NHTSA Complaint #10748011 — 2011 CADILLAC CTS

PURCHASED CAR (COUPE) NEW WITH APPX. 2K MILES (HAD BEEN USED AT GOLF TOURNAMENT). A WEEK AFTER I PURCHASED, THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR DID NOT OPEN AND I WAS NOT AWARE OF EMERGENCY LEVER. I CALLED ONSTAR AND THEY WERE ABLE TO UNLOCK IT. IN THE 3 YEARS THAT I OWED IT, THE CAR LOCKED ME IN NUMEROUS TIMES. TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH ONE DEALER KEEPING THE CAR FOR ALMOST A WEEK TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT AND I WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO SERVICE ALERTS. THERE WAS ALSO AN INCIDENT WHERE I WAS ABOUT 10 FEET FROM THE CAR AND THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING FOR NO REASON AND AGAIN THE DEALERS COULD NOT EXPLAIN IT. I HAVE SINCE SOLD THE CAR BECAUSE I DID NOT WANT TO BE DEPENDENT ON ONSTAR OR AN EMERGENCY LEVER.
