On the interstate (I-74 in indiana) traveling at 70mph the rear toe link broke. My car swayed terribly back and forth and almost spun out completely. I was able to get it to a repair shop (not Cadillac) right off the highway. They said the rear toe link was broken and that caused the problem. When I called my local dealer Cadillac said back in 2015 (before I owned the vehicle) there was a recall and the toe links were "adjusted". Clearly the problem was not fixed. If there were any other cars even remotely close to me this could have had devastating consequences. The car is now in the shop (at some random shop in indiana) getting fixed but Cadillac has said they will not cover the repair cost. I do not have any documentation yet but will provide it once the car is fixed.

Brought my 2010 Cadillac Srx to king o'rourke Cadillac in smithtown, NY on Jan 13,2015 for recall issue concerning the rear toe link, gm recall #14557. Car was there 2 days taking care of 4 recall issues. About 4 weeks and roughly 1000 miles later, on Friday February 20, 2015, I used the vehicle to go to the doctors and noticed no problems on the way. My 7yr old son was with me. From the doctors I proceeded to my hairdresser, still no issues. At some point on the way home after leaving the hairdresser, I noticed that the car felt abnormally "floaty" and was swaying over bumps. I stopped at a 7-11 on hospital road and nys rt 27 in east patchogue where I attempted to inspect what I could on the vehicle, mostly the condition of the tires. I then left 7-11 and proceeded to enter the on ramp for nys rt27 east. As I accelerated in the on ramp, the vehicle started swaying more. After that I heard a metallic sound and the rear of the car started to jackknife. I was able to slow down and a police officer entering the highway behind me stopped to offer aid. After a quick look, he stated that the car had a broken axle. He left since I had already contacted my husband and he was on his way. My husband arrived shorty thereafter and informed me that he called for a tow truck. While waiting for roadside service to arrive he also inspected the vehicle and also took photos. He said the right rear toe link, which was supposed to have been inspected and replaced as necessary as per the recall notice at king o'rourke 4 weeks earlier had separated. He also indicated that the links were not replaced and failed due to damaged threading. This was confirmed by the mechanic that towed the car to my home. While gm corporate is trying to be helpful in this situation, kathy at king o'rourke is claiming they are not responsible saying "as the second owner of the car I cannot expect a new part. ".
