2014 Cadillac CTS complaints

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A 4 LANE ROAD GOING 45 MPH - WHEN WITHOUT WARNING A LOUD BANG CAME FROM THE BACK OF THE CAR AND THE WHEELS LOCKED UP AND I WENT INTO AN UNCONTROLLED SPIN FOR ~ 75 YARDS GOING SIDEWAYS DOWN THE ROAD AT 45...AND THEN CAME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC - THE ROADS WERE WET AS WELL...I FORTUNATELY DID NOT SPIN INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I AVOIDED TRAFFIC BEHIND ME - I WAS DRIVING WITH 2 PASSENGERS WHO HOPPED OUT OF THE CAR TO WARN DRIVERS APPROACHING WE WERE DISABLED IN THE MIDDLE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL - I TURNED IT OFF AND ON AND THEN PUT IT INTO N TO SEE IF WE COULD PUSH IT TO SAFETY. I TRIED ONE LAST TIME TO PUT IT INTO GEAR AND IT WENT INTO REVERSE SO I BACKED IT INTO SAFETY - I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED - AND AM VERY LUCKY - SO, I RESEARCH THIS AND FIND OUT THAT CADIALLIC KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM ON THEIR CTS - ESPECIALLY ON THE CTS V SPORT - SEE THE ATTACHED LINK I HAVE PROVIDED. HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/CADILLAC/CTS/DIFFERENTIAL-UNIT-PROBLEMS.PHP SO, THE CAR IS 'SUPPOSEDLY' BEING REPAIRED AT CADIALLAC DEALER - BUT HOW CAN I EVER TRUST THIS CAR AGAIN? I WON'T PUT MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT AND THE PASSENGERS WHO WERE WITH CERTAINLY DON'T TRUST THE CAR...IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED OR IF I HAVE SWERVED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. NOW I HAVE A VEHICLE I CAN'T TRUST - THIS CAR IS UNSAFE AND HAS ENGINEERING ISSUES AND CADILLAC / GM KNOW IT. I AM GOING TO GET REPAIR INVOICES AND OTHER

WHILE DRIVING, THE CUE SYSTEM BECAME INOPERABLE AND HAD A DELAYED RESPONSE TO TOUCH. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A HIGHWAY TRAVELLING APPROX 65 MPH. I PULLED OVER TO RECORD VIDEO OF THE SYSTEM NOT RESPONDING. ADDITIONALLY, THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE AND THE BACKUP CAMERA DOESN'T NOT TURN ON AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CADILLAC CTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S CUE SCREEN, WHICH WAS THE MAIN CONTROL PANEL FOR MANY FUNCTIONS IN THE VEHICLE, SUDDENLY FROZE WITHOUT WARNING. ON OTHER OCCASIONS, THE SCREEN CONTROLS FOR THE DIFFERENT FEATURES WOULD MOVE WITHOUT THE CONTACT'S CONSENT. THE CONTACT CALLED RICHARD KARR MOTORS (LOCATED AT 900 W LOOP 340, WACO, TX 76712, 254-633-2866) AND CADILLAC OF ARLINGTON (LOCATED AT 2001 NORTH COLLINS STREET, ARLINGTON, TX 76011, 817-461-2222) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURES WERE WELL KNOWN; HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,978.

