Consumer Description

SOMETIMES WHILE ACCELERATING OUR 2014 CADILLAC SRX WILL FEEL TO STUDDER OR SKIP IN ECO MODE OR NOT. SOMETIMES WHILE AT A SLOW SPEED, 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE WILL HARD SHIFT WHILE ACCELERATING OR DECELERATING IN ECO AND NOT. SOMETIMES WHILE SLOWING THROUGH ABOUT 25 MPH THE VEHICLE WILL SURGE FORWARD VERY SLIGHTLY IN ECO AND NOT. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT 2013 MODELS OF THE SRX HAD SIMILIAR TRANSMISSION ISSUES. REFERENCING RECALL NUMBERS 14V212000 AND 13V097000 WITH DATES OF 04/25/2014 AND 03/15/2013, THESE RECALLS APPEAR TO DUPLICATE THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT WE'RE HAVING IN OUR 2014 SRX, LAG IN ACCELERATION AND TRANSMISSION RELATED ENGINE BRAKING EFFECT.
