2014 Cadillac Srx Problems

I have a 2014 Cadillac SRX that has a hazardous headlights issue. At night there is no visibility for other drivers to see me. I’m not the only SRX customer either this issue. Please let me what is going on, Cadillac, GM, need to be responsible for replacing this issue

Low beam headlights extremely dim. Feels like driving with parking lights only. Very difficult to see. While checking different positions of the headlight switch discovered that in the parking light position ALL lights go off.

The contact owns a 2014 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the headlight wiring harness for the low beam headlights produced a burning odor. The contact believed that the burning odor was coming from loose terminal connections, which caused the terminals to overheat and melt. The headlights were inoperable. The dealer was notified of the failure, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 73,000.

I have been trying to enjoy this vehicle from the time it became part of my life. The first 6 months, I was unable to close the sunroof, because of that my passenger seat cracked since its been exposed to the sun for 5 years, the driver's side window could not roll down which we fixed; I never owned a vehicle where I could not access my trunk. The first 6 months of having this vehicle the lifgate became inoperable. the lift gate does not work. The sensors of the vehicle are useless, the car radioi does not work the cue sticks, which can be distracting and can cause an accident so I use the YouTube on my phone for entertainment. The sensors led to the transmission deteriorating to the point of the transmission fluid burning faster and deteriorating the components of the transmission. This is going to cost me 6000.00 These are known manufacture defects for the SRX 2014. Please help

Low beam lights are extremely dim pretty sure it’s caused by the projector screen infront on the bulbs not allowing enough light to come thru. Can not see the road infront of you or around the side or your car when needing to make a turn, extremely dangerous

Transmission is slipping/jerking when stopping and then when accelerating again. Multiple other owners have reported this same issue.

At lower speeds, especially after coasting, my car will lag for a few seconds before jerking forward. Also today I was coasting going about 25 mph and tried to accelerate and I pushed the pedal down and it wasn’t doing anything for several seconds then decided to start speeding up. No warning lights have come on. This has been happening for a bit but today was the first time I was concerned for my safety as I was out on a major highway

ABS module is bad, no ABS braking. Brake light on and ABS light on. Module is no longer produced or available. With this said, I am not going to be able to pass inspection in my state therefore leaving my perfectly good car to sit. As is, I am afraid to drive it due to this braking issue especially in rain.

ABS- TRACTION CONTROL- BRAKE- POWERSTEERING ALARM APPEARS STATING TO DRIVE WITH CAUTION- HAVE TAKEN THE VECHICLE IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY STATE THEY CAN NOT REPAIR THE ALARM- I ASKED IF THIS WOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A RECALL ISSUE DUE TO SAFTEY ISSUE. AS THE CAR STATES IT IS NOT SAFE TO BE DRIVEN- AS I SEE THIS A AN IMMINATE SAFTEY HAZARD AS THE POWER STEERING DOES NOT WORK AND ABS BRAKE DOES NOT WORK AND TRACTION CONTROL DOES NOT WORK.

Today is Saturday, November 11, 2023. While driving my check, engine light came on, and I was given a message on the dash that engine power was reduced. I was only able to drive the car 30 to 45 miles an hour to get home. I have not taken the car to the mechanic yet, but will do so when they open on Monday. I was in a heavily congested area with many cars passing me at great speeds. I connected a code reader to my automobile, and came up with the code P2138. After doing research, it is my understanding that General Motors knows of this problem and has not addressed it at this time. For that reason, I feel I should be reimbursed for mechanic parts and services to repair this problem.

The car needs an EBCM or EBTCM depending on which. dealer I'm talking to. The stability control service and power steering are turned off and the anti-lock brakes are disabled. I have been to two dealerships and the part is on nationwide backorder and is not being manufactured. One dealer has 15 clients waiting for the part the other 14 they are not taking new orders. I was told my best bet was to trade the car in. The car is unsafe to drive. I think all 2010 to 2016 SRX's should be taken off the road, they are a danger to themselves and others.

I started my car using the remote start. When I opened my car the driver side seat was smoking and a hole had been burned in the back. The inside of the hole was red and appeared to be light up like a hot coil. I turned my car off and tapped/blew on the area to put out the little fire.

1. Since owning the 2014 SRX the headlights are so dim to the point of not being able to use the vehicle at night or storms for fear of a crash. Now the Driver side HID Has failed along with the headlights housing to be cloudy on the inside. 2.Rear Door Hatch malfunction. Will not open or close with door switch , key fob or button on rear hatch door. I can open manually and close manually however this is a HUGE inconvenience as the rear door is so heavy. I’ve been told by the service department that it’s a design flaw from Cadillac Sunroof drain?

The rear hatch door of my SRX has been not functioning properly. It opens and closes with erratic function. Regularly I've hit the button to open it and it has begun to close on me with shear force trying to crush my body while loading groceries. It has hit me in the head and the back causing pain. This is very dangerous because it isn't falling suddenly its closing with force. If I try to push it back up it pushes against my weight. I want to sell my car but I'm worried it will hurt someone.

There was a recall on the toe links, but the dealer did not follow procedures. The toe link was replaced during a recall, but the mechanic never aligned the wheels. This should be standard process and should come free after the recall takes place. They never get back to me after a service request.
