There are 8 owner-reported brakes complaints for the 2015 Cadillac SRXin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Nothing has happened yet, however, we just bought this vehicle and the Stabilitrack light came on 2 days after we bought it. We took it to a mechanic and it coded C056D, brake module hardware fault. He said that "the Cadillac must go to the dealership, 2010-2016 SRX's have brake control module problems and they don't make the module anymore so it has to be removed and sent off for rebuild then programmed to the car." How in the world can Cadillac have a known problem, and quit making the part that fixes it? If you get on Cadillac forums, it is all they talk about on these models. Cadillac should be held responsible for fixing this problem for thousands of Cadillac owners so that we can drive with no braking problems!! We just got a bid from our closest Cadillac dealership and the cost to rebuild the part is $2000, labor $1000 and we would be without a car for 2 weeks!!!
The contact owns a 2015 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the ABS module warning light illuminated. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the ABS module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that parts were no longer being manufactured to replace the part. The approximate failure mileage was 74,000.
ABS CONTROL MODULE FAILED CAUSING THE ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE WARNING. MODULE MUST BE REPLACED FOR THE ABS SYSTEM TO WORK PROPERLY AT A COST OF $1,600
BRAKE, ABS, and traction message came on at the same time. EBCM 20842710 is the part number. Been at BIG STAR CADILLAC in Houston, Texas a month with no explanation except waiting on GM for parts but the Dealership can’t tell me anything and I am ready to call the News station about this situation. They can’t get me in another vehicle unless it’s NEW with a hefty down payment that I don’t have. I have dialysis 3 times a week and now I have to use my wife’s car, now she can’t get to work. What are we supposed to do??? How much longer do I have to wait? They can’t answer that either. This is the USAand can’t get a simple part. No one seem to care either. Very distraught and unhappy. I need help and I need it NOW!!!
A brake module went out in the car August 2021. Brake, ABS, stability track, power steering warning lights all on. Cruise control doesn’t work. Lane assistant and back up camera system not fully operational. This is a warranty repair. It’s been 4 months and Cadillac can’t get the part to fix it. A brake module seams important
FOR MONTHS NOW I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKES. THEY ALL OF A SUDDEN GO HARD AND DON'T BRAKE AS EASY AS THEY SHOULD ALSO TAKE A LOT LONGER TO BREAK AND HAVE TO PUSH DOWN FURTHER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN A DAY OR TWO LATER IT'S GONE. IT COMES AND GOES RANDOMLY. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY DON'T SEE A PROBLEM AND HAVE NO RECALLS.
BREAKING SYSTEM SEEMS DELAYED, APPLYING FOOT ON THE PEDAL TO BREAK TAKES MORE PRESSURE THEN USUAL. ALSO WHEELS ARE CONSTANTLY SQUEAKING. FOR OVER A YEAR I'VE BROUGHT THIS ATTENTION TO THE DEALERSHIPS MECHANIC WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THEIR ONLY IMPLY IS THAT THE BREAKS ARE CERAMIC AND WILL DO THIS REGARDLESS. THIS DOES NOT SEEM SAFE. EVERY TIME I USE MY BREAKS I HAVE TO ADJUST THE TIMING AND PAY CLOSER ATTENTION TO DRIVING WHEN USING THE BREAK SYSTEM. THE VEHICLES BREAK SYSTEM DOES NOT FEEL SAFE ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, 8/6/15, MY 2 WEEK OLD 2015 CADILLAC SRX (650 MILEAGE) SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND CONTINUED TO DO SO WHILE I WAS STEPPING ON THE BRAKES, REPEATEDLY. MY WIFE AND I COULD SMELL THE BRAKE PADS AS IF THEY WERE "BURNING" FROM THE PRESSURE I APPLIED BUT THE SRX WOULD NOT STOP. WHENEVER I LIFTED MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKES SLIGHTLY, THE VEHICLE SURGED FORWARD. I PULLED OVER INTO THE LEFT SHOULDER AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. WE WERE TRAUMATIZED AS OUR GRANDCHILD WAS IN THE VEHICLE . THE SRX HAS BEEN IN THE CADILLAC SERVICE DEPARTMENT THE PAST TWO WEEKS AS THEY TRY TO FIND THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE COMPUTER DID NOT REPORT ANY PROBLEM AND TEST DRIVES WOULD NOT DUPLICATE THE OCCURRENCE FOR THE SERVICEMAN.
