While traveling in parking lot, another car pulled out in front of me. As I tried to brake to avoid a collision, I noticed it was taking an inordinate amount of brake pressure to slow down vehicle. Looked at tachometer and RPM's were over 4000 in drive and not losing speed. Applied brake pressure with both feet attempting to slow vehicle down. Had to slam vehicle in neutral and tap on accelerator pedal numerous times to return engine to idle RPM's. Took vehicle to cadillac dealer who advised computer said nothing occurred. This safety defect occurred again in april 2014 with same results. The dealership installed a computer monitor on vehicle after second incident, which has since been removed. Cadillac has been sent two letters regarding this incident and has taken no action except to advise them if it happens again. I really am not looking forward to this serious malfunction occurring again as it may result in unfortunate results.
