There are 3 owner-reported speed control & cruise complaints for the 2024 Cadillac Lyriqin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
COMPONENT: Vehicle Speed Control — Automatic Emergency Braking / Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) COMPLAINT: I am filing this complaint to report a POST-REMEDY FAILURE of the repair performed under NHTSA Safety Recall 24V589 (GM Program #N242453471) on my 2024 Cadillac Lyriq AWD. RECALL REMEDY COMPLETED: My vehicle received the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) software update on August 13, 2024, under GM Program #N242453471. The recall was marked "Complete" by the servicing dealership on that date. FAILURE INCIDENT: On March 15, 2026, at low speed (under 25 mph) on a dry surface, my Lyriq failed to activate its Automatic Emergency Braking system while approaching a stationary object. The vehicle did not decelerate or stop as designed. The ABS system appeared to release braking pressure rather than maintain it, allowing the vehicle to continue forward and strike the object. The front grille assembly sustained significant physical damage as a direct result. This failure is identical in nature to the defect described in Recall 24V589 — specifically, the ABS falsely activating and releasing braking pressure during low-speed operation on a dry surface — despite the recall remedy having been applied and certified complete ten months prior. SAFETY CONCERN: The software remedy applied under Recall 24V589 did not correct the defect on my vehicle. This raises serious concerns about the effectiveness of the EBCM software update as a remedy across all affected vehicles. If other vehicles received the same software update and the defect persists, there is a significant ongoing safety risk to the public. I am requesting that NHTSA: Investigate whether the Recall 24V589 remedy (EBCM software update) has been effective across all affected vehicles Determine whether a supplemental or revised recall remedy is necessary Require GM/Cadillac to cover physical damages resulting from this post-remedy failure I have also contacted Cadillac Customer Care direct
On September 9, 2025, while slowly turning into a parking space at approximately 7 mph, the vehicle suddenly experienced unintended acceleration. There were no warnings, alerts, or Safety Alert Seat vibrations prior to the surge. The vehicle rapidly accelerated forward, struck a parked car, went over a curb, hit a tree, and finally came to rest after colliding with the side of a building. GM has since taken possession of the vehicle for forensic analysis.
One pedal driving switched to unavailable while driving - 24 Lyriq AWD I have seen this couple of times while driving now. I keep the one-pedal driving setting on High. I suddenly get an error on Side detection unavailable and One pedal driving turned off - use manual braking. I also feel a slight surge in acceleration while this happens, but I have been able to slow down and re-engage one pedal and it seems to work after that. I am concerned that I may bump into someone in front of me if this happens again, since it has happened a couple of times now!
