SERVICE BRAKES, SEATS, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BRAKES ARE CONSTANTLY LOCKING UP AS I DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THE LIGHTS ARE DEFECTED. I'VE REPLACED THE BULBS NUMEROUS TIMES BUT YOU STILL CAN'T SEE HOW TO DRIVE AT NIGHT TIME. ALSO, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE REAR SUSPENSION.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
LIGHTING ASSEMBLY IS COMPLETELY OUT ON VEHICLE. I CAN ONLY DRIVE WITH BRIGHT LIGHTS ON. I HAVE WENT OFF THE ROAD SEVERAL TIMES,DUE TO LIGHTING. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CHECKS FROM CADILLAC AND WAS TOLD I NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHTING ASSEMBLY, BUT IS A WASTE BECAUSE IT WILL GO OUT AGAIN IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS.

THE LOW BEAMS ON THIS VEHICLE CREATE A DRIVING HAZARD AT NIGHT. THERE LITERALLY ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS JUST BY DOING A GOOGLE SEARCH. SEE ALSO CARPROBLEMZOO.COM GM/CADILLAC HAS NO FIX. THE LIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT PROPERLY AND IN DARK AREAS YOU CAN'T TELL AT TIMES THAT THE LIGHTS ARE WORKING. GM SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I REPLACED THE HALOGEN LIGHTS WITH NEW HALOGENS AND NO DIFFERENCE. I THEN UPGRADED HALOGENS TO LED BULBS WITH A MINIMAL FIX. PLEASE TAKE THESE ISSUES SERIOUSLY. PEOPLE HAVE WRITTEN ONLINE THAT THEY CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THE ONLY SAFE MEASURE IS TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS, WHICH IS NOT POSSIBLE. THIS PROBLEM IS SYSTEMIC WITH THE LUXURY EDITION CADILLAC SRX. I THINK IT'S THE LENS OR ELECTRICAL. I THINK THIS IS THE REASON THAT THE 2016 SRX HAS HID HEADLIGHTS. NUMEROUS WEBSITES INDICATE COMPLAINTS FROM DRIVERS WHO SAY THAT THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIPS ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE BUT ALSO SAY THAT GM HAS NOT ISSUED A FIX. DEALERSHIPS WANT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS UP TO OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS TO FIX IT, BUT THEY ALSO STATE THAT THE FIX MIGHT NOT WORK. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS. IT IS TRULY A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HOLD GM ACCOUNTABLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN DRIVING. IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AND TO SEE PEOPLE WALKING ACROSS THE STREET AND TO SEE PAINT LINES. THE LIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT SOLIDLY AND WIDELY AS DO OTHER MAKES OF VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. I AM TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 2/2/19 TO ASK THEM TO ASSESS THE SITUATION.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
MY WIFE AND I OWN A 2013 CADILLAC SRX AND WHEN WE USE THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS THEY DON'T PROVIDE ENOUGH ILLUMINATION TO ALLOW US TO SEE THE HIGHWAY, FORCING US TO USE THE HIGH BEAMS BUT WE HAVE TO SWITCH BACK TO LOW BEAMS WHEN WE APPROACH A VEHICLE OR COME WITHIN A COUPLE CAR LENGTHS BEHIND. I HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERNET READING ABOUT HOW THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL CADILLAC. THIS IS MY FIRST CADILLAC AND I WILL HAVE TO SAY WILL BE MY LAST. SUPPOSEDLY ALL DEALERS ARE FORCING THE OWNERS TO ABSORB THE REPAIR COST THEMSELVES ($1500.00 TO $1700.00) I HAVE YET TO TAKE MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND DOUBT SERIOUSLY IF MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WITH COST GARD WILL DO ANY GOOD. I'M REALLY SURPRISED AT THE RESPONSE THAT GM HAS TAKEN ON THIS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. WE DREAD DRIVING THE CAR AT NIGHT, WE ARE CONSTANTLY HAVING TO DRIVE WITH OUR HIGH BEAMS ON. WOULD YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM

FRONT LIGHTS ARE NOT STRONGLY LIT AT TIMES. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS EXTREMELY DARK OUT SIDE. WHEN IT IS NOT SO DARK OUTSIDE THE LIGHTS WORK PERFECT. IN EXTREME DARK NIGHTS MUST USE THE HIGH BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE ROADS

