Case #: [XXX] ] I have a 2016 Cadillac SRX (VIN: [XXX] ) that I have owned for 8 years. Throughout this period, I have encountered some minor issues that were easily remedied. On [XXX], I started my car and some warning light came on. •The ABS light •The power steering light •The anti-skid traction light I contacted Scranton Motors in Vernon, CT and was told I had a faulty brake module: part number 20842710. Furthermore, I was told that this part number has been discontinued and no longer available. I contacted Cadillac customer care and spoke to customer service rep Alegra 866-790-5600 at extension 5918222 and she gave me a list of suppliers who may have this part. Again, I was told that this part was discontinued. The parts department had to go to the aftermarket to see if they could locate this part. It was found on eBay....

CAR IN MOTION AT 23MPH TRIED TO NAVIGATE A RIGHT HAND CURVE IN ROAD, STEERING WAS NORMAL AND THEN ALL THE SUDDEN STEERING CAUGHT AND WOULDN'T LET ME NAVIGATE THE REST OF THE RIGHT HAND TURN. BROUGHT CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP AND TRIED TO PUT CAR IN MOTION BY PRESSING GAS, STEERING WAS PERFECTLY FINE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN TWO SHORT WEEKS
