4 Mar 2021 passenger side front wheel bearing failed while returning home from anniversary trip with 37,733 miles on our SRX. Dealer stated that SRX was out of warranty due to time after purchase. 5 July 2021 passenger side rear wheel bearing failed while returning home from family trip with 40,003 miles on our SRX. Called Cadillac Customer Care and received a case number. Immediately received an email stating that she was my customer advocate and would get back to me within 3 working days (email is attached). NO ONE has ever contacted me. I have contacted CCC on four different occasions with a promise every time that someone would get back to me within 48-72 hours. NO RESPONSE. I have not been discourteous to any of the Customer Care personnel and therefore, have no idea of why they do not respond to me, even if it was a DENIAL. I get the impression that this problem may be greater than they want to acknowledge and they are hoping that I will just go away. I will not, this is more about principal at this point than money. Can you provide me guidance on what to do next, or can you assist in obtaining a response to my case?

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
The headlights are not bright enough they've never been bright enough it's almost like you don't have any headlights at night time if it's dark out. I even change them out once and it's like there wasn't enough power to them to make them bright. I have not very good Vision at night and I can't even really drive the car at night unless it's in the city. A couple of people I have told me they had the same problem with the headlights and even the guy at the auto place told me that his wife had the same car and he changed her headlights and it was still bad so he changed them back and that's exactly what I did. Hardly usable at all at night I wish there was something they could do or find out if there is a flaw in the design because everyone I've talked to that has this year and type of car says the same exact thing and no one has given me any resolution on what they did they just lived with it. I love the car 100% in every other way but the headlights are a incredible Factor for night driving and since I do live somewhat in the country I always have to take the other vehicle at night time.

Defect Description:
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
THERE HAS BEEN A GRADUAL DECREASE IN THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE LOW BEAMS ON THIS VEHICLE. MY WIFE IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER OF IT AND DOESN'T DRIVE IT TOO MUCH AT NIGHT, BUT I WAS DRIVING IT RECENTLY AND NOTICED HOW POOR THE LIGHTING IS AT NIGHT, IN PARTICULAR ON WET ROADS. IT IS TO THE POINT THAT VISIBILITY IS NOT THAT FAR IN FRONT. IF A PERSON OR ANIMAL WAS ON THE ROAD, IT PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE SEEN UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS ALMOST UPON IT. HIGH BEAMS ARE NOT A PROBLEM. THERE IS NO PARTICULAR MOMENT THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED - IT'S BEEN OVER TIME. FROM INTERNET RESEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH SRX'S.
