2016 CADILLAC SRX Complaints

The contact owns a 2016 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the roadway became difficult to see. The contact stated that upon inspection, he noticed condensation inside the headlamp housings. As a result, the headlights became foggy. The dealer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was advised to take the vehicle to the dealer for a diagnostic test. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

Rear tires slip when pressing on the gas. The car is in for repair and they said the rear transfer case needed replaced. The car has 94000 miles and is 6 years old. This caused issues when accelerating.

The headlights are very dim. i cannot see at night without using my bright lights. This a safety issues because I cannot see and other cars cannot see me. On 12-28-21 I took the car to Jim Hudson dealership. The diagnose was both headlights are very dim. Reflective silver coating within headlamp assemblies has faded. Will require 2 new assemblies. This is my second 2016 SRX and I had the exact same problem with the headlights. I believe this is a manufacturer issue.

The contact owns a 2016 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, she could not see out of the rear window. Upon inspection, the contact discovered that condensation had accumulated on the inside of the rear window. The contact also discovered that he was unable to open the rear hatch from the outside and had to use a screwdriver to open the hatch. Once opened, he discovered that the spare tire and rear side compartments were all filled with water. The rear hatch module was also submerged in water which led to the hatch failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was given a case number. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was 21,000.

Head light on my 2016 SRX is getting water inside the lens and dimming and burning out the bulbs the temporary fix is to replace the whole light unit at a cost of 3000.00 with the same defective part that will re-create the issue at a later date. There needs to be a recall on this defected it is not the fault of the consumer and the consumer should not bear the expense of an factory default PP

The headlights are bad. Water gets in. A class action suit dismissed this defect that was also in previous years. This should be a recall. We are going to have to replace the headlights on our car because we can barely see at night.

Headlights The normal beam headlights are extremely dim, unable to operate the vehicle on the roadway at night. I had the bulbs replaced at an expense of $300 for parts and labor, which did not rectify the issue. The beams remain extremely dim, which is due to the faulty headlight assembly. GM has never acknowledge this issue after 1000's of complaints. GM did refund some owners of SRX 2010-2015 models for replacing the headlight assemblies, but failed to provide any resolution for owners of the 2016 - present models. If the vehicle must be operated at night, the only way to safety proceed is with the high beams, which doesn't provide for a safe environment for the other vehicles on the roadway. This must be addressed by GM, as people are risking their lives and the lives of others on the roadway. There were no prior warnings or indications of headlight failure. I first noticed this issue in 2021 and have been attempting to resolve it with GM since. GM comes across as it is not their problem and that I should get my headlights replaced at my own expense. What they don't understand is the replacement will be the same faulty make/model of the headlight assemblies I have today.

The low beams have gotten so dim that driving at night has become hazardous. Both the passenger and driver side lights are dim but the passenger side is the worst. The problem is internal to the headlamp assembly. Cleaning the outer lens has no effect. The high beams function fine but we can't drive with the high beams all of the time because they blind oncoming drivers. When the lights switch back to low beams, it is almost like switching the lights completely off.

The head lights aren’t working properly ,it’s so damped that I can’t see at night time, Dealer said there is no thing we can do . I can’t put my family at risk of crash or hitting something that I didn’t see because of the light was very low. Please help.

The contact owns a 2016 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that upon walking to the rear of the vehicle, he noticed that the rear tires were significantly bald and the tread belts were exposed. The contact stated that the failure occurred after the replacement of the rear adjustable toe links with a non-adjustable toe link under NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V473000 (Suspension). The dealer was notified of the issue but provided no assistance. The contact stated that it was a safety issue as he was not aware of the tire failure until he walked towards the rear vehicle.
