I have taken my car to 3 different dealerships. Plus a transmission shop due to the vehicle do a jerk after it get hot sometimes. I was told the codes that were given to me that I needed a new transmission. I took it the vehicle to a GMC dealership first and was told my car was Cadilliac made and to take it to Cadillac dealership. So I drove 45 minutes to the dealership and paid another diagnostic fee and told it was old codes and they cleared those out . I came back two weeks later with this same issue. Since no one can tell me the issues with my vehicle I'm very concern about this jerk that the car does. it feels like when I go to stop the back of the car still wants to keep going. And each dealership states there's nothing wrong with my brakes or rotors. Please help me.

What 2014 Cadillac SRX owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Transmission is slipping/jerking when stopping and then when accelerating again. Multiple other owners have reported this same issue.
At lower speeds, especially after coasting, my car will lag for a few seconds before jerking forward. Also today I was coasting going about 25 mph and tried to accelerate and I pushed the pedal down and it wasn’t doing anything for several seconds then decided to start speeding up. No warning lights have come on. This has been happening for a bit but today was the first time I was concerned for my safety as I was out on a major highway
I have been trying to enjoy this vehicle from the time it became part of my life. The first 6 months, I was unable to close the sunroof, because of that my passenger seat cracked since its been exposed to the sun for 5 years, the driver's side window could not roll down which we fixed; I never owned a vehicle where I could not access my trunk. The first 6 months of having this vehicle the lifgate became inoperable. the lift gate does not work. The sensors of the vehicle are useless, the car radioi does not work the cue sticks, which can be distracting and can cause an accident so I use the YouTube on my phone for entertainment. The sensors led to the transmission deteriorating to the point of the transmission fluid burning faster and deteriorating the components of the transmission. This is going to cost me 6000.00 These are known manufacture defects for the SRX 2014. Please help

2014 cadillac srx. Consumer seeks reimbursement from vehicle repairs made regarding rear axle.
Mostly during decelerations at low speeds, as is the case for us upon entering our neighborhood, we experience hard shifts or a "buck". There are occasions when it will happen when attempting a quick acceleration from a complete stop or low speed in city traffic.
I purchased a 2014 cadillac srx and began having problems with the transmission 7 months later. I was experiencing hard shift changes constantly while driving, to the point where I almost caused an accident. I took the car to the dealer 5 times for a diagnostic review. Occording to them they did not find anything wrong with the car until I drove it there and physically requested a manager to come out and drive the vehicle with me. Then and only then they admitted something was wrong with the car, they kept it for 2 weeks and claimed they performed a complete transmission overhaul. I took the car home and 5 weeks later I was back at the dealership with the same problem, this time worst than the 1st time. By then my warranty had expired, they did not want to guarantee their repair and they wanted me to pay almost 3,000 dollars for transmission repair they claimed to have done. My other issue is with the cue, it cracked while the car was at the dealership and was told I needed to pay 1,500 dollars to fix. Second time I had an issue with it. This model has so many issues it definitely should be recalled before someone dies on the road from a faulty transmission and cues that can be dangerous because you haver to use your cell phone for navigation.
Light for service rear axle display on front display was no with a weird jerk in the drive of SUV. So I took my 2014 cadillac srx with 74000 miles to have it checked out at a cadillac dealership in nj and was told the axle oil pump needs to be replaced with service hours of 6 and grand total $1600 for repairs.
