2013 Cadillac SRX Complaint Log

HEADLIGHTS WHEN IN STANDARD ON, NOT BRIGHTS, NOT DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS, ARE VERY DIM. ONLY HAVE ABOUT 5 FEET OF VISIBILITY. WE HAVE HAD THE DEALER TWICE DO A FULL EVALUATION, AND ACCORDING TO GM/CADILLAC EVERYTHING CHECKS, VOLTAGES, ETC. IF EVERYTHING CHECKS, THEY WHY ARE THE LIGHTS TOO DIM? THE DEALER WILL DO NOTHING SINCE THERE IS NOTHING IN THEIR (GM/CADILLAC) SYSTEM FOR PROBLEMS. WE USE THOMSON MACCONNELL CADILLAC IN CINCINNATI, OH. THEY ARE FOLLOWING THEIR DIRECTIONS AND WILL NOT DO ANY MORE IN ASSISTING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET, AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS, NO ANYTHING FOR CORRECTION. THERE ARE HOWEVER, SEVERAL LAWSUITS BEING BROUGHT AGAINST GM FOR THIS PROBLEM, AND THERE ARE OTHERS THAT REFUSE TO DRIVE THEIR SRX AT NIGHT DUE TO THE LOW OUTPUT OF LIGHT. WE ARE PROBABLY GOING TO PARK IT AT NIGHT AND DRIVE OUR OTHER CAR. THIS HAS BEEN THIS WAY FOR THE TWO YEARS WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE. IF WE CAN'T USE IT WHEN EVER WE WOULD LIKE TO USE, THEN THE PROBLEM NEEDS FIXED BEFORE THERE ARE ACCIDENTS AND MAYBE SOMEONE GETS INJURED OR SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS. WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WAIT TILL THAT HAPPENS. THIS NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. SOMEONE IS WELCOME TO COME AND VISIT AND DO A DRIVE WITH US AT NIGHT.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT UNLESS HIGH BEAMS ARE USED WHICH IS ALSO NOT SAFE.

2013 CADILLAC SRX LOW BEAMS ARE VERY DIM DUE TO MOISTURE IN THE PROJECTOR BOWLS. I REPLACED THE FACTORY HALOGEN BULBS WITH AFTERMARKET HID BULBS BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I AM FORCED TO USE HIGH BEAMS DURING RAIN AND IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS SINCE YOU CANNOT SEE THE ROAD AND DRIVING IS VERY DANGEROUS. CADILLAC DEALER SAID THAT BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1500.

DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT IS EXTREMELY DIM. I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACE BOTH LOW BEAM BULBS. BOTH SIDES REMAINED DIM , BUT THE DRIVERS SIDE BARELY SHOWS UP AGAINST THE WALL. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO DO ANY MORE INVESTIGATION AND SAID THAT THE CADILLAC SRX IS NOTORIOUS FOR DIM HEADLIGHTS. MY WIFE REFUSES TO DRIVE HER OWN CAR AT NIGHT FOR FEAR OF RUNNING OFF THE ROAD

I NOTICED THE DIM LIGHTING ON LOW NEAM AND TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC. I HAD HIM REPLACE THE BULBS. THEY WERE VERY EXPENSIVE BULBS AND ONLY HELPED MINIMALLY. I THE WENT TO CADIILAC DEALER AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE LIGHTING HARNESSES. I HAVE READ ONLINE MANY CASES AND THE DEALER HAS MANY OF THE CASES DOCUMENTED. IN FACT, THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT SERVICE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. CASE #

LIGHTS ON DIM ARE SO DIM YOU CAN BARELY SEE. PROBLEM WITH SEALS IN LIGHT ASSEMBLY. HAVING TO REPLACE BUT UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND A FLAW IN THE SRX.

THE SEAT WARMER IN MY VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONED AND CAUSED A FIRE IN MY DRIVER'S SEAT. I WAS NOT DRIVING MY VEHICLE AT THE TIME. I USED THE AUTO START FEATURE TO TURN ON THE CAR SO I COULD CLEAR THE SNOW FROM MY CAR. WHEN I GOT IN MY VEHICLE, I SAT DOWN AND COULD SMELL SOMETHING BURNING. IT TOOK ME A MINUTE TO REALIZE THAT IT WAS MY SEAT THAT WAS ON FIRE.I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE FIRE OUT BY PATTING THE FLAMES WITH MY GLOVED HANDS BEFORE THE FIRE GOT OUT OF CONTROL. I NOTIFIED MY LOCAL CADILLAC DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS THE GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATE OFFICE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. GENERAL MOTORS HAS CONCLUDED THAT THEY WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DAMAGES NOR WILL THEY ISSUE A RECALL OR WARNING TO OTHER CONSUMERS OF THIS DEFECT. SINCE THIS HAPPENED TO ME I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE OTHER VICTIMS OF THE SAME ISSUE. IN INDIANA, ANOTHER FAMILY HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM AND LIKE ME CADILLAC GENERAL MOTORS IS NOT TAKING ANY ACCOUNTABILITY. I BELIEVE THAT CONSUMERS ARE AT RISK AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE MADE AWARE OF THIS RISK AND SHOULD CADILLAC ACCOUNTABLE FOR ALLOWING THESE TRAGIC SITUATIONS TO CONTINUE TO OCCUR. I WAS FORTUNATE THAT I WAS NOT INJURED. SOMEONE ELSE MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY.

