CADILLAC Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 CADILLAC DEVILLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH FAILED TO START THE VEHICLE AND THE KEY WAS HARD TO REMOVE FROM THE IGNITION. IN ADDITION, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED UPON ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, WHICH WAS A SAFETY CONCERN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE WHERE AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT A SECURITY MODULE FAILED AND THERE WAS A DISCONNECTION OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO VININGS ENTERPRISES INC. (904 N TENNESSEE ST, CARTERSVILLE, GA 30120, (770) 382-2007), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

CRUISE CONTROL SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. CRUISE CONTROL AND SPEED ODOMETER HAS DIFFERENT READINGS. 7 MILES DIFFERENT IN READING.

RIGHT AFTER PURCHASE, THE NAV SCREEN KEPT FLICKERING, CAUSING A DISTRACTED DRIVER SITUATION AND A HAZARD. THE DEALER DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD PER GM GUIDELINES, BUT EVEN AFTER THE 1ST SERVICE VISIT, THE CAR WOULD SHUT DOWN IN DRIVE MODE, AS THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHUT OFF USING THE POWER OFF BUTTON. GM IS TELLING THE DEALER, THE NAV FLICKERING SCREEN IS NOT A SAFETY HAZARD, HOWEVER I BEG TO DIFFER IF EVERY 2 MINS, A DRIVER IS FIXATED, FOCUSED ON THE SCREEN MORE SO THAN ON THE ROAD, WHICH HAS CAUSED ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD A FEW TIMES. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND ELECTRICAL CONCERN THAT GM DOES NOT SEEM TO CARE ABOUT EVEN AFTER 60+ DAYS AT THE DEALERSHIP.

TAKATA RECALL. SERVICE STABILATRAK CHECK ENGINE CODE P011 HAD EVERYTHING DONE AND NOW DEALER SAYS MUST REPLACE ENGINE. I HAVE REPLACED CAMSHAFT CRANKSHAFT AND ALSO THE S NOSES. STILL P011 CODE!!THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL CAR OIL PRESSES ISSUES. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE!!I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE AIR BAG IN SEPTEMBER 2016 I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALER AND HAVE NO PARTS TO THE RECALL YET ALMOST 2 YEARS

ONCE YOU BRAKE IT STAYS APPLIED , BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON, THE BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT RAISE ONCE YOU BRAKE BUT IT STAYS APPLIED, THAT WAY CAR DOES NOT GET APPROPRIATE SPEED BUT IT BRAKES ITSELF.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC ESCALADE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. FAULKNER CADILLAC TREVOSE (4447 E STREET RD, FEASTERVILLE-TREVOSE, PA 19053, (866) 722-7910) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WERE NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO BAD DRIVE CAN NOT SEE UNLESS HIGH BEAMS ARE ON. ONCOMING DRIVERS CAN NOT SEE THE AUTO AT NIGHT. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. WAS TOLD BY CADILLAC IT WOULD BE $200 OR MORE TO REPLACE THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS. ALMOST COLLIDED HEAD ON INTO ANOTHER CAR ON THE TACONIC PARKWAY COULD NOT SEE WHERE THE ROAD WAS AT NIGHT

2007 CADILLAC STS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE COMPOSITE HEADLAMPS. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY WOULD FOG UP. THERE WAS TWO INCHES OF WATER BUILT UP IN THE ASSEMBLY DUE TO CONDENSATION. *JS

APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS AGO, MY 2010 CADILLAC SRX STARTED VIBRATING SHUTTERING WHEN DOWN SHIFTING BETWEEN 20-25 MPH. I TOOK INTO DEALER WHO STATED NEEDS NEW TRANSMISSION AT 84K MILES. JUST TODAY, IT STARTED VIBRATING HARD DOWN SHIFTING AT 40 MPH. I HAD TRACTION CONTROL ISSUES AROUND 61K MILES WHICH WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, SENSOR FAILURES, SUSPENSION AND ACCUMULATOR FAILURE AT 66K MILES AND A/C ACTUATOR FAULTY AT 48K MILES. MOST REPAIRS ON ANY VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED AND THIS IS GMA TOP OF THE LINE.

UNSAFE DEFECTED HEADLIGHTS. TODAY, I HAD A TECH AT CLAUDE NOLAN CADILLAC JACKSONVILLE, FL CHECK THE HEADLIGHTS AND THE CUE-SYSTEM ON MY 2013 SRX MODEL. THE TECH-ADVISER INFORMED ME THAT I NEED HEADLAMPS THAT COST $1200 EACH AND THREE DOWNLOADS TO FIX THE CUE TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM ISSUE. WHAT? THESE ISSUES ARE WELL DOCUMENTED AS ONGOING ISSUES. WHY ARE WE...THE CUSTOMERS ADDRESSING GENERAL MOTORS (GM) NOTED DEFECT/ISSUE SURROUNDING THE SRX 2013 MODEL? I WILL USE SOCIAL MEDIA TO INFORM FOLKS AND POTENTIAL BUYERS TO BEWARE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE. GM IS NOT BEING ACCOUNTABLE NOR RESPONSIBLE. THE SRX 2013 MODEL IS AN UNSAFE VEHICLE DUE TO THEIR HEADLIGHTS: A RECALL IS NEEDED FOR THIS DEFECT (THAT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO). BUYERS BEWARE OF ANY OTHER GM-CADILLAC MODELS; NOT TO MENTION THE CADILLAC-CUE SYSTEM EXPERIENCE THAT FREEZE OR CYCLE AUTOMATICALLY WITHOUT TOUCH. AS A CONSUMER, I SUPPORTED GM-AMERICAN CARS (NOT AFTER THIS). REMEMBER GM, YOU CAN MEASURE LOST REVENUE.
