2010 Cadillac SRX Complaint Log

I HAVE NOTICED EXCESSIVE WATER DROPLETS IN HEADLIGHTS IT'S SO BAD VISIBILITY IS A SAFETY CONCERN AT NIGHT BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE HEADLIGHTS DON'T EVEN LOOK LIKE THERE ON. I HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAMS WHICH PUTS OTHERS LIVES IN DANGER DUE TO BEING BLINDED BY THE BRIGHT LIGHTS THAT CAN LEAD INTO MORE CRASHES.

SINCE THE SUNROOF DRAIN TUBE DISLODGED CAUSING WATER TO LEAK INSIDE CAUSING AN ELECTRICAL SHORT. THE COMPUTER DOESN'T SENSE THE DRIVER DOOR. YOU CAN DRIVE WITH THE DOOR OPEN AND NO AJAR WARNING. THE WINDOW DOESN'T GO UP OR DOWN. THE RADIO AND INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT GO OFF ONCE YOU EXIT THE VEHICLE. IT SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY AFTER 10MINS AS OPPOSE TO SHUT OFF WHEN YOU OPEN THE DRIVER DOOR. THERE'S A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REGARDING THIS PROBLEM

I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TWO DAYS AGO AND NOW REALIZED IT LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING (IN-MOTION) AND THEN JUMPS AS IF IT WANTS TO CUT OFF. AT THE TIME, I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE, THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE A CRASH OR CAUSE OTHER CARS TO REAR-END IT. ALSO, IT SAYS AIRBAG NEEDS SERVICING.

SEALS ON LIGHTS ALLOWING WATER TO COLLECT AND SHORT OUT HEADLIGHTS

The contact owns a 2010 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that the headlights would fail to operate once moisture entered the headlight module. The contact stated that either the check right headlamp or check left headlamp warning message would appear on the instrument panel during the failure. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed her that if the headlights were replaced by an independent mechanic, she might be reimbursed through a manufacturer warranty. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000. Consumer stated problem is ongoing.

HEAD LAMP FOG UP WITH MOISTER AND HEAD LIGHTS ARE DIM . VERY HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT STATIONARY AND IN MOTION

THE FACTORY HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2010 CADILLAC SRX OVER TIME DEVELOP MOISTURE AND THE BULB BECOMES DIM. HID LENS BECOME OBSCURED AND MAKES IT EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY ON UNLIT ROADS.

THE BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT FULLY RESET AFTER BEING DEPRESSED. THIS CAUSES THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, BUT BRAKE IS NOT ACTUALLY BEING APPLIED.

WHEN IT IS WARM OUTSIDE (ABOVE 75) WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, THE PEDAL DOES NOT RETURN TO THE NEUTRAL POSITION, AND THE BRAKES ARE STILL ENGAGED. WE HAVE TO PULL UP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND IT COMES BACK TO NEUTRAL.

ENGINE LIGHT ON MOST OF THE TIME. TIMING BELT ISSUE ACCORDING TO TEST.

I WAS ON AN INCLINE (DRIVEWAY) AT A RESTAURANT WHEN MY VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARDS WHILE IN DRIVE ALMOST HITTING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME. I NOTICED IT DOING THE SAME THING IN DRIVEWAYS WITH A SLOPE AND APPROACHING LIGHTS WITH HILLS. WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL ON A SLOPE, SUCH AS A HIGHWAY RAMP THE TRUCK ROLL BACKWARDS WHEN RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY AT THE SAME TIME. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHER PEOPLE SAYING THEIR VEHICLE WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL DOING THE SAME THING. DURING THE RESTAURANT INCIDENT THE PEOPLE BEHIND ME WAS SO IRATE THINKING I WAS JUST BACKING UP ON THEM. IT REMINDED ME OF HAVING A VEHICLE WITH A STICK SHIFT WHEN REMOVING YOUR FEET OFF OF THE BRAKE TO PRESS ON THE GAS AND IT GOING IN REVERSE INSTEAD OF GOING FORWARDS.

