“System stability issues and it jerks my left rear out of wack when driving my 2004 SRX Cadillac I have small infants and I bought this car from dealership a few months ago and I beleive it is a GM recall according to other sites. I don't know what to do it scares me that I'm gonna lose control every time I drive it because its getting worse and I spent all the money I had saved so my wife could have her Cadillac.”

“My traction control/stability system will engage while I am driving down the road unless I manually disable it. This could very easily cause an accident because the car will be jerked and pulled either to the left or right. It began in january of 2009 and continues to do this even after trying many things to fix the problem.”

NHTSA complaint #10373645, filed 2010-12, 65,000 miles

“This car has a panoramic sun roof. The entire roof of the car is glass. As I was driving on the highway the entire sunroof (the glass panels, the tracks, the sunroof motors, the rack) completely flew off and the entire assembly almost hit another car behind it. . I guess the wind got under it and ripped the sunroof from the car. The sunroof was closed. Upon further inspection I come to find out that the panoramic roof is installed and secured with only glue. There are no bolts that secure the roof to the car. The glue must've been getting old and allowed the wind to tear the rest of it apart.”
