  • 2012 CADILLAC SRX
    - Hibbing, MN

    I received a recall from GM as to the toe links in my vehicle. On November 4th it went into the dealership to have the parts replaced and the following morning my car lost control when something happened between the tires and the steering which caused my car to swerve all over the road, lose control, flip and go into a ditch. There were 3 warning lights on, ABS, traction, and Stabilitrak. The car has not yet been inspected but will be. Thank God it happened around 5:30 a.m. when there were not a lot of cars out yet on the highway.

  • 2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE
    - Union City, GA

    The airbag system failed and was reported the first time in 2020 and it was available for inspection upon request by owner but Cadillac said it wasn't a recall and refused to comply. My safety and the other passenger was put at risk because Cadillac didn't inspect the the fail system upon the owner's upon the owner's first request that caused serious injuries and the vehicle has been in another incident. The airbag system has not been fixed, body, and light damages to be reproducted or confirmes by a dealer or independent service center for my case 9-7027849113. The vehicle has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representative, or others. There wasn't any warning lamps, or other symptoms prior to the failure and they first appeared in the last incident on April 23, 2021.
