2014 Cadillac Ats

MY CADILLAC QUE SYSTEM IS COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE AND DELAMINATED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2014 CADILLAC ATS. THE SCREEN ON THE QUE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY FROZEN AND DELAMINATED FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW AND I AM UNABLE TO USE ANY FEATURES WITH MY QUEUE. THIS HAPPENS IF THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR AT A STOP THE QUEUE IS JUST GONE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWED A 2014 CADILLAC ATS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING 55 MPH AND HE WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM THE HOOD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS WERE ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE SAFELY BEFORE THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOTAL LOT AS IT WAS DESTROYED BY THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURE WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 68,500.

THE CUE SYSTEM BECAME UNRESPONSIVE ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO AND WILL RANDOMLY CHANGE MY RADIO STATIONS. TODAY THE FILM UNDER THE TOUCHSCREEN LOOKS CRACKED LIKE IT IS SPIDER WEBBING. THIS IS THE SECOND CUE SYSTEM IN MY CAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. THE FIRST ONE FAILED AFTER 2 YEARS AND WAS COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. THIS SECOND ONE STOPPED WORKING AFTER TWO YEARS AS WELL. IT IS SAD THAT THEY PUT A PRODUCT IN A $56,000 CAR THAT CANNOT LAST LONGER THAN 2 YEARS. *TR

54,189 MILES ON CAR CURRENTLY. SINCE JUNE OF 2019 MY CAR/ENGINE WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AT A RED LIGHT, OR A COMING TO A STOP SIGN (BASICALLY COMPLETELY STOPPED OR COMING TO A STOP). ITS EVEN SHUT OFF WHILE IN REVERSE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE GEAR IS STILL IN DRIVE. SO I THEN HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK,PRESS THE BRAKE AND START IT AGAIN. IT SPUTTERS TO START AGAIN, BUT IT STARTS. ITS GETTING MORE FREQUENT, WITH IT STOPPING UP TO 3 TIMES AT ONE STOP LIGHT, AND THEN HAVING TO RESTART IT AGAIN. THERE ARE NO CODES ON THE DASH. IVE BROUGHT MY CAR INTO CREST CADILLAC MULTIPLE TIMES TO TRY AND DIAGNOSE THIS ISSUE. THEY CANNOT FIND THE ROOT CAUSE, AND IT STILL HAPPENING MOST RECENTLY TODAY! THERE IS A NEW BATTERY, ALTERNATOR TESTING IN GOOD CONDITION. THEY HAVE TESTED THE BATTERY CABLES/LINES. THIS IS INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING. MY CAR HAS STOPPED ON ME WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND TURN INTO A LANE AND I WAS ALMOST HIT BC MY ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I ALSO CALLED GM AND WAS TOLD WITHOUT A DIAGNOSIS THEY CANT HELP. IVE SPENT SO MUCH MONEY ON DIAGNOSTIC TESTS WITH NO ANSWERS. I NEED HELP PLEASE

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY APPROXIMATELY 70MPH. VEHICLE SUDDENLY BUCKED TWICE, A FEW SECONDS LATER A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED AND REDUCED POWER APPEARED IN THE MESSAGE CENTER. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SLOW ITS SPEED. I HAD THREE MILES UNTIL NEXT OFF RAMP. VEHICLE CONTINUED TO SLOW AS I GOT IT OFF HE HIGHWAY. ONCE OFF THE HIGHWAY I PULLED OVER AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. I NOTICED FUEL GAUGE WAS READING EMPTY, BEFORE PROBLEM WAS APPROX. 1/4 TANK. VEHICLE KNOW HAD A HEAVY FUEL SMELL. I HAD VEHICLE TOWED HOME. THE FOLLOWING DAY I INVESTIGATED THE PROBLEM. ( I AM A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC WITH OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. ) THE FUEL GAUGE READ EMPTY AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. I ADDED APPROX. 1 GALLON OF FUEL AND TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE. GASOLINE IMMEDIATELY POURED FROM A FUEL LINE AT THE REAR OF THE ENGINE. I REMOVED THE ENGINE COVER AND NOTICED THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WAS LOOSE FROM THE ENGINE. I CHECKED THE SUPPLY FUEL LINE AND IT WAS VERY LOOSE OR BROKEN. REALIZING DAMAGE WAS COMPREHENSIVE AND SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY I TOWED CAR TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THE DEALERSHIP WAS VERY UNCOOPERATIVE AND CHARGED ME FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF A BROKEN FUEL LINE. I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO INVESTIGATE WHY THE PUMP CAME LOOSE FROM THE CYLINDER HEAD. THEY SAID IT JUST HAPPENS AND IT WAS RETORQUED TO FACTORY SPECS. THAT VEHICLE WAS NOT TEST DRIVEN AFTER REPAIRS WERE MADE, I WAS TOLD IT WAS BUT IT HAD NO GAS REGISTERING ON THE GAUGE AND THE MILEAGE HAD NOT CHANGED FROM TIME OF DROP OFF. I PICKED UP VEHICLE FROM DEALERSHIP, PUT A HALF A TANK OF FUEL IN VEHICLE AT THE CLOSEST FUEL STATION AND DROVE IT HOME CAUTIOUSLY. I WILL NOT BE DRIVING VEHICLE AGAIN UNTIL I GET MORE ANSWERS. I BELIEVE A SERIOUS FIRE IS POSSIBLE IF THE FUEL LINE BREAKS AGAIN VERY LUCKY IT DID NOT HAPPEN THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE OF THE FUEL PUMP COMING LOOSE FROM THE ENGINE.
