2023 Cadillac Lyriq Complaints

Vehicle is automatically braking at low speeds when there is no reason to do so. It is as if the vehicle thinks something is there but there is nothing there

While transitioning to day to night, the instrument panel dims prematurely making the content very hard to see. This includes all indicators such as speed, turn signals, and other gauges and possible fault indications. This happens prior to dusk, when there is still plenty of daylight remaining. The headlights come on (this is fine), but the display dims to full night mode at the same time also. Although the instrument display night illumination level is adjustable with the dimmer switch, even at maximum setting the instrument panel cannot be well seen. Once the sun fully sets, the display visibility for night viewing is fine. The same issue occurs at the night to day transition. The display stays dim much too long into dawn, again presenting visibility issue of the controls and gauges during this time. This problem is not isolated to just my particular vehicle. When the vehicle was in the shop for various repairs, loaner Lyriq's provided exhibit the same issue. Both 2023 and...

The Lyriq, as well as all current GM vehicles, use an icon on their instrument panel for indicating headlights are on that is incorrect. They use the symbol for parking lights rather than the symbol for low beam headlights on their instrument panel display. This is especially confusing because their own digital menu to turn on lights correctly shows the low beam headlights symbol for headlights, and the parking lights symbol for parking lights. However, turning on low beam headlights shows a parking lights indicator in the dashboard, and turning on the parking lights shows no indicator in the dashboard. It's my belief that, to help ensure no driver misunderstands what the symbols are indicating, that GM should have all vehicles properly use the low beam symbol for a dashboard indicator to show headlights, just like other vehicles use, rather than the parking lights indicator which is incorrect (both inconsistent with US convention, (as well as inconsistent with their own menu in the...

Driving on connecter road between 2 freeways at 35-40 mph because of traffic. Suddenly the car veers to left on its own and hits concrete lane guiding wall damaging the left front of the car. Next tried to brake and they didn't work. Unable to steer the car it heads to the right and up on the rocks decorating of the road. Car goes another 25 or more feet before stopping due to rocks slowing down the car. The air-bags never deployed. Tried to contact SOS button but didn't work. Next contacted ONSTAR but they were no help and didn't show that an accident occurred and said call 911 which was done. Ever since the purchase of this EV car have been having trouble with it. The Emergency light (red car on dashboard) lit up and went to dealer who kept the car over a week. Green car worked for a while but occasionally turned red. Went to dealer again. Also, one day the steering wheel would not work until tried several time to restart the car. Dealer managed to break the steering wheel...

The 2023 Lyriq has 3 selections on the touch screen menu for the level of regenerative braking. They are: 1. Off 2. Low 3. High (I did not go out to my car to see exact wording) The serious issue is that, without notice to the driver, the setting can be reset to "Off". This must be a programming error or bug, but what is dangerous is expecting regenerative braking and NOTHING happens. You are forced to reset the level of regenerative braking. At a random interval, the setting will again RESET. This should get IMMEDIATE attention at GM's Lyriq design center.
