2017 Cadillac XTS Electrical system Problems

“The cue screen locks up and becomes inoperable several times a day. It causes the heat or A/C to not work properly and I am unable to use any function. The failure prevents me from properly heating or cooling the vehicle, use the nav function, and the screen will automatically reprogram my settings, make beeping noises, and become a significant distraction while driving. Safety related issue.”

“Problem #1 - trunk opens by itself (sometimes while vehicle is stationary & locked (I.e., parked for the night - engine off); other times the trunk opens by itself while I am driving/moving (engine obviously on); other times while the engine is on and the vehicle is stationary (I.e., vehicle is at idle). I know for a fact that these episodes occurred without me pressing the trunk button - whether it be the inside/door trunk button; key fob trunk vutton; or the trunk release on the trunk itself. …”

“Last year, we bought our car from a dealership used. We noticed the Cadillac cue was very glitchy. We took it into the dealership and they calibrated the system. We were on a trip using the GPS and it glitched several times. Had to pull over and set up our phones. Nothing works in the Cadillac cue when this happens. Climate control, GPS, apps, wifi, and music. Took it back, told it was no longer under warranty and GM was aware of all the issues yet refuse to do a recall. Dealership said eventually it would shatter. Well, yesterday, we got in our car and noticed it had in fact shattered. …”

“Purchased my 2017xt5 9/13/2017. While driving down a main street, I stopped for a light. When the light turned green, the car would not move. Could not turn it off nor could I try to put it in another gear. A kind gentleman, who was behind me, got out of his car and asked if I was okay. I told him the car would not move. He tried. No luck.. I got behind the wheel again and tried to shut it off, again. Eventually, it shut off. I pressed the started again and it rebooted. Very scary... Prayed that I would make it home. Next at, called the dealer. …”

“The Cadillac cue screen freezes while I am driving the car (vehicle in motion - or could be stopped at red light, but engine is on). This has happened dozens of times during the past 1 year that I have owned the car. I am suddenly unable to increase/decrease volume, change radio station, cannot use GPS, cannot adjust anything on the cue screen -- it is completely frozen. The only way to get it working again - pull off to side of road. Shut engine off; get out of car; lock the car doors; re-enter the car; start the vehicle engine - usually the cue screen is once again responsive at this point. …”
