STEERING
WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE STEERING GOT EXTREMELY STIFF AND I LOST MY POWER STEERING. ON THE (DIC) DRIVERS INFORMATION CENTER THE MESSAGE DISPLAYED " SERVICE STEERING SYS" WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR AND LET IT COOL DOWN, NORMAL STEERING RETURNED. THIS PROBLEM KEEPS RETURNING EVERY DAY OR TWO. AT SLOW SPEED ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN, AS WHEN PARKING. I LOOKED ON LINE AND FOUND OUT THIS ISN'T AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM IN BOTH THE 2009 CTS & STS CADILLAC'S. NOW I HAVE TO TAKE THE CART TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND MY QUESTION IS WILL THE REPAIR BE COVERED AS THE CAR HAS ONLY 36,000 MILES ON IT AS A FACTORY RELATED PROBLEM AS I'M OUT OF THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY. I HAVE HAD CADILLAC'S SINCE 1970 AND NEVER HAD A STEERING PROBLEM WITH ANY OF THEM MOST HAD WELL OVER 200,000 ON THEM WITH NEVER ANY STEERING PROBLEMS. THIS I HAVE TO ADD I HAVE NEVER HAD SO MANY MINOR PROBLEMS WITH ANY CAR I'VE OWNED AS WITH THIS CADILLAC ESPECIALLY WITH SO FEW MILES ON IT AND NOW THAT THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY IS OFF THESE REPAIRS ARE AT MY EXPENSE DON'T THINK I WILL EVER BUY ANOTHER CADILLAC OR ANY GM CAR AGAIN IF THESE REPAIRS ARE NOT DONE AT THE FACTOR'S EXPENCE. *JS

AIR BAGS
I HAD THE AIR BAG HARNESS REPLACED ON THIS VEHICLE 2.5 YEARS AGO ON THIS VEHICLE. THE WARNING LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED AND I'M BEING TOLD IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2008. IF THE FIRST AIRBAG LASTED FOR 5 YEARS FROM YEAR MADE 2006 (WHICH IS NOT VERY LONG). THE ONE THAT WAS REPLACED IN DECEMBER 2011 SHOULD HAVE LASTED LONGER THAN 2.5 YEARS. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THESE ARE DEFECTIVE PARTS AND I DON'T WANT TO BE KILLED OR MAIMED BY THE AIR BAG AND I DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR ANOTHER ONE IN SUCH A SHORT PERIOD. I HAVE HAD ALL THE TIRE MONITORS REPLACED ALSO AND THE TIRE PRESSURE READINGS ARE ALWAYS OFF. WHEN I TAKE THE CAR IN TO BE CHECKED AFTER PAYING A FEE OF COURSE. THEY SAY THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM AND THEY JUST PUT AIR IN THE TIRES. THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP IN THIS MATTER. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING ALONG A CITY ROADWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE'S STABILITY, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE JUST STOPPED, ALMOST CAUSING THE CAR BEHIND ME TO COLLIDE WITH MY VEHICLE. I CALLED THE DEALER, LAWLEY'S GM STORE IN SIERRA VISTA, AZ. WHERE I HAD JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER WHAT HAPPENED...HE SENT A TOW TRUCK TO PICKUP THE VEHICLE AND AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDING REPLACEMENT...I BOUGHT A NEW ONE AND HAD IT INSTALLED. RAN FINE FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER WHICH THE VEHICLE BEGAN STALLING WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPPED WITHOUT ANY WARNING CAUSING THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME HAD TO SWERVE AROUND ME ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS WITH ONCOMING VEHICLES. CALLED THE DEALER AGAIN, HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED IN AND THIS TIME WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLES COMPUTER WAS NOT PROGRAMMED RIGHT AND THAT IT ALSO NEEDED THROTTLE BODY HARNESS...BOUGHT THE HARNESS AND HAD IT INSTALLED AS WELL AS THE DEALER REPROGRAMMING THE COMPUTER. CAR DID WELL FOR A FEW MONTHS WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN (VEHICLE STOPPING UNEXPECTEDLY), THIS TIME APPROACHING A MAJOR CROSSWALK AND ONCE AGAIN CAUSING THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO COME A ABRUPT STOPS, FORTUNATELY A CITY POLICE VEHICLE WAS ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE CROSSWALK AND THE OFFICER WITNESSED WHAT HAPPENED, PUT HIS VEHICLE'S EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON AND CAME OVER TO HELP ME PUSH OUT FROM THE STREET TO A WALGREEN'S PARKING LOT WHERE I ONCE AGAIN CALLED THE DEALER, HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE THROTTLE BODY PIN CONNECTORS HAD TO BE SOLDERED ON WHICH THEY DID. CAR IS RUNNING OK FOR NOW, BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT I MAY BE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE WILL ONCE AGAIN STOP UNEXPECTEDLY AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.THERE ARE CONSUMER POSTS ON THIS PROBLEM ON THE WEB. *TR

