While trying to enter the vehicle the door handle came off in our hands not allowing us to enter the vehicle on a busy street. I contacted gm who has refused to replace it stating that my vehicle is out of warranty. However, given the overwhelming number of owners with this same issue, this is a design flaw and owners shouldn't have to pay for this $300 repair.

I was just going on a strat street at 25mpr . All at once all the rear airbags deployed and on star called to see if I was ok . I have tried to work it out with gm and I was told a sensor found a problem but wouldn't tell me what . My children have to ride in this SUV. Please help if you look on the internet gm is having airbag problems with Cadillac esc. . . .

Right rear ext door handle broke. Due to this I was unable to get my child out of the seat he was in. This defect could prevent emergency exit from a vehicle. Per Cadillac forums this has been a well known defect in the part since mid 2007 and effect vehicles at all mileages.

Passenger side front exterior door handle broke loose from the body of the vehicle. I contacted the dealer for repairs and was quoted $300+ for the repair. I looked online and was surprised that this is an issue for numerous owners. So I contacted Cadillac, and was initially told it was under warranty, and to take it in to the dealer for repairs at no cost to me. After taking off work, was told by the dealer that this was not true, when actuality the interior handles are the actual handles under warranty for the chrome pealing. At this point the chrome on the interior handles were not a concern of mine. After going back and forth with gm/Cadillac and my local dealer for a couple of months, I bought a replacement handle and did the repair myself. About a year later the passenger side rear exterior door handle separated from the body, I contact Cadillac to make a complaint, I do get a call back, the rep ask me what do I want them to do, I say " it would be great if they knowing this is a ongoing issue that they pay for the repairs", I was told " this is not a safety issue and doesn't fit the category of having a recall issued", I stated well if I was in an accident, and someone needed to open the door from the outside, is this not a safety issue? I was basically told no. Again they ask what do you want us to do? I said well, this is my second handle that has broken, at least pay some portion of it, I was told that is left up to the dealer to decide. When my first handle broke, I tried to negotiate with the dealer to bring the cost down, with no success. So I let the rep. , know just annotate this as a complaint. I again went on the internet and purchased a handle and did the repair myself. The handles can be found for less than $50 (with a warranty) and take about 30 min. To install. My interior handle were never replaced, go figure, no longer under warranty.
