Two problems related to turn signal have been reported for the 2008 Cadillac DTS. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2008 Cadillac DTS based on all problems reported for the 2008 DTS.
The daytime running lights and front turn signal light sockets in both headlamps have burnt contacts. I took my 2008 Cadillac Dts to the dealer to have the bulbs replaced as my turn signals weren't working. They replaced the bulbs. Two days later they quit working again. I took the car back and they checked it again and informed me that the lamp sockets were burnt and that I would have to replace the entire headlamp assembly because there wasn't a replacement socket available. The cost was going to be approximately $1000 each with labor. I believe this a safety issue and Cadillac should either provide a replacement socket or cover a part of the part and labor. Right now I have the sockets temporarily repaired with paper clips and aluminum foil because on social security I can't afford their cost to fix but I won't drive on the road with no front turn signals and endanger other folks on the road.
Email forwarded about concerns on gm Cadillacs, the turn signal will not turn off unless the vehicle makes a 90 degree turn, was told by dealer that this problem can not be repaired.
