2018 Cadillac XT5 electrical complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The accelerator on the car started to excel and shift in traffic where I had to pull over. Over the last few months the car has had some electrical issues with the braking and collision alerts going off and the car stopping which the dealer said they couldn't find the problem. Also the brakes since purchasing the vehicle has had to be switched out several times and now the parking brake light is on after being repaired 2 times. This car is definitely unsafe and the dealer insist it is.
2nd time this issue occurred. 1st time was in 2019 and it took two weeks for the dealership to figure out it was the battery. While driving the car, the electronics go crazy, the engine stops for a split second, brakes are lost for a split second, cruise control turns off, every possible alarm displays on the dash. The dash beeps, all of the lights flash, the speed/pressure/temperature needles go to 0, the air condition turns off, etc. All of this occurred while I was driving 60mph on a highway. I quickly pulled off to the side of the road. Since this has occurred before, I took out my phone and turned on the video. I started driving again and the same issues above started occurring again. The video is too large to upload - 90mb. I can send a onedrive link if needed.
When backing car up, often times the yellow "guide lines" appear, often times don't. Note makes no difference if daylight or night, weather car is clean or dirty (not affected by backup camera), clear out or raining. Brand new in april 2018, picked up from dealership, has happened since 1st week of operation. Took to dealership recently, could not find issue, said no known problems with like cars.
