2011 Cadillac SRX complaints

ONCE YOU BRAKE IT STAYS APPLIED , BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON, THE BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT RAISE ONCE YOU BRAKE BUT IT STAYS APPLIED, THAT WAY CAR DOES NOT GET APPROPRIATE SPEED BUT IT BRAKES ITSELF.

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO BAD DRIVE CAN NOT SEE UNLESS HIGH BEAMS ARE ON. ONCOMING DRIVERS CAN NOT SEE THE AUTO AT NIGHT. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. WAS TOLD BY CADILLAC IT WOULD BE $200 OR MORE TO REPLACE THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS. ALMOST COLLIDED HEAD ON INTO ANOTHER CAR ON THE TACONIC PARKWAY COULD NOT SEE WHERE THE ROAD WAS AT NIGHT

VISIBILITY AT NIGHT IS VERY DANGEROUS MY LEFT HEADLIGHT HAD CONDENSATION /MOISTURE WATER IN IT AND IT CREATES A DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. I HAVE TO REFRAIN FROM DRIVING AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS SO DIM. I TRIED TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP REPLACE AND THEY STATED THAT ALTHOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED THEREFORE THEY WILL NOT REPLACE AT NO COST. THE COST TO REPLACE ONE HEADLIGHT IS $800.00

DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT FAILED. DETERMINED IGNITER FAILURE DUE TO MOISTURE INTRUSION INTO HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. REPAIR COST $1900. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT BY CADILLAC. THOUGH REPLACEMENT ASSEMBLY WAS GM OEM, THE ILLUMINATION PATTERN ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS 24"-36" SHORTER THAN PASSENGER SIDE THAT HAS ORIGINAL ASSEMBLY FROM NOVEMBER, 2010 BUILD DATE. MANUAL AND COMPUTER ADJUSTMENT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND NO PROBLEMS REPORTED WHEN DIAGNOSTICS RUN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED BEFORE OR DURING THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS GOING HOME WHEN OVER A BUMP IN ROAD AND WENT TO STOP AND BRAKES WENT ALMOST TO FLOOR BOARD BEFORE I COULD GET THE CAR TO STOP. I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. BOTH TIMES I HAD GONE OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE BRAKES FELT LIKE THEY WERE NOT GOING TO WORK AT ALL AND WENT TO THE FLOOR BOARD BEFORE I COULD GET THE CAR TO STOP.

HEADLITES DON'T LIGHT UP ROAD AT NIGHT NEED TO USE HIGH BEAMS

MOISTURE CONTINUES TO ENTER THE HEADLIGHTS CAUSING THE BULB TO SHORT OUT AND CREATING DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDIDTIONS. DEALERS WANT $1000 TO REPLACE THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY

MOSTURE/CONDENSATION IN PASSENGER HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY, CAUSED REDUCED ILLUMINATION AND FAILURE OF THE LAMP AND SUPPORTING ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLY

SUN ROOF DRAIN HOSE IS NOT PROBABLY SET UP. WHICH CASED LIFT GET MODULES TO SHORT OUT SO I CAN ALONG OR USE THE LIFT GATE AND WATER TO RUN IN TO THE VEHICLE

I PURCHASED MY 2011 CADILLAC SRX ON FEB. 3, 2018 AND SINCE HAVE HAD TO REPLACED THE ENTIRE HEADLAMPS ASSEMBLY 3 YES 3 TIMES WITHIN ONE MONTH OF HAVING THIS CAR. ALSO HAD TO REPLACE BACK DRIVERS SIDE HUB BECAUSE THE STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON AFTER HAVING IT ONLY 2 WEEKS. CAN NOT SEEING DRIVING AT NIGHT AND GM NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THESE LIGHTS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED BECAUSE OF IT!!!!

THE SERVICE REAR AXLE COMES UP ON THE DISPLAY AFTER DRIVING 5-6 MILES. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER TO LOOK AT AND THEY SAID THERE WERE LEAKS OF THE AXLE FLUID AND A PUMP IN THE REAR AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. TOTAL BILL IS $2100.

