| Electronic Stability Control problems |
After I got to work and parked my car I went back to get my coffee mug when it appeared that my car was lowered to the ground as if all the air went out of all of the tires. The air suspension I suppose. Also, my display screen has gone out twice since I bought the car six years ago.
Service side detection system alert in dic. While driving in city, multiple alerts in dash board and intermittent black out of all gages and indictors totally unpredictable, unreliable and unsafe.
While I'm driving even like 50 mile hit the break for a reason car completely stalled no power for break or steering or anything you cannot move the car anyplace I almost hit the person in front of me and I almost got hit in the back it has been the end of last year and it keeps happening. Recently I took it to the tailor five times he had no idea what is that.
Abs, traction control light come on when driving. Front camera error, side detection off comes on seems to really be affected by cold temps. Glass over control station also has hairline cracks all the way around that occurred during or -degree weather this winter unsure of date.
I purchased this vehicle October 20th 2017 and within 2 weeks the service driver assistance system light came on. Took it to dealer was told was old code and erased a few days later same message came on was told dash was cleared and gm case filed. A few days later light came on for 3rd time. Dealer toyed us around about fixing it but finally supposedly did with new sensors in seat. Since then I have been having major electrical issues with my abs system and key fob. Key fob becomes unresponsive and abs light comes on and off. Took car to dealership was told abs sensor was supposedly broke and not covered under warrentee and they refused to fix the issue for me. I am very affraid to drive the vehicle it sits parked in my yard and I paid over 20k for it. I feel I have been taken advantage of because I have a disability with my speech. I have documentation about key fob and abs I can send if needed. The car was driving when the abs light came on went off and traction control came on then off then back on. The key fob wouldnt work when trying to turn car off because it has push button the fob controlls starting it and turning it off.
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.
I purchased this car used in 2/2017, great car, until it starts acting up, it doesn't matter what speed or distance you are going, all the lights start flashing and loses speed till it completely stops and will not turn back on. You unplug the battery and take all the fuses out, plug battery back in and insert all fuses and it will restart. It will leave you stranded anywhere, after a week of purchase, took it back to dealership, they supposedly worked on it, only had 30 days of warranty, a few months later started again and will randomly do it. It is not a reliable car and dangerous, I have drove it here in city limits only, I do not trust it to leave town.
