2 timing chains within 8 months just put the second one in on Saturday and 4 days later the car is making the same noise again. I have spoke to many people about this and they are telling me this is a problem with this motor. The second time the timing chain went I was driving down route 55 in NJ and the car shut off and would not start the first time it went I was in the driveway and would not stay running. I do not have the money to keep putting in this or the funds to get another car I expect when I pit money into the car I don't expect it to start running the way it was when the timing chain went.

I was driving my vehicle once again, and the engine reduced power came up on the screen. This happened once on the freeway driving 70 miles per, the vehicle's speed went down all the way to 20 miles per hour, I had to pull over because it lost power then it shut off. This is very dangerous I could have been seriously hurt or another vehicle could hit me across the freeway. This also happened November 3, 2017, as I was rolling out of the driveway the vehicle cut off in motion. Something is wrong with this vehicle losing power without no notification to the driver until it happens. This needs to be recalled for these 2004 Srx Cadillac vehicles. Also the screens constantly says check stability system, or reduced engine power and traction control. Please this has to be a recall before someone gets killed.

The engine shut down in the middle of the freeway. I had no power to accelerate the car. There was no light on the dashboard to let me know that the car wasn't running. I had hit the brakes and there was no power brake. Then I tried to accelerate. I was going downhill and was able to coast across two lanes of traffic to the side. Mass airflow sensor was bad.
I was driving on i94 west in the passing lane at 72 miles per hour when my engine shut down. The dashboard flashed 72, then 62, and 52 miles with an icon showing that the car was shutting down. Fortunately, traffic allowed me to coast to exit 112 (a marshall, mi rest stop) where I waited 1. 5 hours for a tow. General motors charged me for the tow. It has been two weeks and my car is still with gm for service 45 miles from my home. I am reporting this incident so that you are aware and hopefully it will not happen to others. I was lucky. It was scary and I am still quite shaken. This is an expensive vehicle that is only a year or more in age. It is unacceptable that it has a major defect. I fear for my safety and would prefer a replacement vehicle instead of the one I was driving.