HEADLIGHT ON LOW BEAMS ARE ALMOST WORTHLESS. BOTH HEADLIGHTS HAVE FILLED WITH MOISTURE OVER THE LAST YEAR COMPOUNDING THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A "PREMIUM" AUTOMOBILE THEN THEY SHOULD TREAT THEM AS SUCH AND REPAIR THE PROBLEM.

THIS WINTER IT WAS FREEZING, MY 2011 SRX CADILLAC DISPLAYED A "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" MESSAGE, AND I COULDN'T GO OVER ABOUT 5 MILES PER HOUR. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE CAR. AFTER A SHORT TIME, I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND HAD POWER BACK. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIP WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. THEY SAID IT WAS MY THROTTLE BODY SENSOR. THE COST CAME TO $603. I WAS THE SECOND CAR OUT OF FOUR WITHIN A ONE WEEK TIME FRAME THAT HAD TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED. CADILLAC DID A RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM ON ITS OTHER VEHICLES BUT NOT THE SRX.

LOW BEAMS HAVE BEEN NOTICEABLY DIMMER OVER TIME. HIGH BEAMS A BRIGHT. LOW BEAMS SEEM DANGEROUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, BOTH FRONT HEADLIGHTS WERE DIMLY LIT, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AND TRAFFIC AHEAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHEVROLET OF TURNERSVILLE (3400 NJ-42, TURNERSVILLE, NJ 08012, (856) 516-6100) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

MY 2011 SRX NEEDS TO HAVE THE FRONT PASSENGER HEADLIGHTS REPLACED DUE TO WATER IN IT COMPLETELY OUT AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE AS WELL IS HAVING CONDENSATION AND WATER LEAKING. SO I NOW HAVE TO HAVE TWO HEADLIGHTS REPLACED. HEADLIGHT OUTAGE WAS NOTICED DRIVING HOME ON HIGHWAY AND NOTICED CAR IS NOT LIGHTING UP THE HIGHWAY PROPERLY.

HEADLAMPS HAVE BECOME SO DIM THEY ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND THE ONLY WAY TO DRIVE AT NIGHT IS WITH HIGH BEAMS WHICH IS ALSO NOT SAFE FOR OTHER MOTORIST. I DO NOT SEE ANY MOISTURE IN EITHER HEADLAMP AS OTHERS HAVE STATED. IN READING THE OTHER NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS THIS IS A SITUATION THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR A FAULTY AND DANGEROUS PRODUCT.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE PROVIDES NO ILLUMINATION WHEN SET ON DIM. WE HAVE TO DRIVE WITH OUR BRIGHTS ALL THE TIME. ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT SEE WHEN USING THE DIM SETTING. IT IS FRIGHTENING.. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF VEHICLE IS MOVING OR SITTING STILL...USING THE DIM HEADLIGHTS PROVIDE THE SAME ILLUMINATION AS NOT USING ANY LIGHTS AT ALL.

ON HIGHWAY GOING 75MPH SUDDENLY REDUCED POWER MODE & SERVICE STABILLITRAK MESSAGES. CAR IMMEDIATELY DOWNSHIFTED TO 45MPH WHICH COULD'VE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. TSB 14582A ' THROTTLE BODY ' REDUCED POWER MODE WHICH STATES 'THIS SPECIAL COVERAGE COVERS THE CONDITION DESCRIBED ABOVE FOR A PERIOD OF 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES (193,000 KM), WHICHEVER OCCURS FIRST, FROM THE DATE THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PLACED IN SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF OWNERSHIP' EXISTS, YET MY DEALER WILL NOT HONOR THE EXTENSION ON THE WARRANTY BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE TSB.

