THE SELLER LIED ABOUT EVERYTHING! THE FIRST QUESTION I ASKED WAS IF THE CAR WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. HE BRAGGED ABOUT BEING A MECHANIC, AND DOING ALL THE WORK ON THE CAR, SO EVERYTHING IN THE CAR IS IN, "TIP TOP SHAPE." HE REPLIED, "NO, NEVER!" HE DID NOT ALLOW US TO RIDE THE CAR ON THE INTERSTATE BEFORE THE PURCHASE, CLAIMING IT WAS ILLEGAL. 10 MINS AFTER LEAVING THE CAR LOT, THE CAR CUTS OFF AND IS UNABLE TO CRANK BACK UP. THE SELLER MEETS US AND CLAIMS IT THE BATTERY. A "NEW" BATTERY WAS PLACED IN THE VEHICLE, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. MY FIANC, WHO IS NOT A MECHANIC, TOLD HIM MORE THAN ONCE, THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT THE BATTERY, BUT THE ALTERNATOR. HE GOT THE CAR TO CRANK. AS WE ARE RIDING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, THE CAR CUTS OFF, AND WE ARE LEFT AIMLESSLY ROLLING AND ARE UNABLE TO CONTROL THE WHEEL. PLUS, THE ELECTRICITY IN THE CAR IS OFF SO WE CAN'T EVEN TURN ON OUR HAZARD LIGHTS TO CAUTION THE OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD. AFTER SPEAKING TO THE SELLER, ONCE AGAIN, HE TELLS US THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO ABOUT IT AND WILL NOT CANCEL THE DEAL. WE'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 4-5 HOURS. AFTER SPEAKING TO SEVERAL MECHANICS, THEY QUICKLY CONFIRM THAT THE ALTERNATOR IS THE PROBLEM AND ANYBODY THAT CLAIMS TO BE A MECHANIC CAN SEE THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. THEY ALSO INFORM US THE CAR HAS BEEN WRECKED AND SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN RESOLD FOR SAFETY MEASURES. DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ALMOST COST US OUR LIVES.

WHEN GETTING INTO THE PASSENGER SEAT AND SOMEONE WEIGHED ENOUGH TO ACTIVATE THE AIR BAG TO BE ON THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD FLICKER. THEN AFTER A WHILE THE AIR BAG LIGHT JUST STAYED ON AND HASN'T TURNED OFF EVEN WHEN KNOWONES SITTING THEIR. THIS STARTED HAPPENING ONLY WHEN SOMEONE WOULD ENTER THE CAR WHILE STATIONARY WITH THE VEHICLE ON. IT'S BEEN ABOUT 2 MONTHS SINCE THIS HAS STARTED.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN OUR HOME GARAGE. IT WOULD NOT START, IT WOULD START WHEN JUMPED BUT DIED SHORTLY AFTER. WE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED, IT WAS BAD, WE REPLACED W A NEW BATTERY. CAR STARTED RIGHT UP, BUT WOULD NOT CUT POWER ONCE THE KEY WAS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. CAR DINGS AND DASH AND RADIO ARE ON AS IF KEYS ARE STILL IN THE IGNITION.

Rear differential seal leaking Midas told me when I had the oil changed right after I got the car exactly one year and one day ago today and there is like a weird noise when I drive but if I turn the heat or air in it stops

MINE IS THE TIMING CHAIN SLIPS CAUSED FROM WRONG VALVE COVER GASKET AND THE LIFE ON THE OIL

I WAS GIVING A RECALL PAPER IN THE MAIL , SO I TOOK MY CAR TO THE ADDRESS LISTED ON THE REFORM. THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T DO THE RECALL. THE REASON THEY DECIDED NOT TO DO IT WAS BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE CORRECT KEYS AND WAS TOLD ' YOU CAR DOESN'T NEED IT, IT DOESN'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM UNLESS YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL KEY'. I TRIED CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER TO CONFIRM THIS CLAM BUT THEY LEFT ME ON HOLD. I HAVE THE IMPRESSION THEY DIDN'T WANT TO DO THE SERVICE FOR FREE.I JUST WANT TO KNOW WEATHER MY CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

WHILE TURNING LEFT AT LOW SPEED THE BRAKES FAILED SO I CENTERED THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE CAR STOPPED.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH THAT WHEN HIT THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK. I WAS HIT TWICE ON DRIVER REAR AND PASSENGER REAR, SPUN OUT AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS CROSSING OVER A CITY ROAD FROM A STOP SIGN, WAS HIT AT 60 MPH. I WAS DOING 20 MPH GOING STRAIGHT ACROSS FROM THE STOP SIGN.

MY CAR HAS MOMENTS WHERE I HAVE TO SLAM HARD ON THE. RAKES FOR IT TO STOP. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY BRAKES BUT I HAD THEM CHANGED AND IT STILL DOES IT AND FLASHES A SIGN THAT SAYS 'NO TRACTION CONTROL'. ALSO MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT WORK ON THE INSIDE AS IF THERE'S A MECHANICAL GLITCH. AND I HAVE A 'SERVICE AITBAG CODE' CONSTANTLY.

THE DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT CUSHION/ AIR BAG MODULE, WHICH IS THE SAME ITEM REPLACED IN AUGUST 2011. EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN 7/8 YEARS SINCE REPAIR, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 35,000. OF THOSE 35,0000, A FRONT PASSENGER WAS PROBABLY IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FOR ONLY 15,000 MILES.

