MY STABILIZER TRACK/ABS LIGHT CAME ON BUT BEFORE IT DID MY CAR WAS DRIVING ABOUT 20 MILES EVEN THOUGH I HAD MY FOOT DOWN ON THE GAS. THEN IT JUMPS INTO MOVING FAST. THE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF, SO WHEN IT'S OFF THE CAR WON'T MOVE IT DRAGS THEN IT JUMPS BUT WHEN THE STABILIZER TRACK/ABS LIGHT COMES BACK ON IT DOESN'T DO THIS. I CHECKED RECALLS AND IT SAYS MY VEHICLE DOESN'T HAVE ANY BUT WHO KNOWS IF THIS HAS BEEN FIXED IMPROPERLY BEFORE. I WAS DRIVING AND CARS WERE BEEPING THEN WHEN IT JUMPED I ALMOST HIT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME.

THE SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT COMES ON FREQUENTLY, THE TRANSMISSION WILL FEEL LIKE IT IS NOT ENGAGING & @ TIMES THE CAR WILL HAVE PRE-IGNITION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE.

THE DRIVER SIDE HEAD LIGHT IS SIGNIFICANTLY DIMMER THAN THE PASSENGER SIDE MAKING NIGHT TIME DRIVING ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. WE REPLACED THE BULB WITH TOP OF THE LINE ONE, AND WHEN THAT DID FIX THE PROBLEM, WE RETURNED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM SERVICE IT. WE PICKED THE CAR UP AFTER THEY ALSO REPLACED THE BULB BUT THEY SAID FOR US TO CALL A CADILLAC DEALERSHIP TO FURTHER HELP US. THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY EXACT MODEL AND INFOR.ED US THAT WE SHOULD BE RECEIVING A LETTER IN THE MAIL WITH FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS, BUT WE AS OF TODAY, HAVE NOT RECEIVED.

HEADLIGHTS CONSTANTLY FOGGY ON INSIDE. BULB BRIGHTNESS INADEQUATE FOR NIGHT TIME DRIVING. DANGEROUS! *TR

WATER LEAKS THROUGH FRONT DRIVER SEAL TUBES. WHEN STATIONARY THE FLOOR GETS FLOODED WITH WATER. BEING LEAKING AS LONG AS I HAVE HAD THE CAR 2016 AUGUST. *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM YOU CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT. ALREADY PUT IN NEW BULBS. WE JUST BOUGHT THE CAR ON 5/5/2020. *TR

I WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND OPENED THE DOOR AND FOUND ABOUT 3 INCHES OF WATER ON BOTH THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGER SIDE. I FELT THE SIDE PANELS, UNDER DASH, TOP OF DASH, HEADLINER, WINDOWS AND ALL WERE DRY. THE SEATS AND THE MIDDLE COLUMN COMPARTMENT FELT DAMP. I LOOKED ONLINE AND FOUND THERE WERE COMPLAINTS OF THE DRAIN TUBES LEAKING. AS THE WEEK WENT ON I NOTICED THE CAR WAS STARTING TO GET MOLD. IT GOT SO BAD I COULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE IT WAS MAKING ME ILL WITH BREATHING ISSUES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD HIM IT WAS LEAKING AND THAT I RESEARCHED A BIT AND FOUND THAT THEY HAD ISSUES WITH THE TUBES AND HE SAID THEY WOULD NEED TO KEEP IT OVERNIGHT AND WOULD CHECK IT AND LET ME KNOW. HE CALLS THE NEXT DAY AND SAYS IT LOOKS LIKE ITS COMING FROM THE ROOF THEY WOULD NEED TO TAKE OFF THE HEADLINER AND PERFORM A LEAK CHECK TO VERIFY IF THAT WAS THE CAUSE. HE GAVE ME ANOTHER ESTIMATE THAT WAS TO INCLUDE THE VERIFYING AND LEAK TEST AND REPLACING THE SEATBELTS AND FRONT RUG FOR $6000 AND SUGGESTS I START AN INSURANCE CLAIM.I TELL HIM TO NOT TAKE THE HEADLINER OFF AND I WOULD CHECK INTO THE INSURANCE . WHEN I PICK IT UP HE HANDS ME AN ESTIMATE THAT ENDS UP ALMOST $8000.00! THEY HAD MY CAR OVERNIGHT AND DID NOTHING AND CHARGED ME $300 FOR LABOR! I TRY TO TURN IT IN TO INSURANCE AND THEY REJECT IT BECAUSE HE TELLS THEM HE DIDN'T ACTUALLY VERIFY THE LEAK EVEN THOUGH HE CHARGED ME. SO I AM STUCK WITH! THATS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE! MY CAR IS ACTUALLY KILLING ME SITTING IN IT. I COULD NEVER REPLACE THE VEHICLE AT THE PRICE I ORIGINALLY PAID NOR CAN I SELL IT OR HOPE TO GET ANY VALUE FROM IT TO GET ANOTHER CAR. IT HAS ONLY 71,000 MILES ON IT. A $45000 CAR THAT IS BASICALLY WORTHLESS NOW! *TR