EXTREME MOISTURE BUILDUP IN BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES CAUSING DECREASED NIGHTTIME VISIBILITY AND ADDITIONALLY CAUSING BULBS TO BLOW OUT. PURCHASED 2011 SRX USED IN 2017 WITH 63,000 MILES, NOT AWARE OF THE DEFECT AT THAT TIME. A LIMITED WARRANTY WAS ALSO PURCHASED FOR AN ADDITIONAL $2700 BUT WAS INFORMED AFTER ASKING THE DEALERSHIP TO INVESTIGATE THAT DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT COVERED. QUOTED ALMOST $5,000 TO REPLACE BOTH. THIS IS HIGHLY UNSAFE AS WELL AS UNFAIR TO THE PUBLIC, NOT ONLY THE RISK OF FAILURE POTENTIALLY CAUSING BODILY HARM BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL $5,000, NOT INCLUDING THE WARRANTY PURCHASED, TO REPAIR A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.

VISIBILITY IS DANGEROUS WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE ON LOW BEAMS. IT APPEARS AS IF YOU ARE DRIVING WITH YOUR LIGHTS OFF- MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD- VERY DANGEROUS!! WAS ALMOST HIT HEAD ON BECAUSE DRIVER DID NOT SEE MY VEHICLE.

HEAD LIGHTS FULL OF WATER

WHEN YOU GO THROUGH A PUDDLE THE STEERING LOCKS UP AND YOU CAN'T MOVE FOR ABOUT 15 20 SECONDS THIS CAUSES YOU TO PANIC AND IS DANGEROUS CAUSE YOU CAN'T STRAIGHT OUT THE WHEEL.

11-21-17 AFTER DRIVING IN THE DARKNESS OF WINTER NOW I HAVE NOTICED MY HEADLIGHTS BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT ARE VERY DIM AND HAR TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. MY BRIGHT LIGHTS WORK WELL AND I USE THEM WHEN NO OTHER CARS ARE COMING HEAD ON. I THOUGHT IS WAS MY EYESIGHT BUT STARTED TO INVESTIGATE AND SAW HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE. HAVE NOT SEEN ANY RECALL NOTICES FOR THIS DANGEROUS HEADLIGHT FAULT. AUTO HEADLIGHTS ARE DIM WHEN DRIVING.

I HAVE A 2011 SRX THAT HAS 78,000 MILES ON IT. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT SEALED PROPERLY AND WATER LEAKS INTO THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY. THE WATER HAS CAUSED THE HEADLIGHTS TO BE SO DIM THAT I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITH FLASHLIGHTS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY WANTED $1400 FOR NEW LIGHTS. I CALLED GM TO SEE IF THEY WOULD ASSIST WITH THIS OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR NEW HEADLIGHTS AND THEY REFUSED ANY ASSISTANCE. THE SAID THIS WAS A NORMAL MAINTENANCE ITEM. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 40 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD MY HEADLIGHTS LEAK AND HAVE MOISTURE IN THEM, SO I DISAGREE THAT IT IS A NORMAL MAINTENANCE ITEM. WHEN I BALKED AT THE $1400 QUOTE, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALER SUGGESTED THAT THEY COULD DRILL HOLES IN THE OUTER COVER AND DO A RESTORATION CLEANUP OF THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I PAID $418 FOR THEM TO DO THAT. JUST PICKED IT UP AND THERE IS STILL WATER IN BOTH LIGHTS.

DRIVING LIGHTS WENT DULL. THE LENSE AND REFLECTOR TURNED YELLOW. WE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH LIGHTS.

CONSTANT MOISTURE IN THE HEADLAMPS CAUSE SERIOUS VISION ISSUES WHEN LIGHTS ARE ON DIM. LIGHTING IS OBSTRUCTED AND VISUAL OF THE ROAD IS SERIOUSLY IMPAIRED. THE DIM LIGHTS ARE NOT FUNCTIONAL WITH CONSISTENT MOISTURE. THERE IS A CURRENT LAWSUIT INVOLVING OTHER GM VEHICLES FOR THIS VERY REASON. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED.