POWER TRAIN
THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAS FAILED. THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, SO I TOOK MY CAR IN TO BE CHECKED. THE PART HAS BEEN ON BACK ORDER FOR 3 WEEKS AND I AM NOW BEING TOLD IT WILL BE 2+ MORE WEEKS BEFORE I WILL HEAR ANYTHING, ALONG WITH ALL OTHER GM CUSTOMERS IN THE COUNTRY THAT ARE WAITING FOR THIS PART. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY CADILLAC THERE IS NO SPECIFIC DATE ON ITS ARRIVAL. SHOULD THIS NOT BE A RECALL ITEM IF THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THIS LONG? I AM NOT SURE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR IT AS OF YET. I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT WITH LITTLE HELP FROM CADILLAC.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH LIGHTS ON DIM YOU CAN BARELY SEE ANYTHING. IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO SEE ANYTHING LIGHTS MUST BE ON BRIGHT, IF MEETING ANOTHER DRIVER THIS MAKES FOR A POSSIBLE HOSTILE INTERACTION AS THE APPROACHING DRIVER IS BLINDED BY THE BRIGHTNESS OF LIGHTS. I TOOK MY CAR TO SHOP ONLY TO BE INFORMED IT IS A DEFECT WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE STARTING WITH 2010 MODELS. I WAS TOLD THE PRICE STARTS AT AROUND $1000.00 FOR A REPLACEMENT CLIP WITH THE PROBABILITY THAT LIGHTS WILL DO SAME THING😯. LIGHTS ARE NOT BLOWN BUT INSTEAD IT IS A DEFECT OF MANUFACTURER. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. NIGHT DRIVING IS A MUST FOR SOME OF US AND THE FEELING OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE VERY WELL WITH LIGHTS ON DIM OR MAKING OTHER DRIVERS MAD AND POSSIBLY RESULTING IN AN ACT OF ROAD RAGE MAKES US FEEL VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE BEEN A CADILLAC DRIVER ALL MY LIFE AND FEEL THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE . WE SHOULD NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR TRYING TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IN ALL HONESTY IS NOT OUR FAULT AND WILL ONLY RESULT IN SPENDING MONEY THAT IS ONLY GOING TOWARD A TEMPORARY FIX STILL. PLEASE MAKE THIS RIGHT.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2015 CADILLAC SRX LUXURY CROSSOVER SUV (50,000 MILES). I NOTICED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THAT THE HEADLIGHTS BARELY ILLUMINATE THE ROAD. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL CADILLAC DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE WITH SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL THAT INFORMED ME THAT THIS ISSUE WAS SYSTEMIC THROUGHOUT THE 2010-2015 YEAR SRX MODELS. THIS PROBLEM IS SO CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT SUCH SIMILAR MODELS, AND YET I AM SUPPOSE TO SHELL OUT $1300 TO FIX A KNOWN ISSUE? I AM WILLING TO PAY TO REPLACE THE LAMPS BUT GM NEEDS TO DO THEIR PART AND FIX THE FAULTY COMPONENT (THAT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY) THAT IS CAUSING DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS AND CONSTANT ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE.

PURCHASED FACTORY CERTIFIED 2015 CADILLAC SRX 11/2018. IN 12/2018 ONE DIM HEADLIGHT STOPPED WORKING. IN 1/2018 2ND DIM HEADLIGHT QUIT WORKING MAKIN IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WITHOUT BRIGHT LIGHTS. FOG LAMPS ALSO STOPPED WORKING. TRULY A SAFETY MATTER. SEARCH OF INTERNET SHOWS MANY OTHER SRX'S WITH SAME PROBLEM WITH NO FACTORY FIX. CLASS ACTION SUIT FILED IN CALIFORNIA ONLY. PROBLEM IS MOISTURE ENTERING HOUSING WHERE BULBS ARE MOUNTED. CADILLAC DEALER COULD NOT STATE WHY DIM HEADLIGHTS AND FOG LIGHTS DON'T WORK. MAKES DRIVING HAZARDOUS WHEN BRIGHT HEADLIGHTS CAN'T BE USED. DIM HEADLIGHTS AND FOG LIGHTS DO NOT WORK AT ALL.

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY COLLECTS MOISTURE WHICH CAUSES HEADLIGHT BULB TO BECOME INOPERABLE. HAD THE BULB REPAIRED LAST YEAR AND NOW THE ASSEMBLY IS FULL OF MOISTURE AND BULB IS NOT WORKING AGAIN. CAN NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT DUE TO VISIBILITY OF THE ROAD FOR THE DRIVER AND OTHER VEHICLES NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. I CALLED A CADILLAC DEALER AND THEY RECOGNIZED AND ADMITTED IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A WAY TO REPAIR IT. THEY SAID THEY TRIED REPLACING THE BULBS AND OTHER SRX'S BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AND/OR IN INCLEMENT WEATHER. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON. THE CAR CANNOT BE SAFELY DRIVEN AT NIGHT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM AND RECOMMEND A SOLUTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT AFFECTING THE SAFETY DRIVERS AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I THINK IT IS APPALLING THAT GM/CADILLAC CANNOT PROVIDE A FIX FOR THIS.
