5 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 09/20/2019

Cue information system failure. This system failure presents a safety issue being that the navigation system does not work and the hands free also does not work. There seems to be a lot of system failures so, I'm sure that there are a lot more concerned owners.

6 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 01/24/2019

Cadillac cue system that controls all functions of the vent, air defrost temp, radio, windows, and many other systems of the auto, does not function or respond to touch on the touch screen, this is a safety problem for vision in bad weather ,this is a constant problem with most Cadillac Xts autos.

7 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 12/18/2017

My Cadillac cue touchsense touch screen is no longer functioning at any time, sitting still or while the vehicle is in motion. The screen is spider webbed (delamination of conductive layer of material behind the glass) and no longer allows me to set things like the collision avoidance, auto-braking and lane departure options as well as many other non-safety related features. This is clearly a manufacturing defect and I have read at one time Cadillac had a backlog of over 4000 vehicles waiting on replacement cue modules but yet no voluntary recall. Hopefully the ntsha can look into this matter and require Cadillac to correct this problem for owners no longer under warranty since some functions set with the touch screen are related to vehicle safety (collision avoidance, auto-braking and lane departure).

8 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 11/13/2017

Electric power steering goes out and makes the car impossible to steer or maneuver. Check engine light comes on while in motion and the car loses speed causing other cars to almost rear end you on city streets.

9 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 08/20/2017

Cue (Cadillac user experience) system not responsive in a 3 year old car with 92,000miles. Although the internet is full of complaints, Cadillac would not assume full responsibility to replace part. I was offered a discount (about 20% off) to replace this essential electrical component that should never fail. "the first of its kind technology" that "should serve as a benchmark for the automotive industry" is a complete failure that make the car not usable. The cue system should be a recalled and replaced by Cadillac as it impacts essentials such as air conditioning, vehicle setting applications, backup camera, bluetooth, navigation etc. The gm executive office made it sound that is consumable and is the owner's problem.

10 Electrical System problem
