2016 Cadillac Srx

MY 2016 SRX CADILLAC. THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT I CAN NOT DRIVE AT NIGHT. IT'S NOT SAFE. I CAN NOT SEE AT ALL ON THE ROAD AT NIGHT. I READ THERE WAS A SETTLEMENT AND A REIMBURSEMENT OVER THIS BUT THAT I MISSED THE DEADLINE FOR IT. I NEVER KNEW OR RECEIVED ANYTHING IN THE MAIL ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE THAT WAS HAPPENING TO CALL SRX CADILLACS. NOT JUST MINE

THERE HAS BEEN A GRADUAL DIMMING OF THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT AT TIMES THEY ARE OF NO VALUE. THIS HAS CREATED A SERIOUS SITUATION, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN. IT CREATES CRITICAL PERIODS WHEN I MUST USE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS IN TRAFFIC JUST TO SEE THE ROADWAY. THIS APPEARS TO BE A CONTIUING ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AS I HAVE READ ABOUT SIMILAR DEFECTS AND POSSIBLE REMEIDIES.

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM UNTIL HIGH BEAMS HAVE TO BE USE IN ORDER TO SEE. LOW BEAM APPEARS LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY LIGHTS ON OR MAYBE PARK LIGHTS. UNSAFE BECAUSE OTHER VEHICLES CAN'T SEE YOU WITH LOW BEAM ON AND YOU CAN'T SEE. DRIVER SEAT MOTOR WENT OUT MAKING IT COMPLICATED TO REACH THE EXCELERATOR AND BRAKE. ON THE LUMBAR PART WORKS. ALL OF THIS IS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DIM AND PER DEALERSHIP NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH CADILLAC. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FIR THIS ISSUE. THE CUE TOUCH SYSTEM BUTTON'S ON THE CENTER ARE NOT RESPONDING/LOCKED. I AM NOT ABLE TO USE GPS, CHANGE THE TIME OR ANY OF THE SETTINGS ON THE MENU. THIS IS ALSO A WELL KNOWN ISSUE AND HAS HAD A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME THAT THE RAIL CONTROL ASSEMBLY AND THE BOTH FROMT HEADLAMPS NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE TOTAL COST OF REPAIRS IS $3,126.95. BOTH IS THESE ARE SAFETY CONCERNS. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT I CANNOT SEE PROPERLY TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE LIGHTING WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MOSES CADILLAC BUICK GMC TRUCK INC (1406 WASHINGTON ST E, CHARLESTON, WV 25301) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE WEATHER SEALS IN THE HEADLIGHT HOUSINGS ALLOWED MOISTURE TO ENTER THE LIGHTS AND CORRODED THE REFLECTORS. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 94,000.

WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. THERE IS GOING TO BE A PROBLEM WHEN SOMEONE IS KILLED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND BY CADALLIC WON'T FIX THE PROBLEM THEY REPLACE THE LIGHTS ON 2000 THRU 2015 BUT NOT THE 2016. I HAVE INSTRUCTED MY CHILDREN TO FILE SUIT WITH CADILLAC IF SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN TO MY HUSBAND AND I IN A CAR WRECK OR SOMEONE HURTING ME CAUSE MY BRIGHTS ARE ON. I HAVE WROTE A LETTER TO CADILLAC SO THEY HAVE ONE ON FILE.

GMC KNOWN PROBLEM. LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS TOO DIM TO DRIVE SAFELY DURING HOURS OF DARKNESS. GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM STARTING WITH APPROXIMATELY 2010 YEAR MODEL. GM DID NOT CONTACT OWNERS AND IN FACT WE RECEIVED NO NOTICE OF THIS OBVIOUS SAFETY DEFECT EVEN THOUGH GM HAS BEEN AWARE OF IT FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS LAWSUITS AND REPORTS AND SEVERAL ACCIDENTS ATTRIBUTED TO THE DEFECTIVE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM IS COVERED BY DOT REGULATIONS AND AS SUCH I AM REQUESTING A FORMAL INVESTIGATION AND PUNITIVE ACTION REGARDING OUR 2016 CADILLAC SRX. AGAIN I WILL RESTATE THAT WE WERE NOT CONTACTED ABOUT A KNOWN DANGEROUS DEFECT IN THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. GM IS ALSO INSISTING THAT OWNERS PAY UP FRONT FOR REPAIRS AND SUBMIT DOCUMENTATION FOR REIMBURSEMENT WHILE ALSO IMPOSING UNREASONABLE TIME LIMITS AND CUTOFF DATES. THIS IS A DOT SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE ADDRSS IT AS SUCH. THANK YOU.
