The stability system engages and disengages on its own. I have seen several fourms and reports as to people having the same issue . Happens at least 1 time a day but usually several times a day. When you are driving down the road (which is the only time it physically engages it) the stability system warning like comes on and says to service stability system and the system will engage on it's own. This is extremely dangerous as when this happens the car applys the brakes on it's own and they get alot of vibrations and it pushes the car left or right from the front end , almost got into a wreck and would love for a recall to me published for this because this is a serious safety concern .

So many rusted frame complaints should have warranted a recall. In my case a frame should not have rusted badly in less than a year . Many even show on you -tube trying to fix rusted frames because no one is listening. Underbody coating actually should have been added . Thin sheet metal sections are the worst parts .

Driving straight down a two lane road immediately started losing power. The tc light and engine light came on and stayed on. Also, the stability system check came on. Try to reset but tested it according to manual and as backing out of driveway the lights come back on and stay on. Purchased vehicle in april 2017 and one thing after another seems to happen. How do I know recalls have been fixed? When on look up on the federal safety agency shows there are no unfixed recalls but I believe they've never been fixed. Also, after rainy days if you lift up tailgate water comes pouring out.

I have a 2004 srx awd. I always get the "stability system engaged" message with some vibration and vehicle rear side goes left side and after little time its goes away . Sometimes when I step on the brake I would get a grunting sound then the "griding" from brake pedal. It happens on when vehicle speed is more than 40 MPH & few times I almost hit another vehicle in other lane.

Constantly, constant problems. Every time I turn around this car is stalling, the stability control light and traction control and ABS lights come on , slowing acceleration and causing safety issues. There are times when I see the dic message board blinking and the car acts as though it is going to stop. These issues listed on this site from all these people needs to be investigated before someone is hurt or killed. I am now writing to cadillac because the issues are getting out of control and I am afraid for my and my child's life. I am moving forward to seek out an attorney for a lawsuit this is ridiculous.
