2010 Cadillac Srx

I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TWO DAYS AGO AND NOW REALIZED IT LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING (IN-MOTION) AND THEN JUMPS AS IF IT WANTS TO CUT OFF. AT THE TIME, I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE, THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE A CRASH OR CAUSE OTHER CARS TO REAR-END IT. ALSO, IT SAYS AIRBAG NEEDS SERVICING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE ENGINE DECELERATED AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTARTED AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND STABILITRAK INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED CREST CADILLAC (2367 S TAMIAMI TRAIL, VENICE, FL 34293, (941) 584-8540), BUT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THEY PROVIDED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000. *JB

THE VEHICLE SWITCHES TO STABILITRAC AND ABS AT THE SAME TIME CAUSING THE ENGINE TO NOT SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR. THIS CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO BE OVER RAM AND I HAVE TO STOP THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY AND PUT IT INTO SPORT MODE AND MANUALLY SHIFT THE GEARS IN ORDER FOR IT TO SHIFT GEARS. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AT THE TIME OF TRANSMISSION NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY INTO THE NEXT RPM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, IT HESITATED TO RESPOND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KEN BATCHELOR CADILLAC (11001 I-10, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78230, (210) 690-0700) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED A SECOND TIME. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED AT 99,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO SUBMIT A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO MAKE AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND THE SERVICE REAR AXLE AND ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RIZZA CADILLAC BUICK GMC (LOCATED AT 8425 159TH ST, TINLEY PARK, IL 60487, (708) 429-6600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED THE FOLLOWING DAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY STATED THAT THEY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE AND REPLACED THE OIL ON THE REAR AXLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STILL MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000. *TR VEHICLE HEADLIGHT PASSENGER SIDE HAD TO BE REPLACED COST $1,300 KNOWN RECALL. RECALLS WERE NOT ALLOWED BUT ARE KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE 2010 SRX TOTAL EXPENSES.

TIMING CHAIN!!!! ONLY HAD THIS TRUCK UNDER 2 YEARS 2010 CADILLAC SRX I GO TO THE MECHANIC SHOP HE TELLS ME IT'S A CRANK SHAFT SENSOR HE FIXES IT ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON HE DOES SOME MORE CHECKING THEN BOOM!!! IT'S THE TIMING CHAIN WHEN BIG THINGS LIKE THIS GO WRONG IT SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT BE OUT OF THE PURCHASERS POCKET IT SHOULD BE OUT OF THE MANUFACTURERS POCKET THIS IS RIDICULOUS ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR STILL PAYING ON THE VEHICLE I'LL NEVER IN MY LIFE OWN A CADILLAC AGAIN OR ANYTHING MADE BY THIS COMPANY

ABOUT A YEAR OR SO AGO WHILE EXITING OFF THE HIGHWAY MY CAR STARTED LOSING POWERED AND WHILE FOOT ON GAS PEDAL, GAS PEDAL STOPPED WORKING AND MERGED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE SHUTTING OFF COMPLETELY, CALLED TOW TRUCK AND EVER SINCE MY CAR LOSES POWER WHEN DRIVING PUT THE CAR IN SHOP AND THEY SAY IT'S THE TIME CHAIN/ TIME CHANGE GAZER!

PURCHASED 11/16 WITH 62K MILES, 12/16 REPLACED HIGH PRESSURE STEERING LINE, 5/18 REPLACED ALL TIMING CHAINS, 1/19 REPLACED STEERING COOLER. 2-WEEKS LATER LOWER END ROD KNOCK-CONNECTING ROD BEARING(S) BAD. NO WARNING, NO SOUNDS AND THE OIL WAS CHANGED SAME TIME AS STEERING COOLER REPLACED. NO NOTICE OF SHAVINGS IN OIL. OIL HAS BEEN CHANGED EVERY 3-5000 MILES. ALL SERVICE PERFORMED AT CADILLAC DEALERSHIP. $8999 TO REPLACE ENGINE. KBB CAR TRADE IN VALUE $7300, NOW $1000 FROM DEALERSHIP. AT 60 I'VE OWNED A LOT OF AUTOMOBILES, SEVERAL CADILLAC'S AMONG THEM AND TAKE EXCELLENT CARE OF THEM. I HAVE A PICKUP WITH 243K JUST TO SHOW HOW WELL I TAKE CARE OF THEM. THIS OUT OF THE BLUE BLOWN CONNECTING ROD BEARINGS IS HIGHLY SUSPECT. ESPECIALLY JUST HAVING HAD THE DEALER PERFORM AN OIL CHANGE. IF THE BEARINGS WERE GOING BAD THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN SHAVINGS IN THE OIL, AND WOULD HAVE BEEN OBVIOUS. SIDE NOTE. WHEN I CHECKED THE CODES BEFORE BEING TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IT HAD A P0017 CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. SAME CODE WHEN I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAINS.

MY 2010 CADILLAC SRX4 WITH 110,000 MILES JUST HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ILLUMINATE. AS I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY ON TO A CITY STREET THE NEXT MORNING TO GO TO THE GM DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE CAR SCANNED, THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY TRAVEL AT 10 MPH. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY THE VEHICLE COMING BEHIND ME. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD, WAITED FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR AND TOOK OFF SLOWLY. AFTER TRAVELING ABOUT 200 FEET, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO OPERATE AS NORMAL. HOWEVER, THE SAME SCENARIO OCCURRED AT THE NEXT STOPLIGHT. I HAD THE CAR SCANNED AND THE CODE CAME UP AS P000017. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE ESTIMATED PRICE TO REPAIR MY CAR WOULD BE $ 2,200. 00. I HAVE BEEN TO NUMEROUS SITES AND FORUMS AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE ENGINES. GM ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE PREVIOUS GENERATION SRX MODEL BUT HAS YET TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM WITH 2010 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES. GM'S CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM SIMPLY STATES THAT GM IS SORRY AND SAYS THAT YOU ARE WELCOME TO REGISTER A COMPLAINT WITH THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. THEY OFFERED AND ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER TO MYSELF WHICH BASICALLY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT I CALLED GM. HOW MANY MORE GM AUTOMOBILES DO YOU THINK I WILL PURCHASE?

TWO INCIDENTS THAT ENDANGERED MY LIFE AS WELL AS OTHERS. VEHICLE WITH 26,000 MILES DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT 65 TO 70 MPH ALL OF A SUDDEN VEHICLE STOPS COMPUTER SAYS ENGINE POWER REDUCED TRAFFIC BEHIND WAS LUCKY ABLE TO AVOID HITTING ME. SECOND INCIDENT LAST WEEK ON INTERSTATE TRAFFIC ALL STOPPED DUE TO CONSTRUCTION I HAVE LITTLE TO NO BRAKES FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO SWERVE OFF TO MY RIGHT SITUATION VERY VERY DANGEROUS.
