NHTSA Complaint #11718201 — 2024 CADILLAC LYRIQ

After a manufacturer-initiated software/system update was performed on my 2024 Cadillac Lyriq approximately two weeks ago, the vehicle stopped charging and stopped generating heat. I brought the vehicle to Cadillac Norwood MA for diagnosis. The dealership informed me that a replacement part is needed, but the part does not currently exist and must be manufactured by General Motors. They could not provide any timeline for when the part would be available or when the vehicle would be repaired. The vehicle is being held at the dealership indefinitely. I have opened a case with Cadillac's EV Concierge and filed a formal complaint with them, but have not received a resolution or timeline. This vehicle is used professionally as a chauffeur vehicle and the inability to charge or heat the vehicle renders it completely inoperable and unsafe, particularly in Massachusetts winter conditions. A vehicle losing all charging capability and cabin heating after a software update represents a serious safety concern for EV owners
