NHTSA Complaint #11340351 — 2014 CADILLAC ATS

REAR LEFT/REAR RIGHT AXLE SEALS LEAKING REPORTED TO ME ON 06/01/2020 WHILE 2014 ATS WAS IN FOR SERVICE FOR TIRES AND COOLANT LEAK MILEAGE 71,538. I WAS ADVISED IT'S A VERY SLOW DRIP AND IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF RIGHT AWAY BUT TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT VEBALLY OVER THE PHONE. I LOOKED BACK ON MY SERVICE RECORDS AND THE LEAK WAS DETECTED ON 03/20/2020 BY THE DEALER BUT R.0 CLOSURE DATE IS NOTED AS 03/18/2020 I WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF A CRITICAL REPAIR NEEDED ON THE DRIVE AXLE (REAR DIFFERENTIAL LEAK) ODOMETER ON 03/18/2020 59,750. THE SEALS SHOULD NOT BE BREAKING AT THIS MILEAGE... THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. IT'S A MASSIVE ISSUE WITH THE CADILLAC ATS. THIS IS GOING TO COST AROUND $1500.00 TO FIX NOW... WHICH IS OBSURD. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVE THE CAR LIKE THIS AS PER MANY ONLINE REPORTS THAT I'VE READ ONLINE.
