My wife was backing at less than 2 and hit a truck behind her. She said no alarms sounded, the only thing she heard was noise of hitting a truck behind her. No police called or report made. When car was repaired the repair shop (Fields Collision, Jacksonville FL) they took my 2023 Cadillac to Fields Cadillac for final check out. Fields Cadillac said there were no sensors in rear bumper to alert driver. Fields Cadillac said there is only plugs in rear bumper. I contacted the dealership (DIMMITT Cadillac in Clearwater) where I purchased the vehicle and they say the car was checked out and all sensors were working but on my way home I noticed the blind side warning did not work so I took the car to Fields Cadillac for this to be fixed, so I know the car was not tested. I would like someone from GM look at the warning system and tell me it is safe.

When the car was put in Reverse Gear, the car was still moving forward and not moving backwards. I tried it multiple times, but it was still moving forward. There was a car in front of my car and since the car was expected to go backwards, this issue put the safety at risk as I could hit the car in front. This issue does not happen every time I do reverse. I bought the car on 1st October and notice the issue on 2nd October 2022.
