2010 Cadillac Cts

All of a sudden when I started my car, the lights flickered constantly, the power steering failed, and it blew my starter and fairly new battery. I was so scared; I thought it was going to catch on fire because it smelled burnt. And I was on [XXX] in Hubbard Ohio, and I was trying to get to [XXX] and safety to which I did. THANK Goodness for AAA. I was told this happened because of a plug in wiring to heat or warm the washer fluid. It is available for inspection. My safety was impacted because, I had no power steering, flickering lights and smell of burnt stuff. My problem was fixed by an independent shop. My vehicle was not inspected by a GM dealer or my insurance. Was inspected by an independent shop that it was towed to. Warnings prior to incident: I would turn the ignition and nothing. But that would only happen several weeks apart. I thought maybe the starter was going, but it was odd because it was so many weeks far apart that it would happen. It might have been a total of 4 times since October of 2024. During the incident, power steering warning came on, charging system came on and the car sounded like it was barely running.

I took my car 1200 Moss St., bingo alignment, and two weeks after my alignment my steering wheel shipped and I bought it over to the shop and told them that they did not talk to the school down on my control arms and the lady told me to get off of her premises and get out and I think that’s not right she did not on her warranty and I called the police to get an incident report and she just was belligerent and pull guns on me and do all kind of crazy stuff. I would like to have someone investigate her please

A black bolt in my steering column fell out onto my floormat and a second bolt was very loose, getting ready to fall out. The steering column just needs to be adjusted - recalibrated. No parts needed, very little time. Foundation Cadillac, Denver Colorado is charging me for diagnostics for bolts. Having my steering column fall would have been a huge safety issue. I need some help getting Foundation to adjust the steering column at no cost to me. My Cadillac is Out of Warranty.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC CTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BEING DEPRESSED. IN ADDITION, WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. . THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

ON 6 JUNE, 2013 WHILE DRIVING ON M59 IN MICHIGAN AND APPLYING THE BRAKES, MY KNEE MADE CONTACT WITH THE REMOTE FOB, CAUSING THE IGNITION KEY TO MOVE FROM THE "ON" POSITION TO "ACCESSORY" MODE. THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING AND I HAD TO STEER AND BRAKE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT POWER ASSIST TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE SAME SITUATION OCCURRED IN JANUARY 2014 WHILE DRIVING ON I-75 TO FLORIDA. IN BOTH CASES I INFORMED MY DEALER (LAFONTAINE CADILLAC IN HIGHLAND, MICHIGAN). THE RESPONSE WAS THAT THEY HAD NOT RECEIVED ANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND THEY COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. I INFORMED GM OF THE ISSUE AND THEY ARRANGED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE EXAMINED TODAY, 1 APRIL, 2014. I JUST RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DEALERSHIP INFORMING ME THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH MET SPECIFICATIONS. WHETHER OR NOT IT DID (AND TO WHICH SPECIFICATION) IS ACADEMIC. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! WHILE I WAS ABLE TO MANHANDLE THE STEERING AND BRAKING, I DOUBT THAT MY WIFE WOULD BE ABLE TO. *TR
