All of a sudden when I started my car, the lights flickered constantly, the power steering failed, and it blew my starter and fairly new battery. I was so scared; I thought it was going to catch on fire because it smelled burnt. And I was on [XXX] in Hubbard Ohio, and I was trying to get to [XXX] and safety to which I did. THANK Goodness for AAA. I was told this happened because of a plug in wiring to heat or warm the washer fluid. It is available for inspection. My safety was impacted because, I had no power steering, flickering lights and smell of burnt stuff. My problem was fixed by an independent shop. My vehicle was not inspected by a GM dealer or my insurance. Was inspected by an independent shop that it was towed to. Warnings prior to incident: I would turn the ignition and nothing. But that would only happen several weeks apart. I thought maybe the starter was going, but it was odd because it was so many weeks far apart that it would happen. It might have been a total of 4 times since October of 2024. During the incident, power steering warning came on, charging system came on and the car sounded like it was barely running.

Airbag warning light and Service Air Bag on dash. Code B0087-00 Left Rear SIS. Replaced sensor, still getting warning. Sensor is in LR door. Research revealed possible known issue with bending fatigue from routine door open/close motion and subpar wire size/material causing wire failure. Opened wire harness at pillar and green/black wire was completely separated at typical bending point. Light blue wire was not visibly broken (insulation still intact) but the wire within was broken upon removal of insulation. These are the two wires (light blue and green/black) to the impact sensor. Please investigate GM use of substandard or undersize wiring in entire SRS system especially at bending fatigue potential failure points. Three pictures attached - one picture showing initial finding of green/black broken wire but light blue still visibly intact (insulation only), one picture showing same in close up, one picture showing both wires are not intact (light blue wire was inspected further and determined insulation intact but wire within was not intact) and insulated separated with fingernail pressure only. Wires should not fail within typical lifetime of a vehicle. Uncertain on operation of system, but could short between two wires and/or grounding cause airbag to deploy without accident/at random causing personal injury to occupants and/or an accident because of random deployment? Date of incident is when wiring issue was discovered and pictures taken upon discovery.

Passenger presence module malfunction is intermittent. When the malfunction occurs there is a warning light plus "Service Airbag" on the instrument panel. Sometimes the light and warning go off after several minutes, sometimes stays on for days. In Virginia presence of this warning during an annual safety inspection is considered a failure. The vehicle in question is a 2010 Cadillac CTS-V with heated/cooled Recaro seats. Dealership has confirmed that the issue is the module but says the module is not available or on backorder (for years). Issue was first reported to dealer in 2018 and again in 2022 with no resolution. Estimated repair cost is in excess of $1500.

Every time it rains, the inside of my vehicle floods through the ceiling and floors. This is a manufacture defect that is outside of my control. This is a safety issue because it causes mold and mildew in the vehicle which is a hazard to inhale. I'm also concerned that the possibility exist for an electrical hazard.

Diag: DIAGNOSIS c/s service air bag error message on display. Code DTC B0014- Driver side air bag deployment loop- high resistance. Could not get repaired. Per Dealership the part needed is "discontinued". Non- working airbags are a huge concern. I think that parts for airbags should have to be produced if a vehicle needs serviced for such a problem! The vehicle is in excellent condition overall and should last many more years but this very much needed part for safety isn't even available! That is not right!!! No accident or incident has occurred but this issue is very much a concern.

I need some help getting Foundation to adjust the steering column at no cost to me. My Cadillac is Out of Warranty.

There needs to be a better system on alerting used car buyers. When I purchased my car from Carvana used in 2017 at 83k-ish miles, I had no idea that there was an extended 10 yr/120k warranty on some models of GM vehicles. I have been experiencing issues with my car and just learning 1 yr and 30k miles too late that there were known issues, and that my issues most likely were related to the timing chain. Timing chains aren't generally something that wear out by 100k - had I been made aware of that when I purchased the car, then that would have been the first course of action. I checked the VIN, no recalls, but no extended warranty alerts either. Anyone else having issues would not have known other year models were experiencing problems that could have affected different year models as well. I have researched my cars issues and I have taken it to mechanics- even to a Chevrolet dealer when I first bought it. Absolutely no mention of this, until I just happened to stumble on a Cadillac forum post from 2019 at 1 am 6/2/2021. Now I am the almost owner of a car that books out at maybe $5k with over $2k worth of work that is needed. It sits while I make payments. With all the technology, there should be some way for car dealerships to have to give a new owner any updated information regarding any vehicle related to the one they are purchasing.

I have read many forums with this exact problem. my car will get out of gear when I'm at a stop. it will act as if it was in neutral. there are no codes that tell you what IS wrong and so many people have found that the issue IS that the automatic transmission clutch goes bad. I only have 88K miles on my car and so many people seam to have the exact SE problem as I am.

In january chevrolet burien did servicing on my vehicle. When I picked up my vehicle after 3 weeks of them having it; they gave it to me with a flat tire with several studs in my right front tire and there was an inch of water on the inside of the vehicle. I requested management and they denied me and forced me to move my vehicle off the property in fear of my life. The electrical components on the inside are no longer usable. There was mold all over the inside that seriously effected my asthma. Their management still has not contacted me about remedying this issue. They also damaged my glove box so that the water that they let leak into my vehicle wouldn't 'build up' and cause more damage so they were completely aware that they were letting my car flood while storing it.

2010 cadillac CTS4 premium 3.6 wagon I replaced the rear prop shaft of the AWD system in january 2018. I now am having issues with the rear prop shaft yet again, not 2 years later. I believe the driveshaft carrier bearing IS failing again (same as before)! with approximately 49K miles on it. I cannot believe that I have to replace this same item again. after having to replace the rear differential twice on this vehicle, I now believe gm has no clue to make a reliable AWD vehicle. worst car ever.

My rear tail lights for my wagon have separated from the top of the car due to poor design. spoke with cadillac & gm, both refuse to believe it's a design flaw on the wagon models. both stated car out of warranty due to mileage/year. asked if they could tell me what was used to attach lamps to vehicle, neither has a clue. Dealer wants $2100 to replace, but no guarantee that it won't happen again. since january 2019, car has been to dealer 3 times for car not starting on 1ST try. first time, negative battery cable tightened, 2ND time replaced positive battery cable, 3RD time dealer has no idea as to what IS causing the issue. all lights on dash come on, engine does not turn over while parked. It will start on the 2ND try, sometimes it hesitates. dealer told me to continue to monitor until vehicle breaks down.

My car alarm keeps beeping for no reason when parked. As soon as I start the car, the airbag light goes on. The dashboard warning light says that my tire IS flat; so, I changed all four tires, and it's still giving drastically inaccurate readings often. Sometimes it says that my tire IS flat-- 0 pressure, and sometimes, it says that it has low pressure. My programmed radio stations keep deleting from memory.

When driving in my normal seated position I find that transitioning from the accelerator pedal to the brake pedal can be uncomfortable at the least to almost dangerous.the left edge of the right foot almost always gets caught behind the right edge of the brake pedal.it would appear to me that the brake pedal IS too close to the throttle pedal. Has this issue ever come up before? I've talked to others who have driven these models and the problem has been noticed.if the right foot IS placed more to the right (more in line with the accelerator pedal|) it IS not a problem.but isn't a normal position for me as I would assume for other drivers.i'm sure that shoe size or style would make a difference. But in a confined are like these cars have (the console seems wider to allow for the transmission position) that an allowance for more room between pedals should have been made. Dave
