Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
- Software failure resulted in loss of steering control, speed control, and brakes became unavailable. I was on highway car was at 65 mph and then I got a bunch of error messages mentioned below- 1) Steering assist not available 2) AWD is disabled 3) Headlamps not available 4)Service brake assist And then I was not able to brake the car, and steering became highly unresponsive. I took my foot of gas and let the car roll for 1 mile before stopping safely on shoulder, from where I called Cadillac for support (they towed the car back), since error didn't resolve after stopping or rebooting the car. I took screenshot of these errors after stopping and attached them in this email. - Yes it put safety of me, my passenger, and other vehicles at risk, loss speed and steering control you have cause me to hit any other car. - Yes problem is reported to manufacturer, car is in service. - Vehicle is with Service, since no one got hurt, we didn't involve police. - No prior message or warnings we recieved, all errors come as soon as the issues appear.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
When it rains, just a steady rain, not a downpour, the vehicle slams on the brakes trying to back up. It literally took 3-4 minutes to back out of the driveway. I was also in a parking lot trying to back out and the same issue which created a significant safety hazard with other vehicles. Research online indicates this is not an isolated issue.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
On [XXX], my wife was driving our 2024 Cadillac Lyriq RWD (VIN: [XXX] ) in stop-and-go traffic on [XXX] at 5-10 MPH. She was maintaining a safe distance when the truck ahead suddenly stopped. She pressed the brakes firmly, but the vehicle failed to stop, resulting in a collision. Despite full brake application, the car did not stop as expected. The Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and Forward Collision Alert (FCA) systems did not activate. No alerts or braking assistance occurred, even though these safety features were enabled. Her passenger witnessed her screaming that the brakes were not stopping the car. The crash caused front bumper damage, and a police report was filed. Investigation & GM’s Response GM inspected the vehicle but refuses to provide testing details. The Crash Data Report does not show any recorded braking event or safety activation, despite my wife pressing the brakes. GM has not explained: Why the brakes failed to stop the vehicle. Why AEB and FCA did not activate. Why no braking data was recorded despite the collision. Safety Concerns My wife is now afraid to drive the vehicle and refuses to continue driving it after repairs. I may be forced to break my lease or sell the car due to this serious safety concern. This raises major safety risks for other Cadillac Lyriq owners, especially with known braking-related recalls on 2023 and 2024 models. Request for Investigation I urge NHTSA to: Investigate braking system failures in the 2024 Cadillac Lyriq. Review AEB and FCA non-activation during low-speed collisions. Determine whether GM is withholding data or failing to acknowledge a defect. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
When driving, the infotainment screen glitched. This also affected the main instrument cluster containing information like speed, and inhibited any ability to control certain functions like the headlights. While the infotainment screen was scrambled, this was not a perceived safety issue [except that cameras could not be seen] However, the main instrument cluster was concerning. Correct speed, gear position, blinkers, etc were not shown or delayed. [e.g. when going approx 30 mph, the cluster stated approx 15 mph]

Defect Description:
FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Potential Consequences:
I pulled my vehicle in my garage and was lightly tapping the accelerator to get the vehicle far enough in to avoid it interfering with the garage door. I had one-pedal driving engaged so I was not using my brake pedal. Once positioned I was getting ready to put it in park and the vehicle rapidly accelerated as if someone was stomping on the accelerator. It slammed into a refrigerator I have in the garage, pushing it about 2 inches into the wall, breaking through the drywall. The impact was so hard the refrigerator door also popped open and stuff went flying out. I had to slam on my brakes to get it to stop moving forward even though my foot was not on the accelerator.
