2004 Cadillac SRX problems

“The contact owns a 2004 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH, the vehicle stalled, and the power steering and power brakes were inoperative. No warning lights were illuminated. The failure had occurred on several occasions. The contact researched and became aware of an unknown recall related to the failure; however, the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was taken back to the residence, and a dealer was contacted. The contact was informed that the electronic stability control module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.”

“Ran out of gas after putting gas in the car tried to start it and the ignition got stuck and continued to try to start on its own I had to pull the back to the off position I tried to start it again and it would not start and the lights on the dash And the radio control center did not come on. And car will not even try to start before this the car had been cutting off while driving down the road for no reason and it kept showing a check stability control warning and low tire pressure even though tires were not low at all”

“ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I BOUGHT MY 2004 CADILLAC SRX, IT STARTED JERKING AND MAKING A LOUD CLICKING OR POPPING SOUND, LATER FOUND OUT THAT A FEW SPROCKETS INSIDE THE TRANSFER CASE HAD BROKE OFF AND THE CHAIN? WAS SLIPPING. THIS WAS THE REAR, THE CARLOTS MECHANIC FIXED IT, THEN THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AND THE THROTTLE BODY INTAKE HAD TO BE OPENED AND CLEANED BECAUSE IT WASNT OPENING LIKE IT IS DESIGNED TO DO, AND SO THE EXHAUST WAS GETTING TRAPPED IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. ONE SUMMER DAY IN TRAFFIC IT CUT OFF ALL POWER, WE ENDED UP GETTING IT STARTED AGAIN TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD, AND IT GOT US BACK HOME, THAT WAS A YEAR AGO AND IT HASNT RAN SINCE. ALSO IF YOU HAD TRACTION CONTROL TURNED ON, THE ABS WOULD APPLY THEMSELVES WHICH SOMETIMES FELT UNSAFE. ALWAYS GOT AN ERROR MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN SAYING TO SERVICE THE STABLITRAX SYSTEM OR TO REPAIR THE TRACTION CONTROL AND THE TIRE THINGS THAT TELL YOU HOW MUCH AIR IS IN EACH TIRE, WE HAD 1 THAT DIDNT REGISTER AT ALL. THE SUNROOF SHADE WAS SHUT WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND IN TRAFFIC IT SPRUNG OPEN FAST AND LOUD AND IT WAS A SCARY SITE WHEN YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN THE BACKSEAT AND YOUR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THIS…”

“THIS VEHICLE NEEDS A RECALL IMMEDIATELY AS THE ISSUE CAN RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH TO THE DRIVER/ PASSENGERS/ OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AT ANY SPEED ON BOTH THE HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS, IT ABRUPTLY SHIFTS INTO ANOTHER LANE WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AND DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO PRESS ON THE BRAKES OR MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL FOR A FEW SECONDS TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. A "SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM" WARNING POPS UP ON THE SCREEN DIRECTLY AFTERWARDS AND A LOUD WARNING SOUND CONSTANTLY RINGS THROUGH THE CAR UNTIL YOU STOP THE VEHICLE AND TURN IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES. DRIVING THE CAR AGAIN REPEATS THE SAME PROBLEM. RESEARCH OF THE ISSUE SHOWS THAT MANY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND UPON INSPECTION AT THE MECHANIC, MOST ARE NOT GIVEN A SOLUTION. SOME BLOGS SAY REPLACING THE "STEERING WHEEL SENSOR" HAS SOLVED THEIR PROBLEM HOWEVER I HAVE REPLACED THE SENSOR ALONG WITH THE ENTIRE STEERING POWER STEERING RACK, BRAKES, TIRES, AND SEVERAL OTHER PARTS AND IN A YEAR I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND THE COMPANY NEEDS TO RECALL AND INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT.”

“TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 SRX CADILLAC. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT INDICATED THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY THE THROTTLE BODY. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 88, 0000.”

“While sitting at a friend's house on a hill my brakes went completely out once I hit them they went to the floor and we eended up hitting a tree stump that saved us from going off a steep cliff to possibly hurting each and everyone of us in the car.”
