2013 CADILLAC SRX Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM. THE POOR ILLUMINATION NEARLY CAUSED A FEW CRASHES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RENICK CADILLAC (1100 S EUCLID ST, FULLERTON, CA 92832) WHERE THEY RECOMMENDED CHANGING THE ENTIRE HEAD LAMP ASSEMBLIES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE EXTREMELY DIM AND THE BRIGHTNESS GRADUALLY REDUCED. THE FAILURE MADE IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE CONTACT CALLED RITCHEY CADILLAC (LOCATED AT 932 N NOVA RD 101, DAYTONA BEACH, FL 32117, 386-675-1019) AND INFORMED THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000. *LN *JS

THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY DIMMED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT TO A POINT WHERE IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I INSTALLED NEW BULBS TWICE, AND IT DIDN'T HELP.

DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT SEAL THAT ALLOWS MOISTURE TO CORRODE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. THE MOISTURE CAUSES CONDENSATION THAT LEAVES THE HEADLIGHTS PRACTICALLY USELESS. I HAVE A 3 YR OLD AND A NEWBORN AND THIS CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE THEM IN AT NIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2013 CADILLAC SRX ARE SO DIM THAT THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE OPERATED SAFELY AT NIGHT. I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT BOTH HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY'S NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF 1,250, AS THEY ARE DEFECTIVE AND SIMPLY REPLACING THE BULBS WILL NOT REMEDY THE LOW LIGHT OUTPUT. GM IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE WITH THE DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT COMPONENTS AND HAS SETTLED LAWSUITS IN FLORIDA AND CALIFORNIA. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOT ONLY IN FLORIDA AND CALIFORNIA BUT IN ALL 50 STATES THAT SHOULD BE REMEDIED WITH A RECALL AND REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS WHERE APPROPRIATE. FAILURE OCCURRED PRIOR TO 70,000 MILES.

TOUCH SCREEN(CUE) STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. I CANNOT CHANGE HEATING AND COOLING LISTEN TO RADIO OR ANY OF THE OTHER FUNCTIONS THAT THE TOUCHSCREEN OFFERS. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM CONSUMERS OF THIS MAKE AND MODEL CONCERNING THE CUE BEING DEFECTIVE. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED WHICH I WILL PUT PUT MY NAME ON. MY DEALER THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM DIDN'T EVEN ATTEMPT TO DO ANYTHING ALL THEY SAID WAS "IT'S NOT WORKING AND YOU NEED TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP THAT HANDLES CADILLACS." I HAVE READ THE COST CAN BE ANYWHERE FROM 1200 TO 1500 DOLLARS TO FIX AND THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR. VERY DISAPPOINTING!

LOW BEAMS ARE UNUSABLE. HAVE BEEN DIM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR USED, BUT ESPECIALLY APPARENT & DANGEROUS THREE NIGHTS AGO COMING HOME LATE AT NIGHT, RAINING, NO MOON. I COULD HARDLY SEE AND HAD TO KEEP HIGH BEAMS ON WHICH GOT A LOT OF LIGHT FLASHES FROM ONCOMING TRAFFIC. HAD TO SWITCH TO LOW BEAMS MORE THAN SAFETY WARRANTED. DRIVING WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND IF NOT FOR THE REFLECTORS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY I WOULD HAVE HAD TO STOP DRIVING.

HEADLIGHTS FAILED DURING NIGHT DRIVE ON CITY STREET. I WAS ALERTED BY A PASSING NEIGHBOR. I CHECKED THE LIGHTS AT HOME AND FOUND THAT THEY WERE OPERATING BUT WITH SO LITTLE LIGHT THAT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE GM DEALER TO HAVE THEM INSPECTED. DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THEY WERE DEFECTIVE AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE LIGHTING AND THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAD TO BE ENGAGED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COASTAL CHEVROLET (559 OCEAN HWY, SUITE 1, PAWLEYS ISLAND, SC 29585) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000. *DL

HEADLIGHTS CONTINUE TO GET SO MUCH CONDENSATION THAT THE BULB AND THE CONTROLLER MALFUNCTION AND THE LIGHTS WILL NOT COME ON UNTIL THE UNITS DRY OUT EITHER OVER TIME OR ARE MANUALLY REMOVED TO DRY OUT INDOORS. THE DEALER STATES CONDENSATION IS NORMAL AND THE LAWSUIT THAT OFFERED REDRESS WAS ONLY FOR VEHICLES SOLD IN TWO STATES AND MY STATE IS NOT INCLUDED. THE FIX IS TO REPLACE WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE DESIGNED LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE FRONT PASSENGER SEATBELT GETS STUCK AND MUST BE UNBUCKLED IN ORDER TO ADJUST. CURRENTLY THE DRIVERS SEATBELT FUNCTIONS AS DESIGNED WITH NO ISSUE.
