The thermostat has malfunctioned twice in 2 years. Driving vehicle and dash warning" steering assist is reduced drive with care", also the temperature gauge was showing cold and this was after driving for over 30 minutes. Contacted local dealer and was informed this is a known problem with the thermostat sticking open. My brakes are sticking often and my car often jumps hard when I put it in reverse.
To recall department, I purchased the above car in Jan 2021 since that time I had to take this car in for repairs 3 times concerning steering brake problem ane reducing speed and also the thermostat problem. In reviewing this the consumer reports I found out that this was one of the worst years of making the Xt5 and a recall was done for 2017 but for the cars that was manufactory in 2016. If a car get on the dealers floor in 2017 most likely it was manufactured in 2016. So I want to know why my car hasn't been notifty for a recall and I'm having to take this car to the shop on three or four occasions for the same problem. I would like to somebody to look into this situation and reimburse me for my out of pocket expensive. This should be a manufactory problem and gm should be doing the repairs for free. Please feel free to contact me for any additional questions or concerns. Rosette jackson rhillztc@gmail. Com.
The contact owns a 2017 Cadillac Xt5. The contact stated that the rear passenger's side brake line was broken. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the rear passenger's side brake line needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 66,000.
Since 6/2022 and again 7/2022, 10/25/22 1/31/23 constantly stating service error codes for stabiltrak, antilock brakes, and brake assist not functioning and need service urgently. However when I take it to the dealership they find nothing wrong and further investigated at another Cadillac dealership they also state they found nothing. These errors continue to pop up intermittently and my Cadillac app reports them as needing service.
The vehicle's park brake system failed to actuate resulting in unsafe parking of vehicle on hills/slopes. The service park brake light activated on the dash. Vehicle was taken to dealership to investigate. They confirmed park brake system was not working. This vehicle has electronic actuators for the park brake function on each rear wheel. The dealership did not find any defective components but determined the vehicle software was the root cause. The software was reset and the system now performs as intended. I am very concerned that a software failure associated with a key parking brake safety system can occur with no known cause.

Squeaky brakes. Dealer says it's considered an annoyance. Occurs each time the vehicle is in use.
Tl the contact owns a 2017 Cadillac Xt5. When the brake pedal was depressed, it traveled to the floorboard and the gear shifter would not move into park. Also, the service engine, service stabilitrak, service transmission, and entire instrument panel warning indicators were illuminated. The battery was disconnected and reconnected and the vehicle was able to shift into park; however, it unintentionally went back into drive. The vehicle was towed to plaza Cadillac (8893 us-441, leesburg, FL 34788, (352) 787-1323) where the chassis control, engine, transmission, and range control modules were reprogrammed. After the repair, the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard when placing the gear shifter in park. Also, while driving 40 mph, the vehicle stalled while rolling to a complete stop. The vehicle was pulled over to the side of the road where it was restarted and functioned normally. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer where the failure could not be replicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and informed the contact that other vehicles were experiencing the same failure. The failure mileage was 16,000.
After sitting for more than 1 hour, the brakes squeal until I have applied the brakes for 5-8 times.
