NHTSA Complaint #10972306 — 2009 CADILLAC CTS

I OWN A 2009 CADILLAC CTS, WITH APPROXIMATELY 90,000 MILES. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO MY CADILLAC DEALER. I WAS TOLD MY TIMING CHAIN IS STRETCHED, LOOSE OR NEEDS ADJUSTMENT. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST $1800. UPON RESEARCH I DISCOVERED THERE WAS SUPPOSEDLY A SPECIAL WARRANTY ON THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM. I CALLED THE CADILLAC DEALER, GAVE THEM MY VIN NUMBER AND WAS TOLD, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. I WAS VERY SKEPTICAL AND DID NOT BELIEVE THAT I WAS GETTING ACCURATE INFORMATION. I WANT TO DOCUMENT THIS NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE WITH MY VEHICLE. IT COST ME $1280 TO REPAIR. THE CADILLAC TECHNICIAN TOLD ME I COULD DRIVE IT WITH NO PROBLEMS. COMMON SENSE SAYS OTHERWISE!
