The contact owns a 2004 Cadillac Cts. While driving and attempting to park the vehicle, the brakes failed to stop the vehicle when the brake pedal was depressed. The contact had to apply extreme pressure to the brake pedal in order to stop. The contact also stated that the liftgate struck the contact in the head several times. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the failure could not be diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.
While entering a parking place, my brakes failed to engage. The abs system warning appeared and also the traction control warning illuminated, as I struck a restraining post. This could have been tragic if a person had been infront of the vehicle. Less than 2 weeks prior to this I had a complete brake service and replacement of all worn equipment. Now I am conscerned for anyone driving this vehicle or anyone walking in front of this vehicle. I took the car back into my local garage to have the brakes rechecked. They found no problem. My plan was to take the car to the gm dealership where I purchased the car, yet, I find that this is a common problem and gm refused to help others with the same problem. They, others with the same problem, spent lots of money and to no avail. The problem has not been repaired at the dealerships and have left the customers very dissatisfied.
Brake failure in Cadillac Cts I have a large amount of information in a pdf that explains our experience as well as documents multiple similar experiences from other individuals. How do I send it to you? the brakes are intermittently completely failing at slow speeds and significant injury to a pedestrian seems inevitable. Please help!!!.