WATER IS GETTING INTO THE HEAD LIGHTS ON BOTH SIDES OF MY CAR

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE BOTH FULL OF MOISTURE AND THEY KEEP SHORTING OUT AND DON'T WORK ALLO THE TIME.I CALLED CADILLAZC DEALER AND THEY WANT $4500.00 TO REPLACE THEM.I CAN N OT GET AFTER MARKET HEADLIGHTS.THEY HAVE MOTORS IN THEM WHICH MOVE WHEN CAR TURNS.I HEARD THAT THERE IS A DEFECT IN IN THEM AN D GM HAS NOT SAID ANYTHING ABOUT IT .NOT SURE IF THIS IS GTRUE OR NOT BUT I CAN'T SEE THE PRICE TO REPLACE THEM AND IM DISABLED ,RETIRFED AND SOUN DS LIKE THE PRICE IS OUT OF THIS WORLD AND FEEL LIKE THEY ARE PRICE GOUGING!!!! TOOK THEM APART AN D DRIED THEM OUT BUT MOISTURE CAME RIGHT BACK IN BOTH HEADLIGHTS AGAIN.CAN NOT SEE ANY DEFECTS IN LIGHTS BUT MOISTURE IS STILL GETTING IN AND CAUSING LIGHTS NOT TO WORK.BEEN DRIVING AROUND WITH FOG LIGHTS BUT I NO THIS IS NOT SAFE AND SOMETHING IS WRONG FOR BOTH LIGHTS TO FILL UP WITH MOISTURE.CADILLAC DEALER (HILL CADILLAC IN NEWTOWN SQUARE PA SAID THEY ARE NOT COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY AND CAR ONLY HAS 50,000 PLUS MILES ON IT AND HEADLIGHTS FILL UP WITH MOISTURE AND SHORT OUT.THE PRICE TO REPLACE THEM IS OUTRAGIOUS AND HEARD THAT STILL MIGHT NOT CORRECT IT????

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY DEVELOPED CONDESATION AND LIGHT FAILED

LAST YEAR , JUST AFTER MY WARRANTY WAS OVER, I NOTICED A PANT BUBBLING(RUST ) ON THE EDGE OF THE HOOD. DEALER WANTED $200 TO FIX IT. MY CAR IS 6 YEARS OLD (60000 MILES ) NOW AND IS SPOTLESS OTHERWISE. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH RUST SHOWING UP.

TRANSMISSION SHIFTING DELAY IS A ISSUE, CONTINUOUSLY, FROM DAY ONE . I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES, NOTHING COULD BE DONE. ON A FEW OCCASIONS THIS DELAY MADE ME PRETTY SCARY AND DANGEROUS. I KNOW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2012 AND NEWER MODELS FOR SIMILAR PROBLEM.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY I HAD A HARD TIME TO SEE THE HIGHWAY & THE PANEL ON MY DASH CAME ON SAYING MY RIGHT LOW BEAM LAMP NEEDED TO BE CHECKED. I DROVE HOME VERY CAREFULLY & PARKED MY CAR. THE NEXT DAY J BROUGHT MY CAR TO SEE ABOUT GETTING THE LAMP FIXED & THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A WHOLE NEW LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I'VE READ IN THE INTERNET THAT HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM IN THEIR CADILLAC SRX 2011. I THINK IF THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL IN THIS MAKE & MODEL CAR. IT WILL COST OVER $1400 TO FIX IT. THEY SAID THERE IS CONDENSATION/WATER WHICH CAUSED IT TO GO OUT ITS. IT SEALED CORRECTLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHTS DID NOT ILLUMINATE BRIGHTLY DUE TO MOISTURE WITHIN THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE ORIGINAL UNKNOWN LOCAL DEALER WHERE THEY REMOVED THE HEADLIGHTS AND ADDED A PROTECTIVE COATING; HOWEVER, THE REMEDY FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER LOCAL DEALER (THOMPSON BUICK GMC CADILLAC, 2600 WAKE FOREST RD, RALEIGH, NC, 27609) TO BE SERVICED FOR A SEPARATE RECALL AND THE CONTACT INFORMED THEM OF THE MOISTURE IN THE HEADLIGHT. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE MOISTURE CAUSED A FILM AND THE DIAGNOSIS WOULD BE TO REMOVE AND REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT STRUCTURE RESEAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 83169952152. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. THERE WERE NO OPEN RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 68,000.

