2024 Cadillac XT4 Back-over prevention (rear camera) Problems

“While backing up I had situations where the automatic brakes would engage although there was no obstruction behind the car. To stop this from happening, I had to turn this feature off. I brought the car in for service (Ed Morse Cadillac in Delray Beach, Florida) and was given a Cadillac Service Bulletin that acknowledged this was a problem with 2023-2025 cadillacs and there was no fix for this problem. They suggest that I do what I had done- turn it off. I feel this is not an adequate response. …”

“On four occasions now, the car slammed on the brakes as if the collision detection system was going off. Someone did almost hit me from behind as they needed to slam on their brakes due to my cars collision system going off when not supposed to. This has been well documented with Cadillac and the leased vehicle has been back in the shop 4 months out of the year we owned it. It is a major safety issue and am very concerned it will happen at a time that may cause a bad accident, injury or loss of life if something is not done. …”

“GM/Cadillac removed the Front Parking Assist and cameras from the 2024 XT4 Cadillac. We were unaware that the vehicle did no have this now basic feature and almost bumped into another vehicle. This feature was in all other years of this vehicle and GM decided to leave it out without notifying purchasers of this. Why would any major manufacturer make a vehicle less safe than pervious versions. GM needs to retrofit all models of the 2024 XT4 with Front Parking Assist to ensure a child or other object in front of the car does not get run over.”
