Takata recall I have a Cadillac Srx 2006 with very low mileage and there is definitely an issue with the timing chain setup as well as the vehicles head lighting errors, from my research this is definitely a fault from the company design and could have caused injury or even death.
There is a p008 code that onstar detected and said I may have engine problems. This would enable the car to have performance issues. I called gm customer service and they want me to pay to have another diagnostic test done and does not want to repair my car which I think they should because my car does not have 100,000 miles on it. There should not be engine problems with a car that doesn't even have 100,000 miles yet.
