The contact owns a 2025 Cadillac XT4. The contact stated that the vehicle independently started after it was parked and turned off.

Multiple issues: Leaking transmission fluid, multiple issues with on star system, side detection system, lane keep assist. On star issue involves being unable to contact an advisor in the case of an emergency. Apps in car work intermittently, including Google Maps which is imbedded in the vehicle system. Dealership has stated that onstar and map issue is ongoing and multiple complaints have been received about this issue. Transmission leak started appears to have started right after the purchase of the vehicle. Lane Keep assist and side detection system displayed error message stating that the systems needed to be serviced.

The vehicle’s OnStar system, emergency calling features, and built-in navigation/maps do not function properly. The maps do not work, emergency calling is unreliable, and OnStar is unable to accurately locate my vehicle. This is a serious safety concern because these systems are intended to provide immediate emergency assistance and precise location information. I am the primary caregiver for my minor son, who has significant medical conditions like heart failure and requires ongoing cardiac care. In the event of a medical emergency while driving with him, it is critical that emergency services be able to locate us immediately and accurately. Because the vehicle cannot reliably provide location data or emergency communication, emergency responders may not be able to find us if assistance is needed. This creates a dangerous situation and defeats the purpose of the vehicle’s safety systems. The failure of these features makes the vehicle unsafe for transporting my child, and I do not feel safe driving it. The issue appears to involve the vehicle’s communication, software, or electrical systems and remains unresolved despite being reported. The vehicle displayed a dashboard warning stating “Service Emergency Calling,” indicating a failure of the emergency communication system. This warning confirms the emergency calling feature is not operating as designed At this moment the part is on backorder till i don’t know when

Telematics Controller has gone out. Took 2 weeks to get vehicle into dealership. After diagnosis we are told there is no availability on the part and no backorder or visibility as to when it will be available. Functionality of vehicle, value and user safety has been effected as safety and convenience features originally on the vehicle no longer function and cause distraction.

The contact stated that while driving at 20 MPH, the brake pedal depressed to the floorboard with the same warning lights illuminated. The contact continuously pumped the brake pedal to stop the vehicle and drove into an open parking lot. The contact was able to slow down enough to come to a complete stop and coasted into a parking lot. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed back to the dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed with a defective brake module. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the part for the repair was on back order. The vehicle was not repaired and remained with the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 280.

Since we purchased the vehicle, the Heads-Up display is too low, even in its highest adjusted setting. My wife is [XXX] and can only see part of the heads-up display. I am [XXX] ' tall and have to adjust the seat so far up that my head almost touches the roof to see the heads-up display on the highest setting. Dealership reports that no one else has reported the issue and will require taking the entire dash apart to diagnose. It is a safety hazard only being able to see part of the Heads-up display while driving and being so low in the windshield.
