CADILLAC Complaints

WHEN I CALL ON STAR FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT WHEN I WAS TOLD THAT IF WAS IN AN ACCIDENT THE CAR AIR BAGS WOULD NOT PROTECT ME LIKE THEY WERE SUPPOSE TO.I WAS DRIVING TO THE NEXT TOWN OVER FROM MY HOMETOWN ON HWY 8O EAST.

WE PURCHASED A 2015 SRX CADILLAC MONDAY DEC 14 2020. WE HAD NOT DRIVEN IT AFTER DARK UNTIL WE PURCHASED. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM WE COULD BARELY SEE THE ROAD IN A WELL LIT HIGHWAY. WE WERE CONCERNED WE WOULD NOT MAKE IT HOME. THESE LIGHTS ARE A HAZARD AND IT'S VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AFTER DARK. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

THE NORMAL HEADLAMPS ON THE VEHICLE ARE EQUIVALENT TO A NIGHT LIGHT BULB. YOU CANNOT SEE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THE NORMAL HEADLIGHTS ON. APPARENTLY THERE WAS A LAW SUIT FOR THIS, BUT THERE WAS ONLY A CERTAIN TIME PERIOD TO HAVE THE ISSUE FIXED AND IT WAS A REIMBURSEMENT SITUATION WITH A HEFTY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AFTER THE FACT, NOT KNOWING OF THIS PROBLEM. I WAS ADVISED BY A GM REPRESENTATIVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM? IT WORKS, BUT OTHER DRIVERS ARE NOT HAPPY AS THEY FLASH THEIR LIGHTS AT US. WE HAVE NO OTHER SOLUTION, CANT SEE AND DONT HAVE THE $1600 WE WERE TOLD IT COSTS TO FIX THE ISSUE.

SERVICE DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEM ALERT WHILE DRIVING DEALER IS CONSULTING WITH CADILLAC ENGINEERING, BUT CAN'T FIGURE HOW TO FIX, BECAUSE NO CODE APPEARS - EVEN THOUGHT THE WARNING STILL APPEARS

OIL LEAK UNDER ENGINE COMING FROM ENGINE TRANSMISSION AND POWER PUMP. ALSO WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM ENGINE ON PASSENGER SIDE WHEN STOPPED ON DRIVEWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HI-BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE USED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE CONTACT THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CREST CADILLAC (6280 TX-121, FRISCO, TX 75034) WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VIN. THE CONTACT ALSO SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER WHO STATED THAT A LETTER WAS SENT OUT IN REGARDS TO THE HEADLIGHT HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. DUE TO THE NON-RESPONSE, THE CONTACT WAS GIVEN AN ESTIMATE FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER HAD YET TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THIS CADILLAC HAS A RECALL ON THE FRONT LIGHTS BECOMING VERY DIM DUE TO MOISTURE BUILD UP WITHIN THE LIGHTS. THEY BECOME DIM WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND GOING FROM HIGH BEAM TO LOW BEAM.

WHILE ARRIVING AT STOP LIGHTS THE CADDILLAC ROUGHLY SHIFTS DOWN JOLTING THE WHOLE VEHICLE. AROUND 1500 RPMS WHETHER ITS SITTING OR JUST PASSING 1500 RPMS THE WHOLE VEHICLE SHUTTERS AND VIBRATES AGGRESIVELY UNTIL AROUND 2000 RPM. RPMS JUMP UP AND DOWN BETWEEN 1000 AND 3000 RPMS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2012 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 65 MPH HIGHWAY WHILE RAINING THE VEHICLE HYDROPLAIN WHICH CAUSED THE CONTACT DAUGHTER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. AND CRASHED INTO MEDIUM IN THE ROAD WHERE ANOTHER VEHICLE HIT THE CONTACT DAUGHTER VEHICLE IN THE REAR. THE CONTACT STATED NO FRONT AND REAR AIR BAGS DEPLOYED IN THE VEHICLE. NO MEDICAL ATTENTION AT THE SCENE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACTS DAUGHTER DID GO TO THE HOSPITAL TWO DAYS AFTER THE FAILURE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THEN THE CONTACT INSURANCE HAD IT TOWED TO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AS A TOTALED LOSS. NOW THE CONTACT JUST RECEIVE A RECALL NOTIFICATION FROM THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER IN REFERENCE TO REAR SUSPENSION TOE ADJUSTER LINK BEING LOOSE AND NOW THE CONTACT FEEL THAT WAS THE CAUSED TO THE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME HIS DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING.THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 153,014.

THE LIGHTS ARE SO DIM, I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. READING THROUGH THE INTERNET, IT IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS IN MY MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE. IT COSTS $2,000 TO FIX HEADLIGHTS, WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS, WHEN CADILLAC IS AWARE OF THE ISSUES AND SAFETY HAZARDS! MY LIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY DIM AND LOOK AS THOUGH MY HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT EVEN ON AT NIGHT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR AT NIGHT, AND DUE TO COVID, WHO HAS $2,000 TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT ALL OF THESE VEHICLES ARE HAVING AND THAT CADILLAC ALREADY KNOWS ABOUT.