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
1) ON INTERSTATE I-495 LONG ISLAND EXPWY, CAR MOVING SLOW CAME FROM ON RAMP STRAIGHT ACROSS TO MIDDLE LANE. WENT TO ACCELERATE TO PASS IN LEFT LANE AND ENGINE STOPPED. PUTTED ON EMERGENCY FLASHERS AND WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO HOV SHOULDER AND RESTART ENGINE. 2) ON NORTHERN STATE PKWY (2 LANES ONLY) ON LONG ISLAND, NY AND WAS IN RIGHT LANE- SAW ONCOMING TRAFFIC MERGING AHEAD AND WENT TO GIVE GAS TO MOVE OVER TO LEFT LANE AND ENGINE STOPPED. AGAIN- MOVED TO SHOULDER, RESTARTED ENGINE. 3) WAS DOING 65 ON NJTPKE I-95N IN LEFT LANE BETWEEN CARS AND TRUCKS ON RIGHT. ENGINE STOPPED (NO ACCELERATION- JUST STRAIGHT DRIVING). I WAS BETWEEN VEHICLES AND NO PLACE TO PULL OVER- PUT CAR INTO N AND RESTARTED AND BACK TO DRIVE. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN- DID SAME THING. WHEN IT WAS CLEAR- PULLED OVER TO RIGHT SHOULDER- TURNED CAR OFF AND RESTARTED AND CONTINUED TRIP. ** COULD THIS BE PART OF THE RECENT RECALL ON CADDYS 2005-11 BUT DID NOT INCLUDE STS'S???? JUST FOR THE RECORD- HAVE NEW AIR FILTER AND SPRAYED BOTH THE MAF AND THROTTLE BODY VALVE WITH CORRECT CLEANERS- RECENTLY- AFTER SEEING A VIDEO ON CADDY COMPLAINT FORUM. *TR

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
THE CAR SIMPLY MADE A GRINDING SOUND AND I LOST ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I COULD NOT STEER, BRAKE OR ACCELERATE. THE GEARS WERE CORRODED AND AS A RESULT THE GEAR SHIFT HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR. THE CAR HAS 47,000 AND IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND I WAS TOLD THAT GM DID NOT PUT A SEALANT ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE AND AS A RESULT WATER AND ICE AND ALL OTHER WEATHER AFFECTED THE GEARS AND LITERALLY RUSTED OUT. I AM ALSO TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT WHEN THEY REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION, THEY WILL NOW PUT THAT SEALANT WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. TO ME THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. THEY KNOW THIS IS A PROBLEM AND ARE NOW GOING TO BE SURE A SEALANT IS PART OF THE FIX. I AM FORTUNATE THAT I WAS JUST GETTING BACK ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN THIS OCCURRED. IF I HAD BEEN DOING 75 MILES AN HOUR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC I TRULY BELIEVE I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE CAR JUST STOPPED IN ITS TRACKS AND I HAD NO CONTROL. FINALLY, I GOT THE CAR TO STOP GOING BACKWARDS WHEN I PLACED ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD THAT I AM THE THIRD LOW MILEAGE CAR THAT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED WITH THIS DEFECT. ANYONE LIVING IN WET AND SNOWY CLIMATES IS AT SERIOUS RISK. AN INVESTIGATION OF THE AWD GM VEHICLES IS WARRANTED. MEANWHILE, I HAVE A 5 YEAR 100,000 MILE WARRANTY THAT EXPIRED IN MARCH AND SO GM DOES NOT BELIEVE THEY SHOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM ON THEIR NICKEL. I BELIEVE THERE ARE GOING TO BE SOME SERIOUS ACCIDENTS SOON AND WANT THEM TO RECALL THE CARS TO HAVE THE SEALANT PLACED ON THEIR VEHICLES AND TO CHECK FOR CORROSION. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP. I STARTED GOING UP THE DRIVEWAY, I FELT THE CAR LURCH FOREWARD. I THOUGHT I WAS SLAMMING ON THE BRAKE, BUT HIT THE GAS INSTEAD. THE CAR CRASHED INTO THE HOUSE MOVING THE CONCRETE BLOCK. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I BROKE MY NECK AT C4 AND C5. I HAVE SEEN 3 REPORTS ON THIS SITE DETAILING THE SAME. ALL THESE CARS WERE 2007 CADILLAC STS. WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS WITH GM AND AIRBAGS, COULD THIS BE RELATED? *TR

