CADILLAC Complaints

THE ENGINE TURNED OFF AND I LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. THE ENGINE RESTARTED OK AFTER THE INCIDENT. *JS

THERE IS A P008 CODE THAT ONSTAR DETECTED AND SAID I MAY HAVE ENGINE PROBLEMS. THIS WOULD ENABLE THE CAR TO HAVE PERFORMANCE ISSUES. I CALLED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY WANT ME TO PAY TO HAVE ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE AND DOES NOT WANT TO REPAIR MY CAR WHICH I THINK THEY SHOULD BECAUSE MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE 100,000 MILES ON IT. THERE SHOULD NOT BE ENGINE PROBLEMS WITH A CAR THAT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 100,000 MILES YET. *JS

STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER FOR APPROXIMATELY 2 SECONDS AND THEN THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. CAR WOULD NOT RESTART.

TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. THEY REPORTED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS A ENGINE CONTROL MODULE WIRING HARNESS THAT HAD BEEN FRAYED BY THE DRIVE SHAFT RESULTING IN A NUMBER OF ENGINE FAULTS. *JS
