CADILLAC Complaints

TAKATA RECALL, I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY AIRBAG REPLACED FOR OVER A YEAR. I'M WORRIED BECAUSE MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT IS NOW ON. THE DEALERSHIP INITIALLY TOLD ME THAT THEY RAN OUT OF AIRBAGS. NOW THEY'RE TELLING THERE'S BEEN AN APPEAL AND I HAVE TO WAIT.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CADILLAC ESCALADE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART FOR THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

BOTH HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING 75 MPH DOWN A MAJOR HIGHWAY. I HAD TO USE BLINKERS TO SEE LINE. THERE WAS VERY NOTICEABLE CONDENSATION/MOISTURE IN BOTH HEADLIGHTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS). NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,160.

I CALLED ALL THE DEALERS LISTED ON YOUR WEB SITE TO HAVE THE AIR BAGS REPLACED BUT THEY SAID THEY DONT HAVE THE PART AND CANT GET IT RK CHEV TOLD ME TO GO TO A CADILLAC DEALER AND THEY DONT HAVE IT SO WHAT DO I DO, ALSO THE ENGINE HAS ATICKING NOISE SINCES THE TIME I GOT THE CAR AND THEY SAY ITS NOTHING BUT IT STILL DOING IT TICKING AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT

TAKATA RECALL MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR 2 YEARS NOW. I CAN'T SELL MY CAR BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE ITS A RECALL PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IS HURTING MY RESALE.

TAKATA RECALL. MYSELF, MY FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND ASSOCIATES HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO THE TAKATA INFLATOR WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS PHYSICAL INJURY OR DEATH. IT IS A TICKING TIME BOMB AS I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND GM WILL NOT REPLACE IT.

LOW BEAM LIGHTING IS VERY VERY POOR, LIKE NOT HAVING ANY LIGHTING AT ALL. VERY DANGEROUS ! HAVE CHANGED BULBS BUT NO LUCK. DEALER TESTED AND ADVISED THEY ARE NORMAL, NO WAY. WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM DRIVE IT AT NIGHT. I LIKE THE VEHICLE BUT FEEL I'M FORCED TO TRADE-IN, JUST TO DANGEROUS BECAUSE I OFTEN HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. NEW VEHICLE WILL NOT BE A CADILLAC !
