2011 CADILLAC SRX Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

The contact owns a 2011 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the traction control and stabili-trak warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, the vehicle was jerking intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the rod bearing needed to be replaced. The part was replaced on two different occasions; however, the failure reoccurred. Additionally, the contact stated that the headlight film clear coating was worn out and was clouding the visibility of the bulbs. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the headlights needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 96,000.

MY STABILIZER TRACK/ABS LIGHT CAME ON BUT BEFORE IT DID MY CAR WAS DRIVING ABOUT 20 MILES EVEN THOUGH I HAD MY FOOT DOWN ON THE GAS. THEN IT JUMPS INTO MOVING FAST. THE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF, SO WHEN IT'S OFF THE CAR WON'T MOVE IT DRAGS THEN IT JUMPS BUT WHEN THE STABILIZER TRACK/ABS LIGHT COMES BACK ON IT DOESN'T DO THIS. I CHECKED RECALLS AND IT SAYS MY VEHICLE DOESN'T HAVE ANY BUT WHO KNOWS IF THIS HAS BEEN FIXED IMPROPERLY BEFORE. I WAS DRIVING AND CARS WERE BEEPING THEN WHEN IT JUMPED I ALMOST HIT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME.

THERE ARE 7 RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND THE MECHANIC VERIFIES THAT NONE OF THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED

STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER HAPPENED AT A STOP LIGHT. VEHICLE WAS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC APPROACHING TRAFFIC LIGHT ON HIGHWAY EXIT RAMP. CAR THROTTLE BODY ISSUES ALREADY NOTED FOR OTHER CADILLAC SRX MODELS OF SAME YEAR BUT GM SAID OUR VIN WAS NOT COVERED. IT IS THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM LISTED IN THE GM SERICE BULLITIN # 14582A FROM OCTOBER 2015.

SUN ROOF DRAIN HOSE IS NOT PROBABLY SET UP. WHICH CASED LIFT GET MODULES TO SHORT OUT SO I CAN ALONG OR USE THE LIFT GATE AND WATER TO RUN IN TO THE VEHICLE

THIS WINTER IT WAS FREEZING, MY 2011 SRX CADILLAC DISPLAYED A "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" MESSAGE, AND I COULDN'T GO OVER ABOUT 5 MILES PER HOUR. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE CAR. AFTER A SHORT TIME, I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND HAD POWER BACK. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIP WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. THEY SAID IT WAS MY THROTTLE BODY SENSOR. THE COST CAME TO $603. I WAS THE SECOND CAR OUT OF FOUR WITHIN A ONE WEEK TIME FRAME THAT HAD TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED. CADILLAC DID A RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM ON ITS OTHER VEHICLES BUT NOT THE SRX.