AIR BAGS
THE "SERVICE AIRBAG" LIGHT CAME ON AND THE MESSAGE ON THE REARVIEW MIRROR IS NO LONGER DETECTING A PASSENGER WHEN A PASSENGER IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. THE PASSENGER DETECTOR SENSOR HAS FAILED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE SAME MODEL YEAR FOR THE CADILLAC CTS HAD A RECALL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE TWO VEHICLES ARE SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR AND PROBABLY USE THE EXACT SAME PART, YET THE THE STS MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON FORUMS WITH THIS ISSUE IN THE STS MODEL AS WELL AS THE CTS MODEL. THE RESULT WOULD BE THAT THE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. *TR

SEAT BELTS
ALL THREE BACKSEAT SEAT BELT RETRACTORS QUIT WORKING (RETRACTOR WOULD NOT ALLOW THE BELT TO EXTEND PREVENTING PASSENGERS FROM BUCKLING IN) AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. CADILLAC INFORMED ME THAT THEY DO NOT WARRANTY SEAT BELTS BEYOND 50,000 MILES AND THAT I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS (THREE NEW SEAT BELT RETRACTORS) MYSELF. *TR

STEERING
DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING VEHICLE. ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS (THANKFULLY BOTH AT SLOW SPEEDS) STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND COULD NOT BE TURNED (LOCKED UP HEADING LEFT). SHE WAS ABLE TO GUIDE VEHICLE TO STOP WITHOUT INJURY. SHE TURNED OFF VEHICLE AND RESTARTED AND STEERING RETURNED TO NORMAL. ONLINE RESEARCH INDICATES ALL CADILLAC MODELS OF THIS VINTAGE AND SOME NEWER ARE EXPERIENCING THIS STEERING PROBLEM. HOWEVER, NO RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETINS ISSUED. THIS IS THE LAST GM PRODUCT WE WILL EVER PURCHASE. *TR

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
DRIVING ON I-75 FROM ORLANDO ON A CLEAR SUNNY AFTERNOON WHEN I HEAR THE SUNROOF START TO RATTLE. I BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN WHEN I HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE SUNROOF. I PULL THE INSIDE COVER BACK ONLY TO FIND A HOLE IN THE ROOF OF THE CAR WHERE THE SUNROOF USED TO BE. WE CALLED THE LOCAL CADILLAC DEALERSHIP THAT FOLLOWING TUESDAY. WE WERE TOLD TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE COLLISION CENTER THAT SATURDAY ONLY TO FIND THE COLLISION CENTER WAS TECHNICALLY CLOSED BUT THERE WAS A PERSON IN THERE WORKING WHO CAME OUT TO THE CAR AND TOOK PICTURES. THEN WE WERE TOLD TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ONLY TO FIND OUT FROM THEM THAT ONLY THE MANAGER FROM THE COLLISION CENTER COULD APPROVE REPAIR OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR REPAIR. WELL, AFTER GETTING NO HELP FROM THE COLLISION CENTER OR THE DEALERSHIP WE CONTACTED THE CORPORATE OFFICE FOR ASSISTANCE/DIRECTION. THEY INITIALLY SEEMED HELPFUL BY CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP ON MY BEHALF AND HAVING THE TO MANAGER TO CONTACT US. TODAY IS MAY 20TH AND THE MANAGER HAS NOT CONTACTED US YET. WE STOPPED BY THE DEALERSHIP TODAY (AFTER CALLING FIRST TO NO AVAIL) ONLY TO FIND THE MANAGER WILL BE OUT OF THE OFFICE FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS AND SOMEONE ELSE WILL BE CONTACTING US. THIS HAS BEEN A VERY FRUSTRATING ORDEAL! THEY (THE DEALERSHIP/COLLISION CENTER) DON'T HAVE A REASON AS TO WHY THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED AND ARE AVOIDING US INSTEAD OF PROVIDING THE CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY SHOULD. *TR
