    My headlight assemblies would get condensation and cause the bulb to become dim or burn out. Had to replace bulbs several times but still difficult to see 20 ft in front of me when driving the dark roads in north west New Jersey. Was told it was a known issue and to drill holes in the back of the headlight, which I did not do since I didn't want to damage the assemblies. The cost to replace both assemblies would have cost me at least $2000.00 or more which I did not have. I replaced the assemblies with aftermarket ones and had them installed by my mechanic. I than received the letter from Cadillac that they would reimburse us. I filled the paperwork and sent all the documentation. Never hear back for months so I followed up and was told I was missing the vin # on the receipts. I resubmitted the documents with the vin # and again waited. Made 2 more calls one said it was bring processed and should get a check in 90 days the second told me it was still being processed. Waited again for my check and still nothing 2 more phone calls and the second one has now said it was declined. When I ask to speak to a supervisor I was told there was no one there. I asked for a phone # to call someone and again was told there was no # to be given. I kept trying to speak to someone and finally the women told me she was done with our phone call and hung up on me. I don't know what or who to speak with to get this resolved. I am out $1000.00 for a know safety issue. If I hadn't replaced my headlight assemblies I would not be able to drive my car at night. Please contact me and assist in any way possible. Thank you for your time and consideration in helping me

    a few months ago I started noticing a loud noise coming from the rear of my vehicle. Then my Service Traction Control light, Service Stabilitrak light, Service Rear Axle light, the Stabilitrak malfunction indicator lamp all come on my display screen. I took my tires to have them rotated and the rear tires were unevenly worn I was told. The other thing that is happening is that my steering wheel does not stay going straight, it veers off to the right.

    Windshield wipers stopped working while in rain storm. Motor was still running but the wiper transmission was disconnected from motor. My 2 year old grandson was in the car at time of failure. They were able to safely return home. This incident could have caused a serious accident.

    This Vehicle has a design flaw with sunroof which leaks water into the car from floor board passenger side. Sunroof Drain lines undersized even for a standard sized sunroof. As of result of this, the drain lines, at best are barely adequate for light rain and intense rain cloggs and rain enters the car. I have taken to dealer twice paid $651.00 repair and not fixed. Dealer should have correct information to repair the drain issue. Cadillac of Novi, Service Manager will not return phone calls. Very Poor service for a Luxury product.

    THE CAR IS SWAYING BACK AND FORTH AT SPEEDS ABOVE 50 MPH ON GOOD ROADS. HAD MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND HE SAID SHOCKS WERE GOOD AND EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. AFTER RESEARCHING ON INTERNET I FOUND THAT OTHERS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE REAR TOE LINK ADJUSTER. SO I LOOKED AT MINE AND FOUND IT LOOSE BUT THE NUT HAS NOT BACKED OFF. I THINK IT HAS RUSTED AND IS SLIPPING IN THE THREADS. I CAN SEND A VIDEO SHOWING HOW LOOSE IT IS WHEN I PUSH IT UP AND DOWN. IF YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT A PART LOOKS LIKE "BEFORE THE ACCIDENT" PLEASE CONTACT ME TOMORROW, APRIL 12, BEFORE I GET IT REPLACED. WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. YOU NEED TO SEE IT AS IS BECAUSE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE INVESTIGATING.