BY FEBRUARY 2017 WE NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND MALFUNCTION, LEAVING US IN FEAR THEY WILL FAIL WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, WHICH CAUSED THE SUV TO STAY PARKED AT NIGHT UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NEEDED. ONE NIGHT , COMING BACK FROM AIRPORT WE PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND SAW THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAD COMPLETELY FAILED, WE HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH THE LAMPS IN "BRIGHT" MODE.THE OUTSIDE INSPECTION INDICATED -EXTERIOR HEADLIGHT HOUSING UNITS WEAR OUT AND DETERIORATED, CAUSES HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS THAT INCLUDE FAILURE OF THE BULBS DUE TO CORROSION OF THE COMPONENTS SUCH AS THE IGNITERS, IN ADDITION TO ELECTRICAL SHORTS THAT OCCUR DIM LIGHT. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITHOUT HAVING MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON.

I BOUGHT A USED CADILLAC. WITHIN A FEW WEEKS I NOTICED THAT I COULD NOT SEE AT NIGHT. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY EYESIGHT. I LATER BOUGHT A HD LIGHT BULB FOR $200 AND HAD IT INSTALLED FOR ANOTHER $250(YOU NEED TO REMOVE THE BUMPER TO REPLACE THE BULBS ON THIS CAR). YET THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE, IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND DANGEROUS. I JUST CAME BACK FROM THE DEALER AND HE WANTED TO CHANGE THE WHOLE LIGHT ASSEMBLY OR GO GET AFTER MARKET ASSEMBLY. ON A HUNCH I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND SAW THAT THIS WAS A RAMPANT PROBLEM WITH SRX'S ALL OVER THE COUNTRY

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. I CALLED A CADILLAC DEALER AND THEY RECOGNIZED AND ADMITTED IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A WAY TO REPAIR IT. THEY SAID THEY TRIED REPLACING THE BULBS AND OTHER SRX'S BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AND/OR IN INCLEMENT WEATHER. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON. THE CAR CANNOT BE SAFELY DRIVEN AT NIGHT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM AND RECOMMEND A SOLUTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT AFFECTING THE SAFETY DRIVERS AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I THINK IT IS APPALLING THAT GM/CADILLAC CANNOT PROVIDE A FIX FOR THIS.

THIS CAR IS ABSOLUTELY UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE WAY TOO DIM. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THAT IS NOT THE ISSUE.

KNOWN PROBLEM WITH HEADLAMPS/ HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. THEY ARE SO DIM IT'S LIKE THEY AREN'T EVEN ON. BRIGHTS WORK FINE BUT THE LOW BEAMS ARE ABSOLUTELY AWFUL. WE'VE EVEN CHANGED OUT THE BULBS AND IT MADE ZERO DIFFERENCE. THEY HAVE GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS TIME GOES ON

NOTICE LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS WERE HORRIBLE AT NIGHT. CHECK EVERYTHING AND NOTED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH REFLECTOR. TODAY TOOK THE SRX TO CADILLAC DEALER AS PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRENTY. DEALER NOTED THERE WAS A PROBLEM BUT WARRENTY WOULD NOT COVER REPLACING THE ASSEMBLY AS NEEDED. WAS ADVISED THE COST TO REPLACE THE PAIR WOULD BE 1700.00 NEEDLESS TO SAY I DID NOT HAVE THE WORK DONE. IT IS AN EXTREME NIGHT TIME DRIVING HAZARD AND A VERY COSTLY REPAIR. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT.

The low beam headlights are so dim it is almost impossible to drive at night. While turning into my driveway at night, my neighbor who was walking her dog stepped into my driveway to get out of the way of oncoming traffic not realizing who was driving down street, I did not see her until the last second. I have spoken with dealer twice and they told me to call GM Divisional Headquarters which I called. I was told to have vehicle inspected by dealer; inspection fee is $135. If headlights are found defective dealer would replace for approx. $1800. I could then submit paperwork to GM Headquarters, and they would consider a reimbursement.

