Recalled are 2019-2020 Cadillac XT4 vehicles with video processing modules (VPM) that may lose communication with the rearview cameras. This will cause the rearview camera image to fail. GM opened an investigation in August following backup camera failures in 2020 Cadillac XT4 SUVs. The automaker found increased warranty claims for camera failures on 2019 and 2020 XT4s. GM also received nearly 850 field reports between December 28, 2018, to September 19, 2022. According to General Motors, the problem with the video processing module is a software anomaly that allows the communication issues. A Cadillac XT4 driver may notice a problem if the backup camera image is replaced with a black or blue screen. Cadillac expects to mail XT4 recall letters January 9, 2022, and dealers will update the processing modules. In addition, the video processing modules will be replaced in 2019 Cadillac XT4 SUVs. Cadillac XT4 owners who want to learn more about the recall should call 800-458-8006 and ask about rearview camera image recall number N222373320. from this website: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I have a Cadillac XT4 with 33K miles. Last week my battery was dead. As a senior citizen who is a widow it is important that I not be stuck in a situation where I cannot get my car started which is why I am diligent with my maintenance. After I finally got my car to the dealership where I was charged $425 for the battery I started to investigate other owners complaints of this nature. Based on simple Google searches, It appears that the XT4 has alot of battery problems. This puts the driver in a dangerous situation. I called GM helpdesk who said that there is no recall at this time, but if there is one that I will be notified. Why wait? I know this may not seem like a huge safety problem to you like airbags etc, but the battery being dead with no prior indication puts people in a dangerous situation. I appreciate what your agency does and thank you for reading this

I have a 2020 cadillac xt4. When I first purchased the car in 2021, it already needed a new battery. Since owning the vehicle, I've had to change the battery two times already with 3 years. When I go to start the car (push start) sometimes the car wouldn't turn over or turn on and my dash board would illuminate stating service stabilitrak. Sometimes it would take like 5-8 tries before the car turned on. When it did turn on, my check engine light came on, I couldn't accelerate beyond 43 miles, my braking system was not working and a lot of features on my car stopped working like the lane assistant didn't work, and neither did my cruise control, or emergency braking. Took it to O'Reilly and bought a new battery. Once I installed the new battery, the check engine light disappeared and the car started driving fine again.

During the two winter seasons I owned the Cadillac XT4 the Stabilitrack feature of the car malfunctioned every time it freezes outside and the check engine light came in. It was still under warranty and it was repaired last year at Foley Cadillac in Northbrook, IL and this year the light came on again warning of a malfunction of the same issue and I called to make an. Appointment to have it repaired again. I traded the vehicle off because of this issue. I felt it to be unsafe and it would soon be out of warranty. Jay, the salesperson at Ziegler Buick that sold me the new Buick Envision told me that Cadillac XT 4s all have that issue and made reference to the fact is it a defect of purpose to keep customers paying to have it fixed every year. While this is here say, I am more inclined to believe it. The approximate date below is for this last episode and is approx. I don't remember the exact date.

RECALL for repair of Back UP Camera because it intermittently stops working. XT4 has been taken in TWICE for this recall January and February of 2023. The camera continues to intermittently stop working. This problem needs to be resolved in order for vehicle to operate safely.

On 03/16/2022 I was pulling away from my driveway on flat even pavement. As I accelerated the side curtain airbags malfunctioned and inflated.. there is no damage to the vehicle, and the report sent from onstage immediately following shows all information modules show no issues. We sent the vehicle to the dealership they have given us the run around for over a month and now say their finding doesn't merit fixing issue and I can transfer my claim from "faulty part" to warranty department "Only side curtain airbags deployed" both sides

The wiring in the Cadillac is soy based and squirrels have ate the wires out of my engine three times. It makes the steering compromised and unsafe. The warning comes up drive with caution steering compromised. Not exact but you get the jest
