2012 Cadillac Srx

THE LIFT GATE FELL DOWN ON ME WHILE GETTING PACKAGES OUT OF THE REAR IN MY DRIVEWAY. IT WAS TERRIFYING! ONCE AGAIN, THE LIFT GATE FELL DOWN ON MY DAUGHTER A FEW WEEKS LATER AT CVS PARKING LOT, TRAUMATIZING HER! SHE HAD HER BABY. I REPORTED TO TONIA GENERAL MOTORS PRODUCT ASSISTANCE CLAIMS; CONCENTRIX ON BEHALF OF GENERAL MOTORS PHONE: 866-446-6963 X 5921511; THEY INVESTIGATED, AND "DETERMINED NO WARRANTY DEFECT". HOW MANY SACRIFICIAL LAMBS BEFORE A RECALL? IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT - WATER DRAINS INTO 2 COMPARTMENTS FROM SUNROOF INTO DRAINING COMPARTMENTS IN THE REAR OF CAR AT LIFT GATE, TRAPPING MOISTURE WHICH BURNS OUT AND CORRODES LIFT GATE AND BLUETOOTH MODULES. MY SUNROOF STILL WORKS, BUT NOT THE LIFT GATE OF BLUETOOTH. NOTHING IN MAINTENANCE MANUAL OTHER THAN IN "FEATURES" TO CLEAN SUNROOF. OR IT MAY NOT WORK. NOTHING FOR MAINTENANCE OF BLUETOOTH PROBLEMS OR LIFT GATE SAFETY ISSUES!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE HEADLAMPS WERE VERY DIM AND FOGGY. THE CONTACT NOTICED WATER ENTERING THE HEADLAMPS AND WAS UNABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE CONTACT CALLED KERRY TOYOTA IN FLORENCE, KY AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESPOND. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,390.

LOW BEAM LIGHTING IS VERY VERY POOR, LIKE NOT HAVING ANY LIGHTING AT ALL. VERY DANGEROUS ! HAVE CHANGED BULBS BUT NO LUCK. DEALER TESTED AND ADVISED THEY ARE NORMAL, NO WAY. WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM DRIVE IT AT NIGHT. I LIKE THE VEHICLE BUT FEEL I'M FORCED TO TRADE-IN, JUST TO DANGEROUS BECAUSE I OFTEN HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. NEW VEHICLE WILL NOT BE A CADILLAC !

PURCHASED 2012 CADILLAC SRX ON SEPTEMBER 26TH 2017. CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT BECAUSE OF EXTREMELY DIM HEADLIGHTS. SEWELL VILLAGE CADILLAC IN DALLAS TX, SALES AND FINANCE MANAGERS ADMIT THAT THEY HAVE HEARD SEVERAL COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE DIM LIGHTS AND SAFETY CONCERNS. I AM REQUESTING THAT THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS INVESTIGATED BECAUSE THE DEALER WANTS THE VEHICLE OWNER TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHTS, STATING THAT REFLECTIVE FINISH INSIDE THE HOUSING DOES FADE AND STOP PROJECTING THE LIGHT AS ORIGINALLY DESIGNED. WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT I CAN BARELY SEE MAYBE 30 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN PASSING ONCOMING LIGHTS FROM VEHICLES 1 OR 2 LANES OVER, MY LIGHTS ARE WASHED OUT AS PITCH DARK(BLINDED). I FEEL VERY UNSAFE BUT THE CAR DEALERSHIP HAS NOT AGREED TO MAKE THIS PURCHASE A SAFE RELIABLE VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THIS REALLY A MANUFACTURER MATERIAL DEFECT. YOU CAN REACH ME AT [XXX] IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

OPENED REAR GATE HATCH AND REACHED INTO VEHICLE. REAR GATE ABRUPTLY STARTED CLOSING ON ITS OWN PINNING ME IN THE VEHICLE. HATCH WAS PRESSED AGAINST MY UPPER BACK AND UPPER RIGHT ARM AS I WAS TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. HATCH WOULD NOT STOP CLOSING AND CONTINUALLY KEPT BANGING MY BODY UNTIL I COULD SLITHER OUT FROM UNDERNEATH IT AND THEN IT FORCEFULLY SLAMMED SHUT. I AM A SENIOR FEMALE AND WAS PINNED FACED DOWN "VERY SCARY". I CALLED LOCAL CADILLAC DEALER AND BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN WITHIN A HALF HOUR. THEY TOOK IT IN IMMEDIATELY, NO QUESTIONS ASKED AND REPLACED THE RIGHT STRUT. I INQUIRED IF THERE SHOULD BE ANY TYPE OF SAFETY FEATURES OR SENSORS TO PREVENT FROM HATCH CLOSING ON YOU AND THEY STATED NO. NEXT DAY LATER I AM VERY BRUISED AND SORE.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED. PRESSED BUTTON TO HAVE REAR POWER LIFT GATE OPEN. AS IT WAS FULLY OPENING, I PUT ONE OF MY GROCERY BAGS IN THE REAR HATCH THE LIFT GATE POWERED DOWN ONTO MY HEAD WITHOUT WARNING. IT KNOCKED ME TO THE PARKING LOT. WITHOUT ANY DIRECTION FROM ME IT WENT PARTIALLY UP AND DOWN AGAIN AND THEN CLOSED FULLY. I GOT UP AND TRIED THE BUTTON AGAIN TO OPEN THE LIFT GATE. IT OPENED AND THEN JERKED DOWN AND THEN UP AND THEN CLOSED. IT STILL MALFUNCTIONS THIS WAY AND WON'T OPEN AND STAY OPENED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE REVERSING AT 3 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE BACKUP CAMERA DISPLAY FAILED AND THE TAIL LIGHTS FLICKERED AND BLINKED INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS OR CAMPAIGNS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