TAKATA RECALL. WE HAVE AN AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. TOOK IN TO DEALER. SAYS THE CODE B092 NEEDS PASS. PRESENCE. QUOTED US ALMOST $1000 FOR REPAIR. NOTE THAT THIS RECALL WAS TAKEN IN AND DONE NOV 2013. WHY IS IT MESSING UP AGAIN? HOW LONG IS THE REPAIR SUPPOSED TO LAST? SHOULDN'T IT BE FIXED AT NO COST TO US?

TAKATA RECALL. WE HEARD FROM GM RECALL CENTER THAT OUR LOCAL GM DEALER, RALLY AUTO, DID THIS RECALL NOV 15, 2013. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AGAIN NOT EVEN 5 YEARS LATER. WE ARE SENIORS AND DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR THAT FAR. WE TOOK IT IN TO RALLY AND THEY PUT IT ON A MACHINE AND CHARGED US $143 TO TELL US IT WOULD BE ALMOST $1000 TO FIX THE AIRBAG MODULE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IN RESEARCHING, IT SAYS THAT THE RECALLS NEVER EXPIRE IF THE MANUFACTURER AND PARTS AVAILABILITY ARE STILL THERE. WE ARE SENIORS ON LIMITED INCOME AND THIS IS EXHORBITANT FEES. THEY DID NOT CHECK UNDER THE SEAT TO SEE IF IT MIGHT BE A SIMPLE BREAKAGE OR BENDING OF WIRES I DON'T BELIEVE. CAN YOU HELP US GET THIS FIXED? IT SEEMS IT SHOULD NOT BE MESSED UP SO SOON. THANK YOU.

THE CAR IS RUNNING LIKE IT IS STUCK IN SOME KIND OF SAFETY MODE. IT DOES NOT WANT TO ACCELERATE UNLESS IT STARTS ACCELERATING IN THIRD GEAR. IT DOES NOT COME OUT OF 3RD GEAR AT ALL. THE ENGINE LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE LIT UP ON THE DASH. THERE IS A COUPLE OF RECALLS LISTED FOR THE SAME EXACT YEAR MAKE AND MODEL BUT IT SAYS THAT THIS VIN NUMBER IS NOT UNDER RECALL. I THINK THAT THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE INSPECTED TO SEE IF IT ACTUALLY DOES NEED TO BE LISTED UNDER THOSE RECALLS. IT IS NOT JUST THIS ONE SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER HAVING THESE ISSUES EITHER. I HAVE TALKED TO QUITE A FEW CADILLAC OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND THEIR VEHICLES ARE NOT LISTED UNDER THOSE RECALLS EITHER. IF YOU TURN ON THE CAR YOU PUT IT INTO DRIVE THE CAR REMAINS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR AND WILL NOT SHIFT THROUGH THE GEARS PROPERLY.

MY CAR WAS RUNNING FINE. THEN MY ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE A LOUD TRUCK. NO WARNING CAME. THE CHECK ENGINE LITE NEVER WENT ON SO I STOP DRIVING IT TILL IT WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO HAVE IT TOWED AND WHEN I STARTED UP THE CAR THE ENGINE BLEW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR WITH A LIFETIME LIMITED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND IT COVERS THE ENGINE. THE WARRANTY IS GOOD FOR LIFE AS LONG AS I OWN THE CAR AND KEEP UP ON ALL MAINTANCE AT A GM DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID FOR 8 YRS. THE WARRANTY COMPANY WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT IT FROM CLOSED. I CALLED GM AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY STATED I NEED TO GO TO THE WARRANTY COMPANY. NOTHING STATES IN MY WARRANTY IF THE DEALERSHIP CLOSES THAT MY WARRANTY IS INVALUED. THAT IS NOT RIGHT I FEEL THAT GM SHOULD PAY THE COST OF THIS ENGINE BECAUSE I BELIEVE MY CHECK ENGINE LITE WAS FAULTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC CTS. WHILE DRIVING LOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO ENGAGE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT SHE USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 56,000.

WAS DRIVING AND SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST MESSAGE CAME ON TWO DAYS AGO ALONG WITH THE ABS T/C LIGHT ON THE DASH. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANT SO I'VE KEPT DRIVING. ABOUT AN HOUR AGO I WAS GETTING READY TO PARK INTO MY GARAGE AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK AND I ALMOST CRASHED INTO A PARKED CAR. AGAIN THE SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON. I'M 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AND THIS IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION. I'M NOT LOOKING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT DUE TO MY BRAKES FAILING. MY SERVICE AIR BAGS MESSAGE ALSO COMES UP AND EVEN WITH A PASSENGER IN THE CAR IT DOESN'T STATE THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS ON. I AM PRETTY SURE BOTH OF THESE ISSUES WERE PART OF A RECALL BUT I HADN'T OWNED THE CAR DURING THAT TIME. AS OF NOW THIS CAR IS A FATAL ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AND I'M UNSURE AS TO WHY THERE ISN'T STILL AN OPEN RECALL TO ADDRESS THIS BRAKE FAILURE ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING AND WENT TO STOP AT PARKING SPACE AND THE BRAKES FAILED AND I HIT THE WALL IN THE PARKING SPACE.
