CADILLAC Complaints

THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITIONS, AT APPROX 40MPH IN THE EVENING. WHEN ACCELERATING TO PASS A CAR GOING SLOW IN A 50MPH+ ROAD, THE ACCELERATOR STUCK IN THE CADILLAC. THIS FORCED A DEFENSIVE DECISION TO UNFORTUNATELY HIT THE CAR IN FRONT VERSUS UNKNOWN CLEARING. AFTER (NOW AT 60MPH), THE ACCELERATOR STAYED STUCK, WHICH REQUIRED THE CAR TO THEN STRIKE A POLE AT 100MPH! THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SCENARIO AND ONLY BY GRACE WERE ALL PARTIES SAFE IN THE PRIMARY CAR (CADILLAC REFERENCED), AND THE CAR STRUCK. THE CAR WAS TOTALED AND EVEN THE BLACK BOX WAS NOT OPERATIONAL AFTER SITTING FOR A 3 WEEK SPAN IN A TOW LOT.

SHIFT MODULE 208755589 DATED 01/25/2010 OTHER NUMBERS GM 4447/812516052/05MODEL5 WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO PARK, VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN OFF AND ROLLED CAUSING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.

I OWN A 2011 CADILLAC SRX 66,000 MILES, IT HAS BEEN IN OUR FAMILY SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW AT CAMARGO CADILLAC. I TOOK IT IN TODAY FOR SIMPLE OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. I WAS INFORMED BY PHONE THAT MY HEADLIGHT WAS OUT ON THE DRIVER SIDE, NEWS TO ME. THIS CAR HAS A CATASTROPHIC DEFECT IN THE HEADLAMPS AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE TO EXPERIENCE IT. THERE ARE NUMEROUSREPORTS OF THIS ISSUE ONLINE, WHERE CONDENSATION BUILDS IN HEADLAMP AND CAUSES FAILURE. AM I NOT SUPPOSE TO DRIVE MY LUXURY VEHICLE IN THE RAIN OR TAKE IT TO THE CAR WASH? I FIRST EXPERIENCED THIS ON MY PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT IN LATE 2015, LIGHT FAILED WHILE DRIVING AND THE WHOLE HEADLAMP HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOW A YEAR LATER WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE DRIVER SIDE. I ASSUME THIS WILL FALL ON DEAF EARS AS NO ONE WANTS TO DO ANYTHING TO ASSIST WITH THIS ISSUE FROM DEALERS TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE. 1300.00 FORA NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR SECOND TIME ON A CAR 6 YEARS OLD, UNHEARD OF ! I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL VEHICLES AT THE AGE OF 46, AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO HAVE 1 LET ALONE 2 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S REPLACED. GM HAS AN ISSUE AND SHOULD OWN UP TO IT ! .WHAT WAS EVEN MORE AGGRAVATING WAS THE NON-CHALANT ATTITUDE AT THEJEFF WYLER CADILLAC DEALERSHIP AND WITH GMCUSTOMER SERVICE, AS IF THIS WAS NORMAL AND I WAS CRAZY. HONESTLY TAKE A POLE OF GM EMPLOYEES HOW MANY OF THEM /OR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE HAD / AND WOULD BE OKAY WITHPAYING FOR 2 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S REPLACEMENTS ON THEIR 6 YEAR OLD LUXURY VEHICLE ?????

THERE WAS A PRESENCE OF A CONSTANT INTERMITTENT FLUID LEAK.

AFTER DRIVING MY CAR WITHOUT ANY ISSUES FOR 3 YEARS, THE LOW BEAMS BECAME INCREASINGLY DIM. I HAD REPLACED THEM NUMEROUS TIMES, TAKEN IT TO NUMEROUS CADILLAC GARAGES/ DEALERS, REPLACED THE BATTERY ETC, WITH NO SOLUTION. I RESEARCHED THAT THE 2010 MODEL SRXS WERE RECALLED DUE TO HEADLIGHTS. I AM STILL CURRENTLY HAVING ISSUES WITH CADILLAC TELLING ME "THIS IS NORMAL FOR AN SRX"

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CADILLAC CTS. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK BEFORE STALLING AND SHUTTING OFF. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN FROM OUTSIDE WITH KEY OR FROM INSIDE WITH MANUAL LEVER. THE DOOR LOCK BUTTON WOULD NOT MOVE TO UNLOCK DOOR BY THE ELECTRIC SWITCH OR BY HAND. I HAD TO EXIT VEHICLE BY CRAWLING OVER CENTER CONSOLE AND EXITING PASSENGER SIDE. AT SOME LEVEL I CAN UNDERSTAND THE ELECTRICAL DOOR CONTROL FAILING, BUT I DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE TO NOT HAVE A MECHANICAL OPTION TO OPEN THE DOOR UNDER ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THIS FIRST HAPPENED WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. MECHANIC NEEDED TO CRAWL IN THE PASSENGER SIDE AND REMOVE DOOR PANEL TO REPLACE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY. 62014 ON ODOMETER AT REPAIR TIME.

WHILE DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH SUNROOF GLASS SUDDENLY EXPLODED OUT OF NOWHERE, GLASS SHATTERED AND SPREAD ALL THROUGHOUT MY CAR DROPPING ONTO MYSELF MY WIFE AND MY CHILDREN. THERE WAS A LOUD BOOM FROM THE GLASS SHATTERING WHICH WAS VERY STARTLING WHILE DRIVING. MAJOR CONCERN IS THAT THERE COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT FROM LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE WEATHER WAS CLOUDY AND TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 60 DEGREES. NO DEBRIS PRESENT, THERE WAS NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME OR TO THE SIDE OF ME. I WAS NOT GOING UNDER AN UNDERPASS. FROM THE STARTLING NOISE THERE COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT WHICH MAY HAVE CAUSED ME OR MY FAMILY HARM OR DEATH. I BELIEVE THESE SUNROOFS NEED ANOTHER LOOK.

LOUD NOISE (KNOCK) WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 65 MPH, ALL ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON, VEHICLE TOWED TO RESIDENCE.