VEHICLE DISPLAYS 'SERVICE REAR AXLE' 'SERVICE STABILITRAK' 'PARK ASSIST TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE' 'AUTOMATIC SEATBELT TIGHTENING UNAVAILABLE'. 4 SEPARATE AND UNIQUE OCCURRENCES. SOME HAVE ALSO INCLUDED 'REDUCED ENGINE POWER'. TYPICALLY THE MESSAGES COME ON AND REDUCED POWER OCCURS AFTER EXPRESSWAY DRIVING, FOLLOWED BY STOP AND GO CITY DRIVING OR TRAFFIC. ALSO AMBIENT TEMPS ARE OVER 80 DEGREES WITH EACH OCCURRENCE. LASTLY ENGINE BAY IS EXTREMELY HOT AFTER THE SERVICE MESSAGES ARE DISPLAYED. ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOES NOT INDICATE OVERHEATING (DISPLAYS UNDER THE HALFWAY POINT OF THE GAUGE). I HAVE 2 SEPARATE VIDEO DOCUMENTATIONS THAT CAN BE UPLOADED TO YOUTUBE. 1ST OCCURRENCE RESULTED IN CYLINDER HEAD REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. THE NEXT 3 OCCURRENCES HAVE ALL HAPPENED AFTER THE WARRANTY SERVICE. DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE AFTER THE CAR COOLS DOWN. CADILLAC CUSTOMER SERVICE SAID A SECOND DEALERSHIP REVIEW WAS REQUIRED EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER WITH THE ABOVE SERVICE MESSAGES PRESENT. ATTACHED DOCUMENTS DISPLAY FIRST WARRANTY SERVICE, AND SECOND RECORD SERVICE MESSAGES BEING PRESENT. SIMILAR TSB ISSUED FOR THE ATS-V LF4 ENGINE FOR 'SERVICE REAR AXLE' OR 'REAR AXLE OFF', ALSO THE LT4 ENGINE HAS A TSB FOR ENGINE OVERHEATING AND GOING INTO REDUCED POWER MODE WHEN THE CHARGE AIR COOLING SYSTEM IS NOT REFILLED PROPERLY VIA VAC-N-FILL METHOD. THIS VEHICLE HAS A SIMILAR LIQUID TO AIR, CHARGE AIR COOLING SYSTEM, REQUIRING THE SAME TYPE OF FIL

THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL LOCKED WHILE DRIVING AT 45MPH ON A STRAIGHT, FOUR LANE ROAD. IT MADE A LOUD THUMP AND FELT AS IF THE BRAKES WERE SLAMMED ON. THE CAR PULL HARD LEFT AND THE REAR TIRES WERE SMOKING. MANAGED TO GET THE CAR BACK TO THE RIGHT AND STOPPED AFTER HITTING THE CURB. FORTUNATELY NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE INVOLVED. THE ELSD IS ON BACKORDER AND WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR 90 DAYS.

AXLE HALF SHAFT BOLTS BACKED OUT BREAKING MATING GEARS IN DIFFERENTIAL. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN A VIBRATION THAT FELT LIKE A WHEEL WAS EXTREMELY OUT OF BALANCE STARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO INSPECT. AFTER SEEING NOTHING I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE AWAY SO IT WAS PUT IN DRIVE AND AS THE BRAKE WAS RELEASED THE GEARS BROKE DISABLING THE VEHICLE NECESSITATING A FLAT BED TOW TO THE DEALER.

THE STEERING GEAR EXPERIENCED A SHORT CAUSING THE POWER STEERING TO FAIL. THE ENTIRE MOTOR HAD TO BE REPLACED.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MYRTLE BEACH CHEVROLET (843-407-0656, LOCATED AT 1785 US-501, MYRTLE BEACH, SC 29577) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT EITHER THE WIRING HARNESS TO THE AIR BAG MODULE UNDER THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT OR THE AIR BAG SENSOR MODULE MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROMISED TO CALL THE CONTACT BACK. THE CONTACT WAS NOT CALLED BACK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,000.

MY STEERING RACK AND PUMP WENT AT ONLY 26,000 MILES. IF I WAS DRIVING THIS CAR ON THE ROAD AT THE TIME IT WENT I WOULD HAVE HAD AN AWFUL ACCIDENT. YOU COULD NOT STEER THE VEHICLE AT ALL. IT COST ME 2275 FOR THE PART AND 6 HOURS LABOR @750.00. I THINK WITH ONLY 26000MILES THIS SHOULD HAVE NOT HAPPEND.

DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, ENGINE STARTED TO HESITATE AND RUN ROUGHLY AND GOT INCREASINGLY WORSE. WHEN PULLED OVER, NOTICED THAT GAS GAUGE WAS GOING DOWN.

