I had just filed a complaint on my cts and thought I should add that it almost stalled out on a steephill with a major intersection, quit after I started it in my drive on a level ground. No stalling sound to give warning. I am sure there is more, but these are the easy ones. Again, cadillac customer service said it the stopping in traffic only happened once, so not so bad!
