2007 Cadillac Cts-V

Defect. General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V vehicles manufactured between September 6, 2003, and June 11, 2007, currently registered, or originally sold, in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. In the affected vehicles, snow or water containing road salt or other contaminants may corrode the front brake hose fitting at the caliper.

Remedy. GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace both front brake hose assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on May 8, 2015. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 15149. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 10V-105.

TO ALL MY FACEBOOK FRIENDS I AM GOING TO ASK YOU TO PLEASE READ THIS AND MAKE IT GO VIRAL. I OWN A 2007 CADILLAC CTS-V WHICH I PAID $41,000.00 WHEN IT WAS NEW, WITH LOANS THE CAR ENDED UP COSTING ME $55,000.00 WHICH I WAS WILLING TO PAY. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL CAR. NOW HERE IS WHAT HAS HAPPENED. I NOW HAVE ABOUT 19,190 MILES ON IT AND AT 15,000 MILES I REPLACED THE TIRES. BEING A V THEY PUT ON BRIDGESTONE POTENZA'S. THAT COST ME ABOUT $1000.00. AT 17,000 MILES I HAD A SENSOR GO OUT ON MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE, THAT CONTROLS MY BRAKES. THAT COST ME $600.00. AT THE SAME TIME THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED FRONT BRAKES. THAT ONLY COST ME $300.00 BECAUSE I HAD A COUPON AND TOLD THEM TO JUST REPLACE THE PADS AND DO NOT TURN THE ROTOR. AT 19,160 MILES THE LEFT WHEEL SENSOR WENT ALONG WITH ONE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS GOING TO COST ME ANOTHER $1200.00. THE REASON I AM WRITING THIS IS BECAUSE A FRIEND TOLD ME ABOUT A WEBSITE CALLED "EDMUNDS CAR REVIEW" AND I WENT ON THIS SITE TO FIND OUT THAT CADILLAC HAS HAD THIS ISSUE SINCE 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 ETC. MOST OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN SOME SATISFACTION FROM CADILLAC AND SOLD THEIR CAR BEFORE THE NEXT REPAIRS. SO I BEG OF YOU, IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS CONSIDERING BUYING A CADILLAC CTS, CTS-V THAT THEY READ THE EDMUND REPORT FIRST. I AM NOW CONTACTING THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY SAFETY ADMINISTRATION BECAUSE APPARENTLY THE BBB HAS GUIDE LINES THAT RESTRICT THEM FROM DOING ANYTHING ABOUT ISSUES 6 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. SO PLEASE TEL
