“My Cadillac will go into drive and reverse but when I'm driving down the road it won't shift the rpms stay real high it wont shift rather should I say in my Cadillac”

NHTSA complaint #11364070, filed 2020-10, 153,000 miles

“My wife has complained several times over the last year about sudden acceleration by her car. I did not pay much attention until she hit a car in a parking lot because her car jumped forward. No one was in the other car and my wife was not hurt. It happened again about a week ago so I took it to the dealer. They made some software adjustments suggested by general motors including one that read addressing long hesitation/delays occurring when driver coasts to around 10mph and steps into an aggressive pedal .”

NHTSA complaint #10428152, filed 2011-10, 4,000 miles

“The sun roof drain tubes came away from the firewall on all 4 sides. Water leaked all over the gas pedal and the break. I have slid off the street trying to break causing damage to a yard. The electrical on the radio system and lights short out because of water getting into the dash. The back hatch has water leaking directly into the circuit board that controls it and not will not allow the hatch to open.”

NHTSA complaint #11075499, filed 2018-02, 90,000 miles

“The car makes a knocking noise from the engine and in order to drive, you have to hold in the traction control button. I was told that the connecting rod broke and has to be repaired & I believe that should be a recall with the engine.”