A MASSIVE PUDDLE OF GASOLINE HAD FORMED AROUND VEHICLE, AND GAS WAS DRIPPING FROM THE ENTIRE BOTTOM OF THE CAR, AND HAD EVEN GOTTEN INTO THE DOOR JAMS AND WAS RUNNING ONTO THE GROUND.

WHEN I TURN THE WHEELS LEFT OR RIGHT EITHER GOING FORWARD OR BACKWARD, THERE IS A HITTING NOISE THAT FEELS LIKE THE FRONT TIRES WILL COME OUT OF THE ACCEL AND THIS HAPPEN WHILE IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS ,IT WOULD BE MORE DANGEROUS IF IT IS ON HIGH WAY

DRIVING DOWN FRONTAGE ROAD AT APROX. 30 MPH MY SUNROOF EXPLODED SUDDENLY AND BEGAN TO FALL INTO THE CAR. NO EVIDENCE OF ANYTHING STRIKING THE SUNROOF AND TEMP. NOT AN ISSUE. CAR WAS IN MOTION AND DRIVING STRAIGHT FORWARD ON ROAD.

I HAVE A DAMAGED RIGHT DAYTIME RUN LIGHT ON MY 2014 CADILLAC CTS. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE REPLACEMENT PART (PART# 20896556). GM NOW SAYS THERE ARE NON AVAILABLE IN THE SYSTEM AND HAVE PROVIDED NO HELP TO SECURE ONE. THIS PART FITS 2014 THRU 2016 CTS'S. THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND CADILLAC DOESN'T SEEM TO THANK IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY OR CARE THAT THEY HAVE CREATED THIS SAFETY HAZARD. MY GM COMPLAINT NUMBER IS 8-2572310479. I WOULD THINK THAT THE NTSB SHOULD BE CONCERNED THAT GM IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

IN THE PAST 2 1/2 YEARS I HAVE 7 TIRES REPLACED. THE SIDE-WALL OF THE TIRES SPLIT AND I BELIEVE THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE DEFECTIVE WHEELS. THESE ARE 18 INCH WHEELS AND I BELIEVE THEY ARE POORLY DESIGNED RESULTING IN THE TIRE SPLITTING. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS SORT OF REOCCURRING PROBLEM IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE

I HAVE TOLD THE DEALER THAT I LEASED THE CAR FROM THAT THERE IS A TERRIBLE GLARE AND REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE DASHBOARD. THE INTERIOR IS A NEW LIGHT COLOR AND THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH REFLECTIONS OF THE CUTOUTS AND VENTS THAT MIRRORS THE WHOLE TOP OF DASH ON WINDSHIELD. WHEN SUN SHINES THERE IS SUCH A DISTRACTION THAT YOUR EYES ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE CLEARLY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD WITHOUT BEING DISTRACTED. IF A PERSON OR CHILD DARTED IN FRONT OF THE CAR WHEN I AM DISTRACTED BY A REFLECTION OF ALL THE DESIGNS AND CUTOUTS, IT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. I AM STILL WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM CADILLAC. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANY OTHER CAR WITH A LIGHT COLOR DASHBOARD AND AM SURPRISED THIS WASN'T RESEARCHED BEFORE MANUFACTURING. PLEASE ADVISE.... THANK YOU *TR

ORIGINAL WINDOW LABEL HAS GOVERNMENT 5 STAR RATING FOR FRONTAL CRASH AND ROLLOVER. THIS WAS IMPORTANT TO ME AS THIS WILL PROBABLY BE MY LAST CAR. LETTER DATED MAY 16, 2014 FROM GM CHANGED THE 5 STAR RATING TO NO RATING AT ALL. I'M SURE GM USED THE ORIGINAL WINDOW LABEL IN DETERMINING COST OF CAR AND DEALERS USED IT AS A SELLING POINT. THE COST WAS SUBSTANTIAL TO ME AND I MAY NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT AT ALL IF I HAD KNOWN CORRECT SAFETY RATING. I FEEL I WAS DECEIVED, LIED TO, AND MISLEAD. *TR

