2006 Cadillac SRX Complaints

2006 Cadillac SRX turn signals burn out within months or replacement. I made 2 videos of me fixing it, put on YouTube with over 35, 000 views. That must mean there are lots of folks with this problem that don't know where to report it. While driving, the indicator flashes a bit faster than it should - the only clue it isn't working. You think other drivers know your intentions and they don't. This is dangerous. Mechanics have to pull the bumper, a bit of work, and want over $300 to change the bulb. Over and over again. This is the 5th time in 3 years. 2nd problem is the "Stability System" - well, I'm not driving on ice, have never needed such a thing. This one nearly cause me to crash into a curb or parked car as I was making a left hand turn in our residential neighborhood at what 15 mph? Suddenly the wheel locked, tires locked and sent me screeching dangerously close to that parked car. It does have a warning, "Service Stability System" but the dealer will want a lot for that, too....

POWER TRAIN AXLE IS NOT RIGHT REAR DIFFERENTIAL ETC WHEEELS AND RIM GET STUCK WHEN TURNNING EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT KEY RING LOCKS OR GET STUCK. SHOCKS AND STABITLTY LIGT COMES ON SAYING IT NEEDS FIXING AND TIRE SENSOR

WHEN I TURN ON THE CAR THE GAS GAUGE AND THE TEMP GAUGE DO NOT MOVE. THE SECURITY AND NO TRACTION WARNING LIGHTS STAY ON. WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR ON THE STREET STEERING IS SLUGGISH, THE TRANS RPMS ARE HIGH, SOMETIMES THE CAR GOES TO THE LEFT WHILE DRIVING. ON THE RADIO THERE IT READS ANTI THEFT SYSTEM HIT BUTTON TO CLEAR. WHEN I TURN OFF THE CAR THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF IGNITION AND I HAVE TO USE SCREWDRIVER TO PUSH A BUTTON IN STEERING COLUMN TO RELEASE IT. ONE WEEK EVERYTHING WORKED GREAT, NO WARNING LIGHTS, GAUGES WORKED, NO HIGH RPMS ON TRANS AND STEERING WAS FINE AND THE KEY CAME OUT OF THE IGNITION AND NOTHING ON RADIO ABOUT ANTI THEFT SYS. BUT EVERYTHING IS NOT WORKING AGAIN AND NOW ENGINE LIGHT IS ON.
