2024 CADILLAC LYRIQ Unknown Or Other Problems

At least 10 times over the past three months the vehicle’s feature of one pedal driving disengages without a reason or code. When the this happens the vehicle accelerates rapidly. This has happened on local streets and on the highway and often results in a near miss collision. I am concerned this will result in a serious injury or death.

The phone charging cradle, Bluetooth, wifi, and Radio are getting disconnected, repair made 3-4 times, and still the same problem, also dashboard screen getting dark or disconnected while driving the car. On 01/09 2025, 10 pm I connected to charge the battery and it didn't charge the whole night when I started the car, and heard a big bang like a bomb blew the electrical battery in my garage, thank god I didn't get injured or damage to my garage/home. I took the 5th time to the dealer and asked General Moror to buy back the car. I have filed a written complaint with BBB OF NEW JERSEY and Lemon Law. Thank god I wasn't driving the car on highway when the car battery blew up otherwise I would have or other people would have gotten injured or dead.

We leased a Cadillac Lyriq on [XXX] for our Daughter [XXX] old) on [XXX] with my Son [XXX] ) while driving on [XXX] the car accelerator failed and my daughter pulled over. My wife received a text message from Onstar which said service the drive train immediately. My daughter pulled over and called me and said the car wasnt working and it was smoking.

Thank God the doors were able to be opened and my kids got out safely. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

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.

Vehicle dash won't activate beyond the welcome screen thereby preventing me from seeing the speedometer, fuel gage, lane sensors, navigation, etc. I had to drive it on side streets to the closest dealer without aid of any standard dash meters.

On or about 11/14/24 Car found completely dead and won't start in garage. Car had about 50% charge in main battery pack and 12V completely dead. Called OnStar service and they had vehicle taken to dealership on flatbed. GM app reports Vehicle Issues: "Electric Drive Unit, Lithium Ion Battery, Electric Drive Unit, and 12V battery require your attention now." Vehicle purchased on or about 8/18/24 and at time of failure car had about 385 miles. Car kept garaged when not in use in pristine condition. Dealer reports as of 11/23/24 they do not know the problem with the car. I have been without use of my only car since 11/14/24.

The vehicle initially had a windshield manufacturing defect according to Cadillac Service Center which allowed plenty of water to go inside the vehicle during heavy rain. After the vehicle was serviced weeks later I was driving and the digital dashboard when completely yellow and red. At the same time the automatic brakes activated and I almost got rear ended. They serviced the car again after being tow trucked and “couldn’t” determine the cause of the dashboard incident shown on the pictures.

Backup camera is black with lines when shifting in reverse. Unable to see to backup and almost hit someone walking behind me

After dark, the rear camera is inactive. Also after dark, sometimes the backup lights do not come on in reverse. According to [XXX] , this is due to a defect with the rear electrical harness because an active license plate light circuit interferes with the camera and backup lights circuits.
