VISIBILITY/WIPER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I HAVE NOTICED EXCESSIVE WATER DROPLETS IN HEADLIGHTS IT'S SO BAD VISIBILITY IS A SAFETY CONCERN AT NIGHT BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE HEADLIGHTS DON'T EVEN LOOK LIKE THERE ON. I HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAMS WHICH PUTS OTHERS LIVES IN DANGER DUE TO BEING BLINDED BY THE BRIGHT LIGHTS THAT CAN LEAD INTO MORE CRASHES.

LOW BEAMS ARE UNUSABLE. HAVE BEEN DIM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR USED, BUT ESPECIALLY APPARENT & DANGEROUS THREE NIGHTS AGO COMING HOME LATE AT NIGHT, RAINING, NO MOON. I COULD HARDLY SEE AND HAD TO KEEP HIGH BEAMS ON WHICH GOT A LOT OF LIGHT FLASHES FROM ONCOMING TRAFFIC. HAD TO SWITCH TO LOW BEAMS MORE THAN SAFETY WARRANTED. DRIVING WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND IF NOT FOR THE REFLECTORS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY I WOULD HAVE HAD TO STOP DRIVING.

THE INSIDES OF MY HEADLIGHTS COLLECT CONDENSATION. THE BULBS ARE VERY DIM EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH NEWER HIGH-INTENSITY BULBS. NIGHT DRIVING, ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS RAINING OR SNOWING IS HAZARDOUS.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
OUR 2015 CADILLAC SRX HAS EXTREMELY DIM LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. THEY ARE SO DIM THAT WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AT NIGHT. WHEN WE DO DRIVE AT NIGHT, WE DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT BE AFFECTED BY THE DEFECT YET. DRIVING WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON AT ALL TIMES IS HAZARDOUS TO OTHER DRIVERS, BUT THE LOW BEAMS ARE SO DIM, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, BUT TO DATE, GM REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE FLAW IN THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. ACCORDING TO THE LAWSUIT, THE SEALS GM USED IN THE EXTERIOR HEADLIGHT HOUSING UNITS WEAR OUT AND DETERIORATE AND ALLOW MOISTURE TO ACCUMULATE AND CONDENSE FROM THE AIR THAT FLOWS THROUGH THE VENTS. HOWEVER, THE VENTS FOR THE HOUSING UNITS ARE DEFECTIVE BECAUSE THEY INTERFERE WITH THE FLOW OF AIR THROUGH THE FAULTY SEALS OF THE HEADLIGHTS. THE CONDENSATION CAUSES HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS THAT INCLUDE FAILURE OF THE BULBS DUE TO CORROSION OF THE COMPONENTS SUCH AS THE IGNITERS, IN ADDITION TO ELECTRICAL SHORTS THAT OCCUR. SINCE 2011 AND IN AN EFFORT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS BEING TOO DIM OR FAILING COMPLETELY, GENERAL MOTORS ALLEGEDLY ISSUED A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM AND SEVERAL TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS (TSBS). BUT THE PLAINTIFFS CLAIM GM'S EFFORTS HAVEN'T FIXED THE DIM HEADLIGHTS.

POOR HEADLIGHT VISIBILITY DUE TO DIM LOW BEAMS AND MOISTURE BUILDUP INSIDE THE LENS. GM DOES NOT CONSIDER IT A SAFETY ISSUE AND THEREFORE HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY VERY DIM, I THOUGHT THEY WERE BURNED OUT. THE BRIGHTS ARE FINE. THE CARE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. WAS INFORMED BY DEALER THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT AND IT WOULD BE $1400 TO CORRECT THE ISSUE (REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEW BULBS WILL NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE).

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
WHEN I TURN ON THE CAR THE GAS GAUGE AND THE TEMP GAUGE DO NOT MOVE. THE SECURITY AND NO TRACTION WARNING LIGHTS STAY ON. WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR ON THE STREET STEERING IS SLUGGISH, THE TRANS RPMS ARE HIGH, SOMETIMES THE CAR GOES TO THE LEFT WHILE DRIVING. ON THE RADIO THERE IT READS ANTI THEFT SYSTEM HIT BUTTON TO CLEAR. WHEN I TURN OFF THE CAR THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF IGNITION AND I HAVE TO USE SCREWDRIVER TO PUSH A BUTTON IN STEERING COLUMN TO RELEASE IT. ONE WEEK EVERYTHING WORKED GREAT, NO WARNING LIGHTS, GAUGES WORKED, NO HIGH RPMS ON TRANS AND STEERING WAS FINE AND THE KEY CAME OUT OF THE IGNITION AND NOTHING ON RADIO ABOUT ANTI THEFT SYS. BUT EVERYTHING IS NOT WORKING AGAIN AND NOW ENGINE LIGHT IS ON.
