CADILLAC Complaints

FRIEND WAS DRIVING MY CAR AT THE NORMAL SPEED LIMIT AND THE CAR CUT OFF. WHEN THE CAR CUT OFF A CAR HIT HER FROM THE SIDE WHICH CAUSED THE CAR TO SPIN OUT OF CONTROL AND HIT ANOTHER CAR! THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED AND SHE WAS HURT BADLY. THE KEY IGNITION RECALL FOR THE 2003 CADILLAC SAID THAT IT WILL CAUSE THE CAR KEY TO SHIFT AND COULD CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE HER NECK AND SHOULDER AND FOOT GOT INJURED VERY BADLY BECAUSE THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY!......UPDATED 01/12/15*BF *TR

I STARTED UP THE CAR LAST NIGHT, AND "SERVICE AIRBAG" CAME UP ON MY DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER. IT HAS NOT GONE AWAY SENSE. WITH ALL THESE AIR BAG RECALLS, IS THAT ONE THAT WOULD BE INCLUDED? *TR

2008 CADILLAC CTS CAR ACCELERATED. *MW THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE, WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED JUMPING OVER THE SIDEWALK. THE ONLY THING FOR HIM TO DO, WAS TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION. HE WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE BACK ON THE PAVEMENT. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. ONE YEAR LATER, AS THE CONSUMER WAS APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP AND KEPT ACCELERATING. HE MANAGED TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. HOWEVER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. *JB

THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN THE CADILLAC SEEMS TO HAVE A LOT OF ISSUES AND BRINGS A LOT OF CONCERNS TO ME, ESPECIALLY IN TRANSPORTING FAMILY MEMBERS. FIRST THE NAVIGATION SCREEN WILL SPUTTER AND START SPORADICALLY FLASHING ON AN OFF, SECOND THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEELS WILL RANDOMLY STOP WORKING, THIRD THE WINDOWS WILL NOT CLOSE OR WHEN OPENED THEY WILL CLOSE AND THEN REOPEN AUTOMATICALLY MULTIPLE TIMES, FOURTH THE ABS/TRACTION CONTROL/STABILITRACK SEEMS TO HAVE LEVELS OF ERROR WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN MORE OF. THE WINDOW OF THE VEHICLE WHEN BADGING OUT AT WORK WOULD NOT CLOSE, IT WAS RAINING AND I BADGED OUT THEN WHEN CLOSING IT JUST REOPENED, THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 7 TIMES BEFORE I STOPPED THE CAR AS WATER WAS COMING IN, I KEPT TRYING TO CLOSE THE WINDOWS AND ANOTHER CAR HIT THE BRAKES BEHIND ME CAUSING THE LADY TO HAVE SOME BACK PAIN (THIS RANDOMLY CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM). ALSO THE TCS/ABS STABILITRACK SEEMS TO BE MALFUNCTIONING, WHEN I TURN MORE THEN 20 DEGREES IT WILL KICK ON AND START TO APPLY BRAKE BY ITSELF AND THE CAR STARTS JERKING WHICH BRINGS CONCERNS. I CALLED GM AND THEY SEEMED TO DISREGARD MY CLAIMS HOWEVER I BELIEVE ALL THESE "DEFECTS" AND "BUGS" ARE RELATED AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO PREVENT A MORE DIRE ISSUES IN THE RESULT OF ACCIDENT OF IMPACT. IT BRINGS A LOT OF CONCERN. *TR

CAR CONSUMED SO MUCH OIL THAT TIMING CHAIN TENSIONERS CAUSED TIMING CHAINS ISSUES THAT CAUSED CAR TO STOP RUNNING. *TR

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT INDICATING THAT PASSENGER AIR BAG IS IN NEED OF MAINTENANCE. ADVISED BY PINE BELT CADILLAC THAT THERE MAY BE A MALFUNCTION AND THEY SAID THEY CLEANED THE CONNECTORS. THE WARNING CODE #B0014 APPEARED AGAIN IN NOVEMBER INDICATING THAT THE CONNECTION AT THE AIR BAG HAD A POOR CONNECTION, AT WHICH TIME I RESPONDED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE CANISTER AT A COST TO ME OF $608.00. THE SERVICE PERSON SAID THAT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WOULD NOT FUNCTION UNLESS THIS WAS CORRECTED. THE DIAGNOSTICS ALONE WERE $116.00. THIS IS RELATED TO SAFEST EQUIPMENT AND I FEEL IT SHOULD NOT BE A COST TO ME FOR REPLCEMENT AND OR REPAIRS. *TR
