SO MANY RUSTED FRAME COMPLAINTS SHOULD HAVE WARRANTED A RECALL. IN MY CASE A FRAME SHOULD NOT HAVE RUSTED BADLY IN LESS THAN A YEAR . MANY EVEN SHOW ON YOU -TUBE TRYING TO FIX RUSTED FRAMES BECAUSE NO ONE IS LISTENING. UNDERBODY COATING ACTUALLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDED . THIN SHEET METAL SECTIONS ARE THE WORST PARTS .

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ONCE AGAIN, AND THE ENGINE REDUCED POWER CAME UP ON THE SCREEN. THIS HAPPENED ONCE ON THE FREEWAY DRIVING 70 MILES PER, THE VEHICLE'S SPEED WENT DOWN ALL THE WAY TO 20 MILES PER HOUR, I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE IT LOST POWER THEN IT SHUT OFF. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT OR ANOTHER VEHICLE COULD HIT ME ACROSS THE FREEWAY. THIS ALSO HAPPENED NOVEMBER 3, 2017, AS I WAS ROLLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY THE VEHICLE CUT OFF IN MOTION. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE LOSING POWER WITHOUT NO NOTIFICATION TO THE DRIVER UNTIL IT HAPPENS. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED FOR THESE 2004 SRX CADILLAC VEHICLES. ALSO THE SCREENS CONSTANTLY SAYS CHECK STABILITY SYSTEM, OR REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND TRACTION CONTROL. PLEASE THIS HAS TO BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

CONSTANTLY, CONSTANT PROBLEMS. EVERY TIME I TURN AROUND THIS CAR IS STALLING, THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS COME ON , SLOWING ACCELERATION AND CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I SEE THE DIC MESSAGE BOARD BLINKING AND THE CAR ACTS AS THOUGH IT IS GOING TO STOP. THESE ISSUES LISTED ON THIS SITE FROM ALL THESE PEOPLE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED. I AM NOW WRITING TO CADILLAC BECAUSE THE ISSUES ARE GETTING OUT OF CONTROL AND I AM AFRAID FOR MY AND MY CHILD'S LIFE. I AM MOVING FORWARD TO SEEK OUT AN ATTORNEY FOR A LAWSUIT THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

RE: RECALL NUMBER 14V394. THE FIX GM IS DOING IS A SMALL PLASTIC PIECE BEING GLUED INTO THE KEY END. I'VE HAD MY KEY STICK IN THE IGNITION MORE THAN ONCE AND I WASN'T EVEN MOVING. I FOUND A PAGE IN MY MANUAL (SECTION 2 PAGE 21) THAT EXPLAINS WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THIS TELLS ME THAT THE PROBLEM CAUSING CRASHES IS MUCH MORE THAN A SMALL KEY FIX. THE IGNITION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I REPORTED THIS TO THE GM HOTLINE. THEY MADE A NOT OF THE FACT THAT IF ANYBODY GETS HURT IN MY CAR BECAUSE OF IGNITION ISSUES, THEY WILL HEAR FROM MY LAWYER. THEY JUST SAID "OK, WE'LL MAKE A NOTE OF IT". *TR

I PURCHASED A 2004 SRX FROM COLEMAN CADILLAC IN EWING, NJ ON 11/05/03. MY SRX WAS PARKED AT COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY WHEN THE IGNITION KEY GOT LOCKED IN THE IGNITION CYLINDER. THE REPAIR COST AT POTAMKIN CADILLAC CAME TO A TOTAL OF $2217.86. I ALSO HAD TO GET MY KEYS REPROGRAMMED WHICH TOTALED $181.35 BACK AT COLEMAN CADILLAC IN NJ. I RECENTLY READ THAT THE 2004 SRX IGNITION WAS IDENTIFIED AS A PROBLEM: THE DELPHI (DLPH.N) DOCUMENTS, RELEASED ON WEDNESDAY BY THE U.S. NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION, ALSO MAY INDICATE THAT EARLIER VERSIONS OF THE CADILLAC SRX, FROM MODEL YEARS 2004-2006, USED A SWITCH PART FROM THE 2003 ION. ONE DOCUMENT SAYS THE SRX "IN THE BEGINNING OF THE PROGRAM" USED SWITCH PARTS FROM "DELTA" VEHICLES, THE CODE NAME FOR THE GM SMALL-CAR FAMILY THAT INCLUDES THE ION AND COBALT. I'M SURE YOU ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND AM ASKING THAT I RECEIVE A CREDIT FOR THE EXPENSE I INCURRED FOR THE REPAIR OF THE IGNITION CYLINDER AND ATTENDANT COST'ECM, REPROGRAMMING, ETC. THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE CREDIT I AM ASKING IS $2399.21. I HAVE WRITTEN TO GM AND HAD NUMEROUS DISCUSSIONS WITH THEIR EXECUTIVE RESOURCE CENTER (REFERENCE NO. 71-1336933693402). AN INITIAL OFFER OF $200 WAS WITHDRAWN AFTER CALLING TO TELL ME THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL. THE ONLY RECALL NOTICE I HAVE RECEIVED WAS TELLING ME TO HAVE A PLUG PUT IN MY IGNITION KEY.