BRAKES STIFF WHEN PRESSED ON, BUT WON'T SLOW DOWN RIGHT AWAY. HAVE TO PUSH HARD REALLY FAST TO COME TO QUICK STOP. USUALLY AFTER JUST STARTING UP THE VEHICLE AND BEGINNING TO BACK UP. SINCE I PURCHASED IT (USED) IN JULY 2019

LOW OCTANE FUEL WAS USED IN THE VEHICLE AND IT IS NOW MAKING A KNOCKING SOUND FROM THE ENGINE, LAGGING ON ACCELERATING, AND HAVING ISSUES STARTING.

TAKATA RECALL" HEADLIGHTS DON'T WORK GOOD AT NIGHT I HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAN BECAUSE THE LOW BEAN EVERYONE COMPLAIN ABOUT NOT ABLE TO SEE AND I DID RECEIVE A RECALL LETTER AND I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY SAY THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THIS CAR AND THIS IS BEEN GOIN ON SINCE I GOT THE CAR

ENGINE RPMS REV ABRUPTLY BETWEEN 3K - 4K DURING SHIFTS. MOSTLY HAPPENING IN 1ST-3RD GEAR. THIS HAPPENS DURING ANY CONDITION WHERE MY VEHICLE IS ACCELERATED MODERATELY OR HIGHER. DURING LIGHT ACCELERATION IT IS LESS NOTICEABLE BUT WILL STILL SPIKE RPMS DURING SHIFTS. IT HOVERS AROUND 3K - 4K RPM BEFORE SHIFTING. WHAT IT FEELS LIKE UNDER ACCELERATION IS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO NEUTRAL FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN BACK INTO GEAR OR INTO NEXT GEAR UNDER HEAVIER ACCELERATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT AND WERE INOPERABLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE "CHECK PASSENGER SIDE HEAD LAMP" MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BUD WEIZER MOTORS (2676 MILWAUKEE RD, BELOIT, WI 53511, (608) 466-1772) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND LIGHT BULBS; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE LOCAL DEALER. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 142,000.

WENT TO STOP ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS (SO FAR) AND MY BRAKE PEDDLE WENT TO THE FLOOR. HAD TO RUN OUT OF MY LANE TO MISS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME......VERY DANGEROUS!!! MILEAGE 134,000

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT CONDENSATION WAS PRESENT INSIDE THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE HEAD LAMP ASSEMBLY. ALSO, THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAD LAMP ASSEMBLY WAS FOGGY. THE FAILURES CAUSED THE HEADLIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE DIMLY. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND BELLEVUE CADILLAC (600 116TH AVE NE, BELLEVUE, WA) WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE BECOME SO DIM, DRIVING AT NIGHT IS VERY DIFFICULT WITHOUT USING THE HIGH BEAMS. USING HIGH BEAMS CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ONCOMING DRIVERS, SO THIS ISN'T AN OPTION. REPLACING THE HEADLIGHTS WITH OEM PRODUCTS IS A SHORT TERM FIX AS THE REPLACEMENT PRODUCT IS AS DEFECTIVE AS THE ORIGINAL. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS AND FOUND THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON CADILLAC SRX FROM 2010 TO 2015. GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY HAZARD THEY CREATED.

11057 RECALL. AC COMPRESSOR NOT WORKING

The contact owns a 2010 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that the vehicle was recently taken to the dealer to be repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V473000 (Suspension). The vehicle was repaired however, the failure occurred. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that after opening the driver’s side door an unknown module was reset, and the contact was able to drive for several miles before the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was not repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 105,000.

I AM ISSUING WITH THE HEADLIGHT LOW BEAM. THE LIGHT IS VERY DIM. I HAVE NOTICED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME ISSUE. CADILLAC STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM IS A SAFETY ISSUE, DRIVING VISIBILITY IS LOW THIS COULD RESULT INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE HAD THE OUTSIDE OF THE HEADLIGHT CLEAN, BUT NO DIFFERENCE IN LOW BEAM VISIBILITY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE GOR MANY DRIVERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, IT HESITATED TO RESPOND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KEN BATCHELOR CADILLAC (11001 I-10, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78230, (210) 690-0700) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED A SECOND TIME. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED AT 99,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO SUBMIT A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

