Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“On two separate occasions my old 2000 GM Cadillac sts stalled while driving on the highway. This was not a mechanical problem - it was some sort of defect. Note that it was repaired in between the incidents, do it was not the same initial problem. I filed a complaint back then, but got no response. The mechanics at the palo alto Cadillac dealer seemed to know of the problem. At the time, they said it was a failure of some sensors on the flywheel. I don't know if this was related to the current ignition switch problem. Having a vehicle stall at 65 mile per hour is absolutely terrifying. …”
NHTSA complaint #10577793, filed 2014-04, 20,000 miles“Vehicle experienced condensation on the front and rear lights. Consumer took the vehicle to the dealer, they changed the bulbs. However, the reason for the condensation build up was not resolved. Two inches of water accumulated in the rear lights shorting out the electrical system. Front bulbs go out when it rains or when the vehicle sits out of the garage.”
NHTSA complaint #10097719, filed 2004-11, 20,000 miles“The vehicle stalled without warning. The dealer had not determined the cause. The vehicle stalled a few times before but would restart. The last occasion the vehicle did not restart. Per invoice, the voltage at the relay had no ground and was found loose. The part was removed, cleaned, tightened, and the vehicle was able to start.”
NHTSA complaint #10038615, filed 2003-10, 45,000 miles“When bright sunlight hits windshield digital console becomes unreadable. Driver states at night console is wonderful, very bright to read. Please describe details.”
