It has been inspected by dealership and confirmed the headlight assembly faulty because of damage to internal component. An independent service center diagnosed and confirmed as well.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Headlights are dim on low beam. After multiple reports/complaints by owners no recall was issued. It is a safety issue.GM offered to reimburse up to $1600. My dealer wanted $2502.40 plus tax to replace the lights. $1000 over the reimbursement cost which made a total of almost $3000 I had to put out then wait to get back $1600. I have not replaced the lights. This is a product safety issue that is GM's problem not mine. Why no recall?

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
BACK IN FEBRUARY OF 2020 I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND IT STARTED JERKING AROUND REALLY BAD WHEN I WOULD EITHER UPSHIFT OR DOWNSHIFT IN 1-2 GEAR. TOOK IT TO CADILLAC AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. WE TOOK IT TO A COUPLE OF OTHER MECHANICS AND A LOT OF MONEY LATER NO ONE COULD FIND ANYTHING. ONE DAY DRIVING HOME FROM WORK THE CAR STARTED JERKING SO BAD THAT I ALMOST CRASHED. COME TO FIND OUT THE TRANSMISSION DIED. WE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER HAVING PROBLEMS AGAIN. WHEN I DRIVE AND GET TO ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR THE ENTIRE CAR SHAFTS TO SHAKE AND JERK AROUND AND THIS HAPPENED WHEN I HAD MY KIDS IN THE CAR. GM IS DOING NOTHING TO HELP US. AT THIS POINT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND AND CAN'T AFFORD TO KEEP RANDOMLY REPLACING PARTS ON A CAR THAT IS JUST NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT THIS POINT. I AM TRULY AFRAID FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY.