THE FRONT SUSPENSION WAS MAKING A LOT OF LOUD NOISE, ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING OVER ANY BUMPS. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL CADILLAC DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THERE ARE NO LUBRICATION FITTING ON THE FRONT SUSPENSION OF THE 2010 SRX AND IT HAD SERIOUSLY WORN OUT TIE ROD ENDS AND CONTROL ARM AND THEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

CADILLAC 2010 SRX HAS MOISTURE IN BOTH HEADLAMPS AGAIN. LEFT HEADLIGHTS HAS STOPPED WORKING, RIGHT SIDE IS WORKS ON AND OFF. HEADLAMPS HAVE BEEN FIXED PREVIOUSLY DUE TO MOISTURE. WHEN WILL THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND/OR CADILLAC GOING TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS? THIS IS A COMMON SAFETY PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS AND ARE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE DURING RAIN, SNOW, OR AT NIGHT. HELP!!!

TIMING CHAIN!!!! ONLY HAD THIS TRUCK UNDER 2 YEARS 2010 CADILLAC SRX I GO TO THE MECHANIC SHOP HE TELLS ME IT'S A CRANK SHAFT SENSOR HE FIXES IT ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON HE DOES SOME MORE CHECKING THEN BOOM!!! IT'S THE TIMING CHAIN WHEN BIG THINGS LIKE THIS GO WRONG IT SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT BE OUT OF THE PURCHASERS POCKET IT SHOULD BE OUT OF THE MANUFACTURERS POCKET THIS IS RIDICULOUS ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR STILL PAYING ON THE VEHICLE I'LL NEVER IN MY LIFE OWN A CADILLAC AGAIN OR ANYTHING MADE BY THIS COMPANY

HEADLIGHTS COLLECT MOISTURE IN LENS COVER AND OVER TIME THE HEADLIGHTS BURN OUT LEAVING YOU WITH A VEHICLE WITH NO HEADLIGHTS. APPROXIMATE REPAIR COST BY CADILLAC DEALERSHIP $2500.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. AN INTERMITTENT NOISE WAS HEARD WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION. THE FAILURE OCCURRED MOST OFTEN WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE IN COLD TEMPERATURES. CABLE DAHMER CADILLAC OF KANSAS CITY (1151 W 104TH ST, KANSAS CITY, MO 64114, (855) 420-1315) WAS BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE.

PURCHASED 11/16 WITH 62K MILES, 12/16 REPLACED HIGH PRESSURE STEERING LINE, 5/18 REPLACED ALL TIMING CHAINS, 1/19 REPLACED STEERING COOLER. 2-WEEKS LATER LOWER END ROD KNOCK-CONNECTING ROD BEARING(S) BAD. NO WARNING, NO SOUNDS AND THE OIL WAS CHANGED SAME TIME AS STEERING COOLER REPLACED. NO NOTICE OF SHAVINGS IN OIL. OIL HAS BEEN CHANGED EVERY 3-5000 MILES. ALL SERVICE PERFORMED AT CADILLAC DEALERSHIP. $8999 TO REPLACE ENGINE. KBB CAR TRADE IN VALUE $7300, NOW $1000 FROM DEALERSHIP. AT 60 I'VE OWNED A LOT OF AUTOMOBILES, SEVERAL CADILLAC'S AMONG THEM AND TAKE EXCELLENT CARE OF THEM. I HAVE A PICKUP WITH 243K JUST TO SHOW HOW WELL I TAKE CARE OF THEM. THIS OUT OF THE BLUE BLOWN CONNECTING ROD BEARINGS IS HIGHLY SUSPECT. ESPECIALLY JUST HAVING HAD THE DEALER PERFORM AN OIL CHANGE. IF THE BEARINGS WERE GOING BAD THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN SHAVINGS IN THE OIL, AND WOULD HAVE BEEN OBVIOUS. SIDE NOTE. WHEN I CHECKED THE CODES BEFORE BEING TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IT HAD A P0017 CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. SAME CODE WHEN I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAINS.

