1 Frame Rust problem of the 2004 Cadillac SRX

Failure Date: 01/30/2019

So many rusted frame complaints should have warranted a recall. In my case a frame should not have rusted badly in less than a year . Many even show on you -tube trying to fix rusted frames because no one is listening. Underbody coating actually should have been added . Thin sheet metal sections are the worst parts .

2 Frame Rust problem of the 2005 Cadillac SRX

Failure Date: 12/28/2016

Cadillac issued a TSB in April 2012 (TSB #pit-3749d), which is also noted as NHTSA id #10037570 regarding rust and frame corrosion. My 2005 Cadillac Srx is experiencing this issue, and I was just quoted $5700 to repair the manufacturing defect. Why isn't the NHTSA requiring a recall if the structural frame of the car is eroding away? I can send you all my correspondence with Cadillac corporate over the past two weeks.

4 Frame Rust problem of the 2004 Cadillac SRX

Failure Date: 06/12/2013

I have been hearing a rattle(front end) for 2 years while driving the vehicle and inspected by jacking up car and visually inspecting. When I was driving the car on the highway the steering wheel will jerk to the right and want to go to another lane and the stability control light will come on. I found a inch and a half gap in frame that is rusted and was never welded. The gap is under the drivers side frame rail under car. It appears to have been there for a long time due to metal fatigue and rust. I took pictures of the area . The frame could break due to this and makes the vehicle a safety hazard. I do feel safe to drive this car and the idea of other vehicles with this defect as I have searched online and founds others with the same complaint. I also do not feel safe selling this car as it is a danger on the road. Please me contact me by email. Thank you.
