“The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac XTS. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the rear suspension was bouncing, and the vehicle became difficult to maneuver. The message to "Check Leveling System" was displayed on the instrument panel. The contact researched and became aware of a recall; however, the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was taken to the residence and the vehicle was self-diagnosed and it was determined that the stabilizer bar had detached. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report a failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200,000.”

“I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE OCTOBER 20TH 2017 AND WITHIN 2 WEEKS THE SERVICE DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO DEALER WAS TOLD WAS OLD CODE AND ERASED A FEW DAYS LATER SAME MESSAGE CAME ON WAS TOLD DASH WAS CLEARED AND GM CASE FILED. A FEW DAYS LATER LIGHT CAME ON FOR 3RD TIME. DEALER TOYED US AROUND ABOUT FIXING IT BUT FINALLY SUPPOSEDLY DID WITH NEW SENSORS IN SEAT. SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN HAVING MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH MY ABS SYSTEM AND KEY FOB. KEY FOB BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE AND ABS LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD ABS SENSOR WAS SUPPOSEDLY BROKE AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRENTEE AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE ISSUE FOR ME. I AM VERY AFFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IT SITS PARKED IN MY YARD AND I PAID OVER 20K FOR IT. I FEEL I HAVE BEEN TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BECAUSE I HAVE A DISABILITY WITH MY SPEECH. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION ABOUT KEY FOB AND ABS I CAN SEND IF NEEDED. THE CAR WAS DRIVING WHEN THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON WENT OFF AND TRACTION CONTROL CAME ON THEN OFF THEN BACK ON. THE KEY FOB WOULDNT WORK WHEN TRYING TO TURN CAR OFF BECAUSE IT HAS PUSH BUTTON THE FOB CONTROLLS STARTING IT AND TURNING IT OFF.”

“The car shut off while I was driving mid speed. This has happened multiple times luckily I wasnt on the highway. But this has happened many times so glad no other cars hit me, or I didnt crash with my kids in the car. This is so scary and I need Cadillac to look into this issue.”

“ALL 4 OF THE WHEELS SEEM TO BE LEAKING AROUND SOME OF THE SPOKES AND IT LOOKS LIKE GLUE. I AM WONDERING IF IT IS SAFE TO LET THAT GO ON, BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE SOME OF THEM ARE GLUED IN. I WILL ENCLOSE A PICTURE THANKS [XXX] ' *PM”