WHEN I'M DRIVING IT AUTOMATICALLY SWITCHES TO ANOTHER GEAR . THEN IT FEELS LIKE IT'S HOLDING BACK. AS I CONTINUE TO ACCELERATE IT GETS LOUDER AND LOUDER SOUNDING LIKE A GO CART. IT WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN 60 MPH WHEN IT GETS INTO THIS ODD MODE. TO TEMPORARILY FIX THE PROBLEM I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND PUT IT INTO PARK AND THEN DRIVE AGAIN BUT A MINUTE OR TWO GOES BY AND IT DOES IT AGAIN. WHEN I'M GOING ABOUT 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY IT WILL NOT DO IT. IT ONLY HAPPENEDS WHEN I'M SLOWING DOWN OR SPEEDING UP NORMALLY AT STOP SIGNS AND THINGS. I HADN'T HAD THIS CAR VERY LONG, I BOUGHT IT FROM SOMEONE OFF OF FACEBOOK AND HE CLAIMS THAT'S NEVER HAPPENED TO HIM! I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THOUGH!

HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN FILLED WITH CONDENSATION FOR OVER 4 YEARS AND DEALER SAYS IT WOULD NOT CAUSE ANY ISSUES, PURELY A COSMETIC ISSUE. NOW HEADLIGHTS ARE MALFUNCTIONING, WITH LOW BEAM ALTERNATING BETWEEN WORKING AND NOT WORKING, AND CAN ONLY FLASH HIGH BEAMS, NOT KEEP THEM ON FOR NIGHT DRIVING. THE LAWSUIT CHESTER STEELE V GM IS ONLY LIMITED TO CALIFORNIA, ONE OF THE DRIEST STATES. WITH RECENT BELOW 0F TEMPERATURES THE CONDENSATION HAS MOST LIKELY FRIED THE CONNECTIONS FROM FREEZING, THAWING, AND REFREEZING. GM KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM, AND WILL NOT ADDRESS IT EXCEPT WITH AT LEAST A $2,000 BILL TO FIX IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO MAKE AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND THE SERVICE REAR AXLE AND ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RIZZA CADILLAC BUICK GMC (LOCATED AT 8425 159TH ST, TINLEY PARK, IL 60487, (708) 429-6600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED THE FOLLOWING DAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY STATED THAT THEY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE AND REPLACED THE OIL ON THE REAR AXLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STILL MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000. *TR VEHICLE HEADLIGHT PASSENGER SIDE HAD TO BE REPLACED COST $1,300 KNOWN RECALL. RECALLS WERE NOT ALLOWED BUT ARE KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE 2010 SRX TOTAL EXPENSES. CATALYTIC CONVERTER KNOWN RECALL 8,600 C AN PROVIDE RECEIPTS.*JB

HID HEADLAMPS SHORT OUT DUE TO WATER INTRUSION IN HEADLAMP AND LOCATION OF BALLAST THAT ALLOWS WATER TO INTRUDE INTO BALLAST AND SHORT OUT. CANNOT JUST REPLACE BALLAST AND PROJECTOR HID AS IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. COSTS OVER $1600 TO REPLACE WHOLE HID HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY. SAFETY ISSUE AND EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I PURCHASED DOES NOT COVER. I NOW SEE ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL AND GM HAS NOT DONE A RECALL FOR WATER INTRUSION. POOR DESIGN AS BALLAST IS UNDERNEATH LAMP AND SERVICE TECH SAYS THERE IS NO SEAL BETWEEN HID AND BALLAST SO WATER INSTRUSION IN LAMP GETS TO BALLAST. THIS LAMP IS A COMPLICATED SHAPE AND PROBABLY VERY HARD TO MAKE A WATER SEALED LAMP.

MY TAIL GATE LIFT OPENS ON IT'S OWN EVEN WHEN THE SWITCH INSIDE THE CAR IN IN THE OFF POSITION WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED

WATER LEAKS INTO THE HEADLIGHTS POOR LIGHTING . ALMOST HAVE A ACCIDENT

THE HEADLIGHTS FILL UP WITH MOISTURE. THIS MAKES THE LIGHTS SO DIM YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE THE ROAD.

