Brake, abs, wrench, check engine lights all began intermittently coming on. Before we could bring it into the dealer, it went into "limp mode" while at a very dangerous time and would not move forward while in "drive". Had to abandon the car in a roadside parking lot. Finally able to get it to the dealer and after their inspection we were told it was not repairable. The ebcm module (part of the brake system) was defective and no parts existed. When we pressed the dealer, no other options or resolutions were offered. Even if a part could be found at ebay, re-manufacturers, or junk yards, they would not touch it. I have had not luck finding a part, re-manufacturer, or repair shop that could be of any help. Right now it is a worthless piece of junk. All correspondence with the dealer has been verbal to this point.
Case #: [xxx] ] I have a 2016 Cadillac Srx (VIN: [xxx] ) that I have owned for 8 years. Throughout this period, I have encountered some minor issues that were easily remedied. On [xxx], I started my car and some warning light came on. •the abs light •the power steering light •the anti-skid traction light I contacted scranton motors in vernon, CT and was told I had a faulty brake module: part number 20842710. Furthermore, I was told that this part number has been discontinued and no longer available. I contacted Cadillac customer care and spoke to customer service rep alegra 866-790-5600 at extension 5918222 and she gave me a list of suppliers who may have this part. Again, I was told that this part was discontinued. The parts department had to go to the aftermarket to see if they could locate this part. It was found on ebay. I was told that the part could be installed but there is no guarantee that it would work. I was left with no choice but to have the part installed knowing that I would be driving an unsafe vehicle that could malfunction at any time. As stated earlier this vehicle is about 8 years and what I do not understand is why Cadillac would stop production on such a critical part that could cause physical harm to its passengers. In doing some investigating I found the Cadillac forum in which other owners experience the same problem. I have owned 4 Cadillacs over the last 9 years and for the most part I have been very happy with their performance. It appears to me that Cadillac should take some responsibility and compensate me for not producing a safe vehicle to drive. The trade in value according to kelley blue. Book is $14,000 and therefore, I should be reimbursed accordingly on December 12, 2024, I received a phone call from scranton motors advising me that the part that they had received from ebay did not work. Therefore, I cannot operate this vehicle and it is totally useless. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I was sitting at a traffic light stationary on a city street with a steep hill. I had my foot on the break waiting for the light to turn green. My breaks started to vibrate and then went out completely and I rolled back into the car behind me.
