Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“It was 5:30 pm on 7-29-16, my wife and I went to check on the house while our daughter & son-in-law were away. As always, I had slowed the car to a crawl in order to park behind my son-in-law's car parked on the street in front of their house. I got the front right wheel almost on top of the curb and let it roll down. When the wheel touched the street this time, we heard a loud sound (like gears shifting) and the car suddenly revved up and surged forward. I slammed on the brakes but could not avoid hitting the front car's rear fender. …”
NHTSA complaint #10907982, filed 2016-09, 16,000 miles“There has been 2 occasions my brand new car has stalled and lost power. Both times the car has sat for over an hour. When I get into vehicle it starts up and I take off. Within a minute the vehicle is stalling and fails to accelerate. Each time I have taken it into Cadillac and they can't find a problem because it did not register in the computer system nor does a test drive discover problem. The real concern is if I'm crossing an intersection and the vehicle stalls and I'm in an accident. I don't want to be a statistic waiting for GM to find this problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10593365, filed 2014-05, 5,445 miles“The car has a cracked cue screen from the inside which operates all the functions for defrosting, air-conditioning, and heating. The only way to use any of the air/heat is to have the auto button. The options on the steering wheel do not work at all. This has now become a very very severe safety issue when driving the vehicle and you need to have the front windshield clear. I also subscribe to siriusxm radio and you cannot use the radio at all from the cue system or the steering wheel to change the channels or volume. …”