The contact owns a 2010 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH and making a right turn, she heard abnormal sounds coming from the rear end of the vehicle. The stability warning light illuminated. The contact stated she veered to the side of the road for 15 seconds per the Owner’s Manual. The contact stated that as she drove the vehicle and was attempting to make a left turn, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the stability tract sensors and all four tires needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the stability tract sensors were replaced. Then, the vehicle was taken to another independent mechanic and all four tires were replaced, however the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist as there was no open recall on the vehicle. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V473000 (Suspension) however, the part for the recall repair was not yet available. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 12,000.

MY 2010 CADILLAC SRX4 WITH 110,000 MILES JUST HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ILLUMINATE. AS I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY ON TO A CITY STREET THE NEXT MORNING TO GO TO THE GM DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE CAR SCANNED, THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY TRAVEL AT 10 MPH. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY THE VEHICLE COMING BEHIND ME. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD, WAITED FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR AND TOOK OFF SLOWLY. AFTER TRAVELING ABOUT 200 FEET, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO OPERATE AS NORMAL. HOWEVER, THE SAME SCENARIO OCCURRED AT THE NEXT STOPLIGHT. I HAD THE CAR SCANNED AND THE CODE CAME UP AS P000017. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE ESTIMATED PRICE TO REPAIR MY CAR WOULD BE $ 2,200. 00. I HAVE BEEN TO NUMEROUS SITES AND FORUMS AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE ENGINES. GM ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE PREVIOUS GENERATION SRX MODEL BUT HAS YET TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM WITH 2010 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES. GM'S CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM SIMPLY STATES THAT GM IS SORRY AND SAYS THAT YOU ARE WELCOME TO REGISTER A COMPLAINT WITH THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. THEY OFFERED AND ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER TO MYSELF WHICH BASICALLY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT I CALLED GM. HOW MANY MORE GM AUTOMOBILES DO YOU THINK I WILL PURCHASE?

BRAKES ARE CONSTANTLY LOCKING UP AS I DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THE LIGHTS ARE DEFECTED. I'VE REPLACED THE BULBS NUMEROUS TIMES BUT YOU STILL CAN'T SEE HOW TO DRIVE AT NIGHT TIME. ALSO, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE REAR SUSPENSION.

THE FRONT LIGHT HAVE A RECALL YET GM TELLS ME MINE DOESN'T QUALIFY. NOW MY LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK AT DARK, TO SAY THE LEAST THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND GM NEEDS TO HOPE I DO NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO NO HEADLIGHTS AT DARK. IT IS OVER 3000.00 JUST FOR PARTS AND NO PROMISES FROM GM THIS WILL FIX OR KEEP FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEIR INTEGRITY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SWITCH GEARS, THE VEHICLE JOLTED AND TOOK EXTRA TIME TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,191.

TWO INCIDENTS THAT ENDANGERED MY LIFE AS WELL AS OTHERS. VEHICLE WITH 26,000 MILES DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT 65 TO 70 MPH ALL OF A SUDDEN VEHICLE STOPS COMPUTER SAYS ENGINE POWER REDUCED TRAFFIC BEHIND WAS LUCKY ABLE TO AVOID HITTING ME. SECOND INCIDENT LAST WEEK ON INTERSTATE TRAFFIC ALL STOPPED DUE TO CONSTRUCTION I HAVE LITTLE TO NO BRAKES FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO SWERVE OFF TO MY RIGHT SITUATION VERY VERY DANGEROUS.

THE BRAKES RANDOMLY FAIL. WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE, IT WILL BE SPONGY AND THE PEDAL WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT FULLY STOPPING THE CAR. IF THE BRAKES ARE PUMPED, THEY USUALLY RETURN TO NORMAL. WHEN RESEARCHING THIS ONLINE, IT BECAME APPARENT THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, AND AFTER SPEAKING TO CADILLAC, MY IMPRESSION IS THAT THEY ARE NOT PROACTIVELY TRYING TO SOLVE THIS POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING DESIGN FLAW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SWITCH GEARS, THE VEHICLE WOULD JOLT AND TAKE EXTRA TIME TO SHIFT INTO GEAR.