PURCHASED A NEW 2014 CADILLAC CTS, WINDOW STICKER SHOWED CLEARLY AND AS A SELLING FEATURE THAT THE CAR RECEIVED A GOVERNMENT 5 STAR SAFETY RATING FOR FRONTAL CRASH, DRIVER AND PASSENGER AND FOR ROLL OVER. FIVE MONTHS LATER, MAY 16, 2014 I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM CADILLAC STATING THAT THERE WAS AN ERROR AND THE CAR DID NOT RECEIVE A 5 STAR GOVERNMENT RATING AND THEY SENT ME A NEW WINDOW STICKER.. I FEEL THIS IS FALSE ADVERTISING PROMOTING THE SAFETY OF THE CAR BASED ON US GOVERNMENT SAFETY RATING. THANK YOU

RETURNED HOME IN DRIVEWAY SHUT OFF CAR AND THE DRIVER SEAT AUTOMATICALLY MOVES AS FAR BACK AS THE TRACK WILL ALLOW WELL MY GRAND DAUGHTER WAS IN HER CAR SEAT IN THE REAR BEHIND ME, THE DRIVER AND THE SEAT CRUSHED HER FOOT AND BENT HER FOOT BACK WARDS . HER FOOT WAS TRAPPED AND WEDGED BETWEEN THE SEATS THE DRIVER SEAT COMES WITHIN A FEW INCHES OF THE BACK SEAT. SO, ANYONE SITTING THERE WOULD HAVE THEIR KNEES CRUSHED. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION AND IT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE IF AN ADULT WAS SITTINGTHERE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING A 2014 CADILLAC CTS ON 04/27/14, IN FREMONT, CA. VEHICLE CONFIGURATION: 2014 CTS 3.6L RWD PERFORMANCE. VIN, TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE: 1G6AS5S39E0[XXX] THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 11AM. THE PLANNED TRAVEL ROUTE WAS AS FOLLOWS: FREMONT CADILLAC, 5939 AUTOMALL PKWY, FREMONT, CA ||| NW ON BOYCE ROAD ||| N ON STEVENSON BLVD ||| INTERSTATE-880S ||| EXIT AUTOMALL PKWY ||| FREMONT CADILLAC. I TRAVELED NORTH ON STEVENSON BLVD AND THEN HEADED FOR THE ONRAMP FOR INTERSTATE 880-SOUTH. WHEN I APPROACHED THE FREEWAY ONRAMP I NOTICED, ALL OF A SUDDEN, A DELAY BETWEEN PEDAL APPLICATION AND POWER. I DEMONSTRATED THIS TO MY PASSENGER TWICE OVER, BY GENTLY LETTING OFF THE GAS AND APPLYING IT AGAIN... AT WHICH POINT THE VEHICLE'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ACCOMPANIED WITH A LOSS OF TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITY CONTROL, REDUCED ENGINE POWER, AND SHUDDERING DURING GEAR SHIFTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 40MPH AT THE TIME. ASIDE FROM THE AFOREMENTIONED ISSUES, NO OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE WERE OBSERVED. I ONLY TRAVELED TWO MILES BEFORE EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES. AS THIS WAS A BRAND NEW CAR ON A TEST DRIVE, IT OBVIOUSLY HAD VERY FEW MILES ON THE ODOMETER. UPON RETURNING TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP, THE SALES ASSOCIATES PULLED THE CAR BACK ONTO THE SALES LOT, MOVED OTHER NEW CARS OUT OF THE WAY, AND PARKED THE CAR AMONGST OTHER NEW VEHICLES FOR SALE. THE VEHICLE WAS MOST CERTAINLY NOT PULLED INTO THE SERVICE DRIVE. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THIS IS UNSETTLING NEWS.