CANNOT HEAR SOUNDS WHEN USE TURN SIGNAL LEVEL I.E. SHOULD CLICK...CANNOT HEAR RADIO, AGAIN SOUND ISSUE,... BELT UNFASTENED SOUND INDICATOR DOES NOT WORK...DOOR AJAR SOUND INDICATOR DOES NOT WORK. YOU CANNOT HEAR ANYTHING. TYPICALLY STATIONARY AND IN MOTION THE SOUND INDICATORS DO NOT WORK TURNING ANY DIRECTION AND DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR CITY STREETS SAME ISSUE OCCURS. SINCE THIS IS SUMMER NO IDEA IF WEATHER IS A FACTOR. OCCURS WHETHER CAR IS ON, STATIONARY, OR MOVING.

THE TAIL GATE WILL OPEN WHEN THE BUTTON IS PRESSED BUT UNEXPECTEDLY FALLS STRIKING ANYONE IN THE HEAD WHEN PUTTING SOMETHING IN THE BACK END OR TAKING OUT OF THE BACKEND. BECAUSE THE STRUTS FAIL THAT HOLD THE GATE OPEN. THIS IS THE SAME TYPE OF RECALL AS 15V415000 THAT WAS ISSUED 6/30/2015 FOR THE GMC ACADIA, CHEVY TRAVERSE, SATURN OUTLOOK, BUICK ENCLAVE THAT WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE SAME PERIOD AS THE SRX. THIS STARTED LAST YEAR BUT THE DEALER SAID I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF IT EVEN THOUGH IT FAILED FAIRLY EARLY IN THE CARS LIFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLAMPS FAILED TO OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (BILL BLACK CHEVROLET, CADILLAC AT 601 E.

THE FAILURE RESULTED IN THE LIFTGATE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRONIC MODULES IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY SERVICED PER A MANUFACTURER'S COMMUNICATION (G-208314) AND FURTHER ASSISTANCE WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000.

CADILLAC HAS REFUSED TO DO THE FACTORY RECALLS DO TO THE FACT THAT THE CARS HAS A REBUILT TITLE. HOW CAN THIS LIMIT THEM TO NOT FIXING FACTORY RECALLED PARTS THAT WHERE NOT DAMAGED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT HEARD A THUMPING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JBA CHEVROLET DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUSPENSION FAILED AND THE HEAD LAMPS WERE LEAKING. THE SUSPENSION AND HEAD LAMPS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

I OWN A 2011 CADILLAC SRX 66,000 MILES, IT HAS BEEN IN OUR FAMILY SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW AT CAMARGO CADILLAC. I TOOK IT IN TODAY FOR SIMPLE OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. I WAS INFORMED BY PHONE THAT MY HEADLIGHT WAS OUT ON THE DRIVER SIDE, NEWS TO ME. THIS CAR HAS A CATASTROPHIC DEFECT IN THE HEADLAMPS AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE TO EXPERIENCE IT. THERE ARE NUMEROUSREPORTS OF THIS ISSUE ONLINE, WHERE CONDENSATION BUILDS IN HEADLAMP AND CAUSES FAILURE. AM I NOT SUPPOSE TO DRIVE MY LUXURY VEHICLE IN THE RAIN OR TAKE IT TO THE CAR WASH? I FIRST EXPERIENCED THIS ON MY PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT IN LATE 2015, LIGHT FAILED WHILE DRIVING AND THE WHOLE HEADLAMP HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOW A YEAR LATER WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE DRIVER SIDE. I ASSUME THIS WILL FALL ON DEAF EARS AS NO ONE WANTS TO DO ANYTHING TO ASSIST WITH THIS ISSUE FROM DEALERS TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE. 1300.00 FORA NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR SECOND TIME ON A CAR 6 YEARS OLD, UNHEARD OF ! I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL VEHICLES AT THE AGE OF 46, AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO HAVE 1 LET ALONE 2 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S REPLACED. GM HAS AN ISSUE AND SHOULD OWN UP TO IT ! .WHAT WAS EVEN MORE AGGRAVATING WAS THE NON-CHALANT ATTITUDE AT THEJEFF WYLER CADILLAC DEALERSHIP AND WITH GMCUSTOMER SERVICE, AS IF THIS WAS NORMAL AND I WAS CRAZY. HONESTLY TAKE A POLE OF GM EMPLOYEES HOW MANY OF THEM /OR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE HAD / AND WOULD BE OKAY WITHPAYING FOR 2 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S REPLACEMENTS ON THEIR 6 YEAR OLD LUXURY VEHICLE ?????

