CADILLAC Complaints

ON THE INTERSTATE (I-74 IN INDIANA) TRAVELING AT 70MPH THE REAR TOE LINK BROKE. MY CAR SWAYED TERRIBLY BACK AND FORTH AND ALMOST SPUN OUT COMPLETELY. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO A REPAIR SHOP (NOT CADILLAC) RIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY. THEY SAID THE REAR TOE LINK WAS BROKEN AND THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM. WHEN I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER CADILLAC SAID BACK IN 2015 (BEFORE I OWNED THE VEHICLE) THERE WAS A RECALL AND THE TOE LINKS WERE "ADJUSTED". CLEARLY THE PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED. IF THERE WERE ANY OTHER CARS EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE TO ME THIS COULD HAVE HAD DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES. THE CAR IS NOW IN THE SHOP (AT SOME RANDOM SHOP IN INDIANA) GETTING FIXED BUT CADILLAC HAS SAID THEY WILL NOT COVER THE REPAIR COST. I DO NOT HAVE ANY DOCUMENTATION YET BUT WILL PROVIDE IT ONCE THE CAR IS FIXED.

I HAVE SEVERAL RECALLS THAT WERE NOT DONE TO MY VEHICLE. I MOVED AROUND ALOT AND WHEN I ASKED THE DEALER, THEY SAID NO. I FOUND OUT THAT I PAID FOR SOME OF MY RECALLS INCLUDING THE LATEST ONE WITH MY HEADLIGHTS/ HEADLAMPS. THEY HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE FOR MANY YEARS WITH WATER, MOISTURE, THE DEALERSHIP SAID WEAR AND TEAR , NOT SO, FAULTY FROM ALL THE COMPLAINTS WORLD-WIDE. I HAD PURCHASED MY VEHICLE STRAIGHT UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP IN 2011. I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY DRIVER AND OWNER OF MY VEHICLE. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME RECOVER ALL THE RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE SO MY CAR CAN GET FIXED. THANKS AGAIN IN ADVANCED.

POWER STEERING ASSIST HAS FAILED ON 2 OCCASIONS. THE FIRST IN LATE JAN. 2021, WITH APPROX 2000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER, AND THE SECOND ON 30 APRIL 2021. ON THE FIRST OCCASION, THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING ASSIST AT START-UP AFTER STOPPING FOR FUEL. THE SECOND WAS WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX. 40 MPH. THE OPERATOR WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, OUT OF TRAFFIC SAFELY. ON BOTH OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCE WAS VERY HEAVY MANUAL STEERING; AND THE SHORT-TERM REMEDY WAS TO POWER OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTART AFTER 5 OR SO MINUTES TO CONTINUE TRAVELING WITHOUT ISSUE. ON THE FIRST OCCASION, DEALER SERVICE FOUND NO ERROR CODES. TECHNICIAN SCANNED PROGRAMMING FOR 'PSCM' WITH 'SPS' AND FOUND AN UPDATE TO ADDRESS THE REPORTED ISSUE. TECHNICIAN REPROGRAMMED THE POWER STEERING MODULE W 'SPS'. THE VEHICLE WILL BE SERVICED ON 3 MAY 2021 FOR THE SECOND EPISODE.

COMPLETE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE DUE TO BRAKE LINE LEAK DUE TO INFERIOR BRAKE LINES

MY HEADLIGHTS WERE NEEDING REPLACEMENT AS THEY WERE TOO DIM TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST IT SO THEY SENT OUT LETTERS TO GET REPLACED AND THEY WOULD REIMBURSE. THE LIGHTS WERE ON BACK ORDER AND DUE TO COVID IT COMPLICATED THINGS EVEN MORE. WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS FINALLY CAME IN CADILLAC WILL NOT REIMBURSE. THERE IS ALSO AN ISSUE WITH THE CUE. IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL AND CADILLAC WILL NOT RECALL IT

THE GAS FUEL TANK CONTINUOUSLY STOPS EVERY TIME YOU ARE PUMPING GAS. SO IT TAKES VERY LONG TO FILL UP THE TANK. MY CENTER ELECTRICAL SCREEN FOR THE RADIO, BLUETOOTH, ETC DOESN'T WORK. I PAID EXTRA FOR THE FEATURE AND IT DOESN'T WORK.
