Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I had a blow out on the ohio turnpike. It was at that time I first came to know Cadillac no longer provided spare tires as standard equipment. There is a pump included which is useless in the case of a blow out. The issue is how can Cadillac be allowed to sell cars with out spare tires. It is obviously a safety device that should be mandatory.”

NHTSA complaint #10598428, filed 2014-06, 37,500 miles

“3 of the 4 wheel bearing/hubs are bad. Need to replace three. Thought it was tires, but it is the wheel bearings. I have 114,000 miles on the vehicle and no power train warranty now. Has been like this for 50,000 miles and thought it was the tires I bought because it started right after new tires install.”

“2011 Cadillac SRX with 20,000 miles on it had the entire wheel hub come apart. Bolts fell out and the remaining bolts were all loosened. This problem ruined the caliper and brakes. I was lucky that I was not driving on the highway very often as I could have had a very serious crash.”

NHTSA complaint #10692526, filed 2015-03, 20,500 miles

“I pulled out of a parking spot and then suddenly my car jolted to a stop. I had heard a snapping noise and the car wouldn't move forward or backwards. I looked at my tire only to find it was bowed in towards my car instead of away from it since the wheel should have been turned away from the car. Upon further review the tire rod had snapped. If the tire rod could easily snap as I was simply pulling out of a parking spot then it could have easily snapped while on the highway which would have resulted in injuries to myself and my child.”

“This car has a failure in the orings around the headlights causing them to fill with water and make visibility low. There is also a failure in the backup camera it seems almost all owners have to replace it after only a few years. There is also a failure in the stability sensor from the wheel bearing having a faulty bearing causing you to lose power while driving and very dangerous, only have issued a service bulletin #pic5428g”
