“Takara recall the Cadillac 2013 SRX luxury latch gate will not unlock when I had a flat tire to get the spare tire out the back. Also when it did open it slammed on top of my back and would not stop closing.”

NHTSA complaint #11234701, filed 2019-07, 72,000 miles

“Shift to park error-car not registering when in park. System display says shift to park after moving shift control to the park position. Will not allow me to safely shut down/turn off vehicle. Has happened a couple of times now while stationary in parking lot and in my garage. I am not sure if car is actually in park or not and am afraid vehicle will roll. Has happened a few times, the first few times I could jigge the shift control and it would clear the error. Now I have to reboot my system to shut the car down.”

“I bought my vehicle 6 months ago. I never owned a Cadillac and I really love it but there isn't alot of leg room in the back seat and its hard to see the turn signal lights being 6'4 the way the window is shaped I have to hunch to the side and look up. My main problem is the touch screen from the cue applications. It doesn't register my touch so I have to go through the steering wheel buttons to change anything. My vehicle only has 56,000 miles on it I don't think something like that should go out that fast. I have read other owners stating the same thing. …”

“Takata recall about 2 weeks ago, I notice while driving that I'm loosing the acceleration. The front gausr of RPM is not consistent. We can feel the engine is having trouble going forwrd evry time I punch in the gas pedal. My passanger and I can feel the acceleration bit chocking. So, I brought it some mechanics & they says possible time chain problem. They diagnose the car and here some of the code came out. P0011, p0014, p0016, p0018, p0021. At first, they thought of changing the camshaft sensors and crankshaft sensors maybe it would resolve the problem but it didn't. …”

“The Cadillac cue (information/navigation/air condition system) developed spider web type cracks inside the screen; this makes it hard to see or use control features. I went online and found hundreds of people are having the same issue. One person has only 19,000 miles and has the web like cracks. It was 90 when I got into my car and saw a few of these cracks (these cracks are smooth to touch on screen), but a week later it's gotten bigger. A source says it's a factory defect, and that the cracks are ther glue or adhesive has dissipated, and is detaching the screen from the actual component. …”