IN MANY WEBSITES, PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THAT CADILLACS SRX IS A SAFETY HAZARD AT NIGHT BECAUSE THEY HAVE A VERY POOR HEADLIGHT LIGHTING. THE LIGHTS ARE SO DIM; THE DRIVER CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD. I JUST SPENT $70.00 REPLACING THE BULBS FOR BRIGHTER BULBS, AND IT DID NOT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE. IT SEEMED LIKE THE CAR IS RUNNING ON DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS AT NIGHT. THIS ISSUE IS A SAFETY CONCERN. PLEASE REVIEW HOW MANY TIMES PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE ON THIS WEBSITE; HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/CADILLAC/SRX/2010/

IN 2016 THE HEADLIGHTS BEGAN TO DIM. THE BEAMS BECAME SO BAD IT WAS DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT AND WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. THE HEADLAMP HOUSING BUBBLED CAUSING IT TO OBSTRUCT THE BEAM. IN OUR CASE IT WAS LIKE AN UPPER EYELID CLOSING OVER THE EYE. THE HEADLAMPS HAD TO BE REPLACED.

A DIM HEADLIGHT ISSUE EXISTS WITH THE SRX. A CADILLAC SERVICE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME PART OF THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE LENS AND AN OVAL PART OF THE LENS GETS CLOUDED AND DOESN'T PROJECT LIGHT CORRECTLY. THE LIGHTS ARE SO DIM I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS WHEN POSSIBLE TO SEE. USING THE HIGH BEAMS CAN IMPAIR THE VISION OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC, SO I HAVE TO USE THEM CAUTIOUSLY. THIS HEADLIGHT PROBLEM IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE SINCE 2011 AND GM HAS NOT INFORMED THE OWNERS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE CADILLAC CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER TO FILE A COMPLAINT AND TO REQUEST HELP IN GETTING THIS ISSUE RECTIFIED. HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS AN EXORBITANT AMOUNT OF $1600 TO FIX THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY UNFAIR TO THE CONSUMERS. GM SHOULD BE CONCERNED THAT THIS DEFECT INCREASES THE CHANCE OF AN ACCIDENT WHICH CAN RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH. DUE TO THE SERIOUSNESS OF THESE FAULTY HEADLIGHTS, I AM REQUESTING INTERVENTION AND ASSISTANCE FOR ME AND OTHER OWNERS OF THE SRX TO GET OUR VEHICLES REPAIRED EITHER FREE OF CHARGE OR AT A REASONABLE PRICE. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOUR AGENCY SOON.

OUR LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS ARE DIM. WE BOUGHT THE CAR IN MAY 2015, THEN LEFT THE AREA. WE TOOK IT IN FOR ROUTINE SERVICE THREE MONTHS LATER AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THEM. WE WERE UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY FOR 50,000 MILES. WE WERE TOLD THAT'S JUST THE WAY THEY ARE. WE TOOK IT IN TO OTHER DEALERSHIPS AS WE TRAVELED AND WERE TOLD THE SAME THING. AFTER 9 DIFFERENT TIMES OVER 2 1/2 YEARS, WE FINALLY INSISTED THEY BE CHECKED, AFTER OUR WARRANTY HAD RECENTLY EXPIRED. THEN THEY CONFIRMED THERE WAS AN INTERNAL FAULT WITH THE LAMPS AND THEY NEED TO BE REPLACED, AT A COST OF $1,100. WE CONTACTED GM WITH OUR COMPLAINT. THE BEST THEY WILL DO IS INSTALL THEM FOR FREE, BUT WE HAVE TO PAY OVER $800 FOR NEW LAMPS. WE HAVE SINCE LEARNED THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT STARTING BECAUSE THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM FOR MANY. WE LITERALLY CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT OR BEFORE DAYLIGHT WITHOUT USING OUR HIGH BEAMS. WE NOW WILL REPLACE THEM OURSELVES WITH AFTER MARKET PARTS BUT THAT'S NOT A GUARANTEE THAT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. WE SAW A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON YOUR WEBSITE. WHAT MAKES US ANGRY IS THAT WE WERE LITERALLY BLOWN OFF WITH OUR COMPLAINT 9 TIMES AT VARIOUS DEALERSHIPS (ATTACHMENT HAS ALL THESE DOCUMENTED) BEFORE A DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD JUST DIAGNOSED THIS PROBLEM WITH ANOTHER CUSTOMER AFTER SHE INSISTED THE SERVICE ADVISOR DRIVE IT HOME ONE NIGHT. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND A DEFECT. WE ASSURE YOU, CADILLAC IS AWARE OF IT. THERE ARE A LOT OF US DRIVING UNSAFELY. WE TRY TO AVOID DRIVING AT NIGHT OR DUSK BUT THAT'S NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE.

THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN DIM FROM THE TIME WE BOUGHT THE CAR, BUT HAVE BECOME DIMMER OVER THE PAST MONTHS. IT IS HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT ON A WELL LIT STREET AND JUST ABOUT IMPOSSIBLE ON A DARK NEIGHBORHOOD STREET. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS WILL LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE. I FEEL THE NEED TO DRIVE WITH THE BRIGHTS ON ALL THE TIME NOW.

THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY DIMMED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT TO A POINT WHERE IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I INSTALLED NEW BULBS TWICE, AND IT DIDN'T HELP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DORMAN CADILLAC GMC (1000 INTERSTATE DR, DUNN, NC) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IN NOVEMBER OF 2016 AND DROVE IT OFF THE LOT I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. TWO VEHICLES HAVE ALMOST HIT ME DUE TO THE LAG IN ACCERLATION. I'VE SPOKEN WITH MY DEALERSHIP SEVERAL OF TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY DO NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON MY SUV AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS FIXED BUT I CAN'T FIND ANY SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS STATING IT WAS FIXED PROPERLY. I CURRENTLY GO THROUGH 13 MILES PER GALLON WHICH IS NOT NORMAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THE LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ACTIVATED, THE ILLUMINATION WAS VERY DIM WHICH CREATED A VISIBILITY HAZARD FOR THE DRIVER. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. KING CADILLAC LOCATED AT 1700 W. EVANS ST, FLORENCE, SC 29501, WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

CADILLAC CUE TOUCHSCREEN IS INOPERABLE. VEHICLE HAS 31,000 MILES. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW. VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY BUT ACCORDING TO WEB SEARCHES, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CUE. THE TOUCHSCREEN IS NON-RESPONSIVE TO TOUCH INTERFACE FOR VARIOUS AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS WHICH COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD. SUCH AS DEFOGGING OR DEFROSTING THE WINDSHIELD. SYSTEMS SUCH AS NAVIGATION, INTERIOR CLIMATE CONTROL, MEDIA CONTROLS, BLUETOOTH CONTROLS, AND OTHER ELECTRONIC CONTROLS. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT IS OUT OF THEIR CONTROL. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY $2500 (CADILLAC QUOTE) TO REPAIR SOMETHING THAT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON FAILURE ITEM FOR THE YEAR MODEL.

THE COMPUTER ON THE DASH THAT CONTROLLS THE BACK UP CAM RADIO ETC. HAS BEEN REPLACED WHILE UNDER WARRANTY BEGAN CRACKING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. CADILLAC WILL NOT REPLACE THE PART AND CANNOT GUARANTEE THE PART WILL NOT FAIL A 3RD TIME. TOLD MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED A 2013 SRX USED IN JANUARY OF 2017 AND ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TODAY BEING THE LATEST, AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT 4-WAY INTERSECTIONS, WHEN I TRY TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND MOVE INTO THE INTERSECTION THE CAR COASTS WITHOUT POWER AND LEAVES ME STRANDED FOR A FEW SECONDS. WITH THE GAS PEDAL PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN BOLTS FORWARD CAUSING THE VEHICLE "PEEL OUT". BEING STRANDED IN THE INTERSECTION IS SCARY AND I AM AFRAID I WILL BE HIT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, BUT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ON A CONSISTENT BASIS FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. I SEE ON THE INTERNET SEVERAL OTHER CONCERNS THAT SOUND VERY SIMILAR TO THIS.

THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM.THIS IS AN ONGOING DAILY ISSUE. THE ISSUE CANNOT BE REMEDIED BY CHANGING THE BULBS ALONE. THERE IS VERY NOW VISIBILITY AT NIGHT UNLESS THE HIGH BEAMS ARE USED WHICH DISTRACTS ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS ISSUE IS EXPERIENCED IN ALL DRIVING SETTINGS, CITY, HIGHWAY, COUNTRY ROADS. IT IS MOST PRONOUNCED WHEN DRIVING IN DIMLY LIT COUNTRY ROADS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DEFOGGER FAILED TO OPERATE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE TOUCH SCREEN IN THE VEHICLE WAS INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH COLEMAN BUICK GMC CADILLAC (100 RENAISSANCE BLVD, LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ 08648 (609) 482-3473). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,000.

