2007 CADILLAC SRX Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IN ADDITION, THE POWER STEERING WAS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AND THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES WOULD LOCK WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE HAD BEEN VARIOUS WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATING AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE HEARD COMING FROM THE AREA OF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

I'M HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES, I CALLED GM AND THEY VERIFIED NO RECALLS WERE ON THIS MODEL, I HAVE HAD 3 TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED AND NOW FOUND OUT THAT I HAVE TO HAVE ANOTHER TRANSMISSION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC SRX. ON EACH SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, THERE WERE AIR DISTRIBUTION UNITS. EACH UNIT, OUTLINED IN A SILVER COMPONENT, PRODUCED A GLARE AND REFLECTION THAT AFFECTED VISIBILITY IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR. IN ADDITION, THE GLARE IMPACTED THE CONTACT'S VISION WHILE LOOKING THROUGH THE REARVIEW AND FRONT MIRRORS. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT PROVIDE A REPAIR SOLUTION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,600.

I DISCOVERED FLUID LEAKING UNDER THE VEHICLE AND A BANGING, LOUD NOISE WAS PRESENT WHEN SHIFTING TO 1ST GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL GASKET WAS RUPTURED. I CALLED THE GMC DEALER IN COSTA MESA, CA AND I WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V589000 (POWER TRAIN), EVEN IF THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65-70,000M. PLEASE HELP ME SINCE THE DEALER SAID IS NOT THEIR RESPONSABILITY, BECAUSE BASED ON THE VIN NUMBER, THIS CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE RECALL STARTED ON DEC.20, 2007, SO I'M ALMOST 100% THAT MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT BEFORE THAT DAY IN THE YEAR OF 2007. PLEASE HELP ME SINCE THIS NOISE IS SO LOUD AND THE BANGING IS SO POWERFULL, THAT MY KIDS ALWAYS THINK THAT I HIT OR SOMEBODYELSE HIT OUR CAR.

TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE A, SERVICE AIRBAG, WARNING THAT HAS COME ON FOR THE SECOND TIME. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A CAR DOING THIS. IS THIS NORMAL? THE FIRST TIME IT CAME ON AND WENT OFF THE SAME DAY, NOW IT HAS BEEN ON A WEEK.

I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THIS SHOP TWICE NOW FOR MY TIMING. THEY CLAIM THEY HAVE REPAIRED IT TWICE & ALSO REPLACED A VARIABLE VALVE TIMING SOLENOID. ALMOST 3,000.00. ONCE AGAIN IT QUIT WORKING MONTHS AGO. HAD IT TOWED TO ANOTHER MECHANIC & WHEN DIAGNOSED, IT WENT BACK TO THE TIMING CHAINS FOR THE 3RD TIME IN LESS THAN A YEAR. MY MECHANIC WENT ON LINE & INFORMED ME CADILLAC HAS HAS A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE TIMING ON THEIR CARS. PLS HELP. I AM DISABLED & I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS CAR. WHEN I WAS DRIVING IT THIS LAST TIME, THE CAR WOULD SPEED UP ON ITS OWN WHICH WAS VERY SCARY FOR ME. WHEN I GOT TO MY DESTINATION A MILE UP THE ROAD IT DIED. I TRIED TO START IT & IT WOULD START BUT WOULDN'T TURN OVER. WHEN I LET GO OF THE KEY IT STAYED ON & KEPT TRYING TO START ON ITS OWN, LIKE I HAD THE KEY TURNED. IT DID SHUT OFF FINALLY WHEN I TURNED IT OFF. AFTER THE MECHANIC AT CABLES FIXED THE TIMING THE FIRST TIME, I WAS INFORMED IF I DIDN'T REPLACE THE VARIABLE VALVE TIMING SOLENOID, HE COULD NOT GUARANTEE THE TIMING AGAIN SO I PAID TO HAVE THAT DONE AS WELL. THIS ALL STARTED 7-24-14 & HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OFF & ON SINCE THEN. I RECENTLY LOST MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER & AM DISABLED SO MY TRANSPORTATION IS EVERYTHING TO ME & I CAN'T KEEP PAYING FOR THIS TIMING SINCE I AM NOW PAYING FOR FUNERAL EXPENSES ALONG WITH MANY OTHER RELATED EXPENSES. PLS PLS HELP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V589000 (POWER TRAIN) THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

CAR STARTED RATTLEING WHEN FIRST STARTING. SHORTLY AFTER MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT WAS RUNNING ROUGH ALL THE TIME THEN. BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT IT'S THE TIMING CHAIN. SUPER EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE AND PER. FORUMS LOOKS LIKE TONS OF PEOPLE WITH THE 2006 SRX HAD THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. NOTHING BUT CONSTANT REPAIR BILLS WITH THIS CROSSOVER. I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT COULD BREAK AT ANY TIME FROM BEING LOOSE. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED.

FRAME RUSTED THROUGH ON BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES. SERVICE MANAGER MADE COMMENT THAT FRAME RUSTED THROUGH FROM THE INSIDE OF FRAME RAIL. CADILLAC WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIRS. ALSO INCLUDES RUSTING OF FUEL LINES NEXT TO FRAME.