DRAINAGE TUBES IN CARS WITH SUNROOFS ARE CLOGGING AND SHORTING OUT THE LIFT GATE MODULE WHICH COULD CAUSE OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS OR POSSIBLE A MELTDOWN OR FIRE.. I BOUGHT ONE MODULE AND THE DEALERSHIP BOUGHT THE SECOND ONE THIS WEEK. SINCE THIS OCCURRED WITHIN THE FIRST 30 DAYS I OWNED THE CAR, LUCKILY THE DEALERSHIP COVERED IT. CADILLAC REFUSES TO ADMIT THE DESIGN IS POOR AND WILL NOT HELP CONSUMERS WITH THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH REPAIRS (PER THE CONVERSATION I HAD WITH THEM TODAY) IF YOU LOOK ON YOUTUBE OR OTHER SITES FOR CADILLAC OWNERS, YOU WILL SEE HOW MANY SRX'S IT INVOLVES. IT'S WELL OVER $500 TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED DEPENDING UPON THE DEALERSHIP/PRICE OF MODULE/LABOR COSTS. PLEASE CONSIDER A RECALL. THANK YOU.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE ACCELERATION OF MY SRX, THIS PROBLEM MOSTLY OCCURS WHEN I AM ALMOST AT A COMPLETE STOP THEN I ACCELERATE AND NOTHING, IT ALMOST MAKES ME THINK THE VEHICLE HAS DIED. I CAN ALSO FEEL A MILD CLUNK WHEN LETTING MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED TO HAVE THE TCM REPROGRAMMED, SO I AGREED TO THE REPAIR. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT REPAIR DID NOTHING TO HELP THE ISSUE. I BOUGHT THE CAR PREOWNED AND DIDNT NOTICE THE ISSUE FOR ABOUT A MONTH OR SO AFTER THE PURCHASE. THE ISSUE SEEMS INTERMITTENT, BUT WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN IT IS SCARY. ESPECIALLY WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE CAR DOESN'T ACCELERATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS EXCESSIVE WATER ENTERING THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE SUN ROOF DRAINAGE LINES. DUE TO THE MOISTURE FROM THE WATER IN THE VEHICLE, THE DEFROSTER BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE TRUNK RELEASE BUTTON BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN ROOF DRAIN LINES WERE CLEANED AND REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

WATER INTRUSION INTO HEADLAMP CAUSED BALLAST AND BULB TO SHORT OUT.

THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT CAR WITH 9000 MILES ON IT THE DEALER CLAIMS IT IS THE TRANSMISSION LEARNING YOUR DRIVING HABITS, I DO NOT AGREE. WHAT HAPPENS IS AT ANY GIVEN TIME WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PUSHED THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION WILL HESITATE. THIS IS HAPPENING WITH MORE FREQUENCY AND MORE LAG TIME. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE MERGING AT 50 MPH OR TURNING RIGHT ON RED. THE DEALER ALSO CLAIMS THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT. AS A ASE CERTIFIED MASTER ADVANCE LEVEL TECHNICIAN WITH 35 YEARS EXPERIENCE I BELIEVE THIS IS A SOFTWARE OR PROGRAMING PROBLEM AND CAN ONLY BE REPAIRED BY GM ,BUT DOUBT THAT WILL HAPPEN TILL PEOPLE DIE. THESE CARS ARE LOSING A LOT OF RESALE VALUE AS THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES TO GROW AND IS MORE WELL KNOWN, THIS I LEARNED FIRST HAND WHEN I TRIED TO TRADE-IN FOR NEW.
