SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
ON MARCH 23 WE TOOK OUR 2017 CADILLAC XT5 TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A SERVICE BECAUSE 2 DAYS PRIOR, THE PARKING BRAKE WOULD NOT RELEASE WHILE IN A STATIONARY POSITION. WE WERE ABLE TO RELEASE THE PARKING BRAKE AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE ON AND OFF MULTIPLE TIMES. ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON, BUT THE BRAKE RELEASED AND WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS READY TO BE PICKED UP THE FOLLOWING DAY. THEY HAD REPLACED THE PARKING BRAKE ACTUATOR AND STATED THAT IT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO BE RUNNING NORMALLY FOR US AND CONTINUED TO DO SO UNTIL THE MORNING OF APRIL 9TH. MY WIFE WAS JUST LEAVING WORK THAT MORNING AND STARTED DRIVING THE CAR HOME WHEN SHE APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE SLOWED OR STOPPED. SHE WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GO THROUGH THE RED LIGHT AND TURN INTO A PARKING LOT WHERE THE VEHICLE ROLLED INTO A PARKING STALL. IF SHE HAD MADE IT THROUGH THE LIGHT ON GREEN, SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE FREEWAY. THERE WAS A GRAND TOTAL OF 108 ADDITIONAL MILES SINCE THE LAST SERVICE ON MARCH 23. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY HAD IT FOR ALMOST A WEEK. THEY FOUND THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER HAD BEEN LEAKING INTO THE BOOSTER WHICH CAUSED THE FAIL. THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER WERE BOTH REPLACED. AFTER ADDITIONAL RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME/SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THEIR VEHICLE. IT APPEARS THAT ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS COMING ON AT THE SAME TIME MAY HAVE BEEN A SIGN THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS FAILING. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
Potential Consequences:
I WAS TRAVELING ON I-95 AT APRROX. 75/80 MPH WHEN MY DASHBOARD LIT-UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND MY CADILLAC POWERED DOWN TO LESS THAN 50 MPH INSTANTLY. THE STABILITRAK, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, PARKING BRAKE AND CAR ASSIST LIGHTS CAME ON WITH A WARNING TO "TRAVEL WITH CARE". I HAD TO MANEUVER MY VEHICLE OVER THREE LANES TO GET OFF AT THE NEAREST EXIT. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT JUST HAPPENED. THERE WAS NO NOISE, SMOKE OR EVIDENCE THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A PROBLEM. HOWEVER, I COULD ONLY DRIVE THE CAR 55 MPH WITH THE FOOT PEDAL PRESSED TO THE FLOOR BOARD. IT WAS 4:00 AM AND I WAS AN HOUR FROM HOME. INSTEAD OF CONTACTING ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME...TAKING PRECAUTIONS. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP...WHO COULD NOT ACCOMMODATE SERVICING MY VEHICLE UNTIL THE FOLLOWING MORNING. THE FOLLOWING MORNING, ALL THE LIGHTS WERE OFF. I DROPPED THE VEHICLE OFF AT THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. AFTER THEY CHECKED OUT MY VEHICLE AND TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE (TAKING IT UP TO 80 MPH), I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. NO CODES WERE STORED IN THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE WHAT I EXPERIENCED. I FIND THAT ODD. I AM PRETTY SURE THAT WHEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND A CAR MALFUNCTIONS THAT A CODE WOULD BE STORED.
