is not blocked. The rheostat should be able to turn the display to full bright, but isn't designed that way. Definitely a safety issue. Cadillac dealership says there is nothing they can do about this situation, but acknowledge it's a widely reported complaint. The manual rheostat should be able to turn the display to full bright by selecting the maximum setting. Unfortunately it's not designed that way.

While we're driving the vehicle the adaptive cruse control was on. As we approached a vehicle ours started to slow down from 55mph to where it almost braked all the way about 2mph. The vehicle in front of us braked completely and was stopped. As soon as they were stopped, Our vehicle tried to rapidly accelerate into the back of it where we had to intervene and slam on the brakes. If we didn't do this there would have been an accident due to our adaptive cruise control failing. This has happend twice to us. Taken the vehicle to the dealership and they cant replicate the problem so there is nothing to fix. This is something that needs to be Investigated before an accident occurs.

During dusk/dawn exterior lighting conditions, the informant screen is too dim to use. i.e. can't change drive mode to snow/ice, or locate any other controls.
