CADILLAC Complaints

Same issue in two class action lawsuits against GM: moisture entered the headlight casing which eroded the plating reflecting the light, resulting in dim headlights, unsafe to drive at night. We have had this issue for year, but managed to drive other cars at night. Now we need to drive this car at night for work. We have replaced the light bulbs. But the issue remains. GM said they sent letters to Cadillac SRX owners in California in 2020 as a result of the lawsuits. After I told the GM rep that I had never seen such letter, she said the best she could do was to take a note on my file. GM should recall the affected SRX’s and replace the headlights, as it is a safety issue.

I received a recall on my Cadillac SRX for a Rear Toe Link Separation Update issue. I had the repair completed at Plaza Cadillac in Leesburg, FL. This repair was completed on 03/11/2022. I have received multiple recall notices by text message, and Official Recall Notices about this work. I feel that there is gross incompetence somewhere in the system between the authorized dealer and GM and I have been unable to resolve this to stop the incorrect notices about a recall where the work has been completed. I feel that this is not only an inconvenience to receive these incorrect recall notices, but it is also a safety issue, because I could mistake a future recall issue about a problem with my vehicle and overlook it due to the incorrect notices that I have received and continue to receive.

With GM recall N212340980, the toe link was replaced with a nonadjustable toe link and thus it can not be aligned properly causing the tire to wear incorrectly and causing vibration in the wheels and suspension and also causing the vehicle to pull to the center into oncoming traffic. This is a huge safety issue, the vibration can cause the lug nuts to loosen and wheel to come off while at highway speeds. Now I have to pay to have the toe link to be replaced with an adjustable toe link to correctly align the wheels to end the problem caused by this recall. This has been confirmed by an independent service center. This issue was discovered when the lateral arms were replaced due to the bushing becoming worn and needing replaced.

Electric emergency brake light engaged engaged parking brake. Parking brake is unable to be disengaged with the control making the vehicle unable to move. Car is able to be put in drive, reverse and neutral but cannot move as the brakes are locked. Car is on the way to a dealership for them to look at it but without knowing what causes this or when it could be a safety concern to anyone driving or who needs to use their vehicle to get away.

Normal headlight illumination is insufficient and dangerous to see safely ahead. I must always use bright lights to see

Tire size 285/45r22 got into freeway this morning and the outer sidewall just separated on the lr tire no warning, tires looked good 7/32 tread left even wear and tire pressure was correct. The other tires look good on the outside but so did the one that came apart the car has tpms and the tires were never run low or had any repairs. The outside tread block at the sidewall peeled off the tire

The rear toe bar had a recall on it that was replaced. The replacement part is not adjustable. The back wheels are pointed out because of the rear tow bar not being able to be adjusted. This causes the car to pull side to side while driving on snow and ice. I can't go over 30 mph or the car loses control.

My back glass on my 2016 Cadillac ATS shattered on 3-10-2023. It looks like it got hot from the defroster lines as it shattered every inch of the back glass and separated from the seals. I contacted Cadillac and they started Case #9-9552142107. I had the car inspected at my dealership on 3-11-23. They filled out the report on this case number to support the findings of a current recall already in place. Recall date 2015-09-03 Recall no.15V558000 General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Cadillac ATS sedan vehicles manufactured April 23, 2012, to September 2, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the coil antenna module that powers the rear defogger system may generate excessive heat due to excessive cycling or continuous operation. When I contacted Cadillac they said I needed to contact NHTSA with the info to have my car put on the recall
