CADILLAC Complaints

On July 28th 2024 my wife backed the vehicle out of the garage and the vehicle locked out the steering wheel. The cluster and gauges went completely out. The vehicle did not start or turn on after that point. It was no longer drivable as we could no longer start the vehicle. The vehicle had to be towed to Penske Cadillac of Torrance where it took them a week to diagnose the vehicle. The vehicle fuse box went out which locked out the steering wheel if my wife would of been driving the vehicle she would of been involved in a major accident. The problem was confirmed by the dealer a new fuse box was installed. I have the fuse box here as I requested it to follow up with the NHTSA. There was no warning that the vehicle had any malfuncitons. All electircal componenets and steering went out suddenly and abruplty.

My cameras are not working properly and have stopped working completely, I have seen online that theses car have problems like this and have recalls and my car has the same problem now but it’s says it’s not under a recall

Vehicle is automatically braking at low speeds when there is no reason to do so. It is as if the vehicle thinks something is there but there is nothing there

It happened two times to me I was driving and I lost acceleration power. I put the car on Park and back to drive and it still didn't help the only way to get it to drive is to restart the car

Vehicle engage emergency stop in forward direction for no apparent reason. Leaving dead stop 2nd car at traffic signal. Huge problem as may cause rear end collision. I have disengaged all auto brake features. Had previously already disabled reverse auto braking feature. I was at a residential intersection. Single lane each direction with left turn lane. I was the 2nd vehicle in line. There was a crosswalk however there were no pedestrians, bicycles, etc. in the crosswalk or on any sidewalks of roadways. The left turn green arrow illuminated and the vehicle in front began turning. I began to follow and reached no more than 5-10 mph when "bang", the emergency stop engaged. I actually thought I hit a pole or object. Terrifying for my wife in the passenger seat also. The vehicle behind us was able to stop in time, this time. However, drivers do not expect the vehicle in front of them to begin moving the emergency brake for no reason. This is a dangerous defect which must be addressed.

The contact owns a 2024 Cadillac Lyric. The contact stated that the brakes erroneously activated while attempting to reverse. The contact stated that the failure occurred only while it was raining. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and it was suggested to deactivate the Back Over Prevention and Cross Traffic Alerts while attempting to reverse. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure by the dealer. The failure mileage was 145.

Driving my car on the highway at speeds of about 65, and the charging port door suddenly opens. When I slow down then the door closes on it own. Seems like the housing for the door isnt made tight enough to stay closed during highway driving.

When approaching a stopping vehicle the brake pedal became extremely hard to press and I could not brake enough to stop and had a collision. Come to find out that the ABS computer and the main ECU weren't communicating correctly which turned off the assisted braking, assisted steering and the AWD.

We encountered consistent loss of or erratic headlight operation. The behavior was that lighting would simply fail on one or both sides of the car, often along two-lane roads with curves in the road where it is critical to judge distance to oncoming traffic. Other times the lights would dim and wash out the ability to clearly see the road ahead. The dealer has replaced the headlights three times already. An associated lighting module was also replaced more than once. Note that this issue is still present so we are unable to use the vehicle now after dark.