THE LIFT GATE WILL NOT OPEN DUE TO THE CONTROL MODULE SHORT CIRCUITIING. THIS WAS DUE TO WATER BACKING UP FROM THE SUNROOF DRAIN HOSE WHICH SEEPED INTO THE TRUNK AREA AND SHORTED OUT THE LIFTGATE CONTROL BOX.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS WERE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO SAFELY NAVIGATE THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BUICK GMC CADILLAC FORT WALTON BEACH (329 MIRACLE STRIP PKWY SW, FORT WALTON, FL) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLAMP HARNESS WAS INADEQUATE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED A DISCOUNT FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

HEADLIGHTS TOO DIM TO DRIVE AT NIGHT UNLESS HIGH-BEAMS ARE USED. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY WANTED $1800 TO CHANGE BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. APPARENTLY THE BULB REFLECTORS HAD DISCOLORED AND REDUCED THE LIGHT OUTPUT.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED IN AUGUST, 2017. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE LOW BEAMS BEING DIM. DOES GM PLAN TO REPLACE THESE BULBS? I CANNOT DRIVE IT FOR FEAR OF ACCIDENT, HITTING A DEER OR SOMEONE NOT SEEING MY VEHICLE.

THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS ON THE CADILLAC SRX 2013 BARELY SHOWS UP AS LIT. WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT THERE DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE ANY LIGHTS ON AT ALL. MAKES FOR A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE RIDICULOUS! I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CHILD TO SCHOOL IN THE EARLY MORNING BEFORE THE SUN RISES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE YJAT CADILLAC IS WELL AWARE OF, YET THEY DO NOTHING! I GUESS THEY WILL WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS KILLED AND ATE IN COURT BEFORE THEYBRECALL THEIR CRAPPY ' HIGH END' VEHICLE. THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED!

HEADLIGHTS ARE A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO HOW DIM THEY ARE. CAN'T SEE ROAD AND OTHER VEHICLES CANT SEE ME

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. I HAVE SPOKEN TO NUMEROUS OWNERS WHO SUGGESTED THE SAME ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIPS WANT TO CHARGE OVER $2000.00 TO CORRECT THIS AND IT IS NOT CLEAR THAT REPLACING THESE LIGHTS WITH THE SAME LIGHTS WILL REPAIR THE ISSUE. THIS NEEDS GOVERNMENT ACTION OR PEOPLE WILL GET HURT.

CUE PROBLEMS. THE TOUCHSCREEN GOES BLACK OR FREEZES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. ALSO THE MIDDLE BOTTOM SECTION DOES NOT RESPOND AFFECTING HEATING/AC FUNCTIONS.

ACCELERATION TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO CATCH UP. THIS PROBLEM WAS SUPPOSSED TO HAVE BEEN RESOLVED. HOWEVER, I CONTINUE TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION LAGGING.

THE CADILLAC CUE SYSTEM IS NOT RESPONDING,IT IS COMPLETELY FROZEN. I AM NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE CLIMATE NOR HOT OR COLD, NOT ABLE TO DEFROST MY CAR. THE SCREEN DEFECT CAN CAUSE OR COULD LEAD TO THE LOSS OF VENTILATION CONTROL FUNCTIONALITY. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND MOST CERTAINLY A SAFETY ISSUE. THE ISSUE OCCURRED WHEN CAR WAS STATIONARY AS I WAS TURNING MY CAR ON TO HEAD HOME FROM WORK I NOTICED THE SCREEN WAS NOT FUNCTIONING.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT I HAVE TO USE THE HIGH BEAMS, ALTHOUGH CAUTIOUSLY, SO AS NOT TO BLIND ONCOMING DRIVERS. IF THERE IS A CAR BEHIND ME, I CANNOT SEE THE ROAD IN FRONT OF MY CAR AT ALL; IN FACT, I SEE THE SHADOW OF MY CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED BY CADILLAC. TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS IS ABOUT $1500 AND IS NOT GUARANTEED TO IMPROVE THE DIM LIGHT SITUATION. I HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND IT'S FRIGHTENING. WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE ABOUT THIS? THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS LOGGED ON THE INTERNET. IS THE GOVERNMENT GOING TO INTERVENE ON OUR BEHALF? WHAT RECOURSE DO WE HAVE? AT THIS POINT, I DON'T BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE UP TO INDIVIDUAL OWNERS TO PURSUE RESTITUTION. PLEASE STEP IN AND DO SOMETHING! I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A CADILLAC DEALER IN APRIL OF 2017.
