2019 CADILLAC CTS- Bayville, NY
My 2019 CTS Cadillac CUE screen shattered for no reason. I was not driving the car. I went out to the car on Thursday, May 27, 2021 and the screen had shattered over night. The system is still working but it is hard to see the screen. The car is leased and only has 20,586 miles. I have only had it 2 years and 5 months. Is this my responsibility to repair or is it covered by warranty?

2015 CADILLAC ESCALADE- Colorado Springs, CO
Front shocks had to be replaced on our Cadillac 2015 Escalade. Right Front shock was leaking oil at 81K miles, repair 26 March, Red Noland Cadillac, CO. Informed service associate at the time, and then worked with the Service Manager after that. The Service Manager informed me of the GM service number I could call 1-800-333-4233 for customer service/good will request. At that number, Julia with GM stated the call needed to be done PRIOR to the repair, supervisor assist was requested but not made available. I've owned several GM products, and appreciated the quality and responsiveness to service issues. I hope GM can do better, and restore my faith in GM quality. During BBB process, GM avoided the issue(s) of their maintenance process and the shock absorber being outside of normal failure rates. Shocks failing/leaking oil at this age are well outside 'normal' expectations and points to a recall issue.

2016 CADILLAC SRX- Chattanooga, TN
The headlights are not bright enough they've never been bright enough it's almost like you don't have any headlights at night time if it's dark out. I even change them out once and it's like there wasn't enough power to them to make them bright. I have not very good Vision at night and I can't even really drive the car at night unless it's in the city. A couple of people I have told me they had the same problem with the headlights and even the guy at the auto place told me that his wife had the same car and he changed her headlights and it was still bad so he changed them back and that's exactly what I did. Hardly usable at all at night I wish there was something they could do or find out if there is a flaw in the design because everyone I've talked to that has this year and type of car says the same exact thing and no one has given me any resolution on what they did they just lived with it. I love the car 100% in every other way but the headlights are a incredible Factor for night driving and since I do live somewhat in the country I always have to take the other vehicle at night time.
