2017 Cadillac XTS Complaints

In 2019, GM released service bulletin 18-NA-358 that confirms the company's knowledge of of defective parts in transmissions. I have a 2017 Cadillac XTS experiencing these symptoms and GM should be responsible for parts failing due to metal shavings. This needs to be a recall. The transmissions are not getting gas, shuddering, and stalling when accelerating. This shuddering has almost caused me to be in many accidents. The vehicle owner should not be responsible for replacing expensive parts and entire transmissions due to metal shavings stalling transmissions.

The contact owns a 2017 Cadillac XTS. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The contact stated that the accelerator pedal became stuck, and the vehicle accelerated excessively. The contact stated that the failure had occurred several times. The contact stated that the failure occurred once while the contact was driving in a shopping store parking lot and the vehicle crashed into five staged shopping carts. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The vehicle was inspected by an inspector sent by the manufacturer; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000. The VIN was unavailable.

Numerous problems for a year have been: engine dies while driving, car totally dead with new battery, display partially black randomly or totally black along with radio display black, park assist is turned off. Headlights turn off and on by themselves; The latest is driving up a hill @ 25 mph, the steering wheel jerked hard to the right at 2 different times. Had I not had a solid grip on the wheel, it would have taken down a 500 foot drop and we wouldn't be here today. This last episode is the first time their OBD was able to read anything. It read "no communication to steering, no communication to brakes, radio, dash display" and other no communications. This car is unsafe to drive and should be recalled or taken off the road. It has been to 2 dealerships and so far have not identified anything that gives me faith in the reliability in the vehicle.

Rear suspension not holding air. Rear suspension went flat while driving in highway. Had to pull over due to sudden rough ride

THE MAJOR COMPONENT OF THIS CAR IS THE CUE SCREEN. THE CUE SCREEN IS CONNECTED TO THE ABILITY TO DEFROST AND COOLING/HEATING SYSTEM IN THE VEHICLE. CURRENTLY, THE CUE SCREEN IS FROZEN AND THE OPERATIONS OF VARIES SYSTEMS ARE AT A HALT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUES. CURRENTLY DUE TO LEATHER SEATS UNABLE TO COOL IN EXTREME HEAT AND HAVE HAD SOME MINOR BURNS ALSO, THE COOLING SYSYEM IS NOT WORKING DUE TO THE FREEZING OF THE CUE SCREEN, THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS MATTER SINCE 2013. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE FOR SAFETY.
