2011 CADILLAC SRX Exterior Lighting Problems

The headlight low beam illumination is extremely dangerous for driving at night. Very poor illumination distance and very poor overall lighting. Can barely even see pedestrians walking if on the side or crossing the road, VERY DANGEROUS!! Have to turn on high-beams when possible just to see at night.

There were recalls on this vehicle. I just purchased and trying to get assistance.

I own a 2011 Cadillac SRX and have experienced a serious issue with the headlights. Over time, the headlights became extremely dim, making it difficult and dangerous to drive at night. This was not due to the bulbs themselves, but rather an issue with the headlight housing or design, which many other Cadillac SRX owners have also reported. The visibility is so poor that it creates a major safety concern for myself, my passengers, and others on the road. Despite the widespread nature of this issue and media coverage (including WSOC-TV Channel 9’s investigation), there has been no recall or extended warranty to cover the cost of repairs, which can be significant. I am submitting this complaint in hopes that the NHTSA will investigate and consider opening a recall to address this recurring and dangerous issue with the 2011 SRX headlight system.

The car is extremely unsafe. The headlights are dim no matter how many times they are replaced. I have to drive with high beams on.

After braking hard, skidding or going over a hard bump, brakes go to the floor and do not recover. This has ongoing since I purchased the car in 2012.

The headlights dim and the cars can't be driven at night. It's a well documented issue.

The headlights are failing at night creating a safety concern. The first time I drove at night the headlights were like not even on. I about hit someone when they approached me and I dimmed my lights. You can see only on brights. Performed Google search to learn many of these, if not all, have faulty headlights. Purchased this vehicle in March 2024, contacted dealer was advised it’s not covered under warranty. Was advised to take it to the GM dealer, they want $1200 each side to fix and what I’ve read this doesn’t fix the faulty headlights either. Help, can’t drive at night at all and I’m disabled and unable to repair.

My 2011 SRX has lost brake power 4 times in the past 2 years. I reported to GM as other owners had this complaint. I hit the brakes at low speed when going into a parking lot incline and lose my brake power. The brakes go to the floor and eventually the car stops. Thankfully no other car was near me as the car is hard to stop. I also slammed on my brakes around 25-30 mph as another car was coming head on in my lane. Once the collision was avoided I tried to stop at a red light. Again the brakes went to the floor without stopping the vehicle immediately. My auto mechanic test drove it everywhere to see if he could reproduce the issue, but could not . I contacted GM and they told me to take it to a dealership which I did. They could not find anything but bled the brake lines hoping this was the issue. It was not. I went over an inclined manhole on a side street going about 5-10 miles and afterwards the brakes were very soft. I read in the SRX cadillac forum that others that had the same issue said to try and pump the brakes. I did this and the brake power re- engaged. This is a scary safety issue as I am always wondering if my brakes will stop the car. I only have 80000 miles on this car and keep routine maintenance. I also have an issue with the condensation of the headlights that dims the lighting on the headlights. I had received a letter ( Court Settlement Claim) stating if I had an issue to bring it to a dealership and they would look at it. If it did have this issue the headlight company would pay for some repair. I didn’t go since my headlight issue didn’t start until later . When I contacted the dealership I was told that offer expired along with GM confirming this. It is extremely frustrating and scary to know other owners have the same complaints and GM doesn’t do any safety recalls. These 2 issues are a big safety issue and I pray it never causes an accident.

Condensation on both headlights

Over time the headlight casings have moisture inside. Also, the plastic covering to the headlights is no longer clear but is cloudy. Driving at night I am forced to put on the high beams to brighten up the road ahead of me. Memphis Cadillac dealership said there is a history of this problem. They will not work on the car because of this. Is there a recall? Please let me know. Thank you.

The headlights on my 2011 Cadillac SRX4 (62,000 miles and garage kept from new until 2 years ago) started to fail in 2022. The passenger side failed in 2022 and had to be replaced at an out of pocket cost of $1,536.98. The driver's side failed on 1/15/2024 and it had to be replaced at an out of pocket cost of $2,046.70. I understand that there was not a recall on this problem but rather a reimbursement program. I was told by the Dealer that that program ended in 2020. I don't understand how a vehicle manufacturer, who has admitted that there was a problem with the sealant on their headlight, can just stop reimbursing owners. The best part is the replacements that I paid $3,583.68 for, still have bad sealant, and will go again eventually. My safety and the safety of other is put at risk because there is no warning light or anything indicate to the driver that your headlight has failed. The problem has been reproduced over and over and the Dealer/GM/Cadillac all have acknowledged the problem exists. My vehicle was inspected by the Cadillac Dealer (Smail Buick, GMC, Cadillac) and that's when I was informed that the reimbursement from Cadillac has ended. Please advise if there is any way to force Cadillac to reimburse these costs.

I NEVER GOT A RECALL ON THE LIGHT REPAIR. HAS MOISTURE IN HEADLIGHT. YOU CAN NOT SEE AT NIGHT. LIGHTS ARE VERY LOW LIGHTING. IT IS A SAFETY RISK. GOING TO CHURCH AT NIGHT IS IMPOSSIBLE. YOU CANNOT SEE OUT AHEAD. TRYING TO WATCH FOR DEER. I GOT ONE LIGHT FIXED FEW YEARS AGO. I CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER. IS THERE A RECALL. THE PICTURE LOADED IS WHAT LIGHT LOOKS LIKE ON DRIVERS SIDE. I PRAY THEY STAND BEHIND THE LIGHT. THANK YOU FOR CARING

My lights have conditions and when it rains one of my lights do not come on until it is dry. I have replaced two bulbs since 2020. Now my steering wheel warning light came on, I had steering wheel fluid put in, and it's still hard to turn, and the warning light is still coming on with StabiliTrak warning light

Both headlights are filled with condensation which makes driving the car not too good at night getting concerned that they might go out at night due to a short or something cuz of the water

It is clear that it's a manufacturing problem with the seals for the headlights in this vehicle. There are many of the same complaints concerning visibility and water log inside the headlamps. I am having this same issue. Because of the water log inside of the headlamps, this could cause electrical damage. The seals in these headlamps aren't sealing correctly and water from rain is flooding the inside of my headlamps, especially the driver's side. A recall should be given for these faulty headlamps. 2011 Cadillac SRX - FWD

I have had my vehicle about a month I have a 2011 Cadillac SRX I have had it in the shop at least 3 weeks since I had it due to the headlights being out or damaged by water they have worked out about $6,000 on my vehicle to have the bulbs burner ballast and igniter replaced and replaced my passenger side lens but they did not replace the driver side and it accumulates a lot of water all the time if it's a pretty day it's still keeps water inside I think the cover needs to be replaced due to water getting into the headlight or any type of moisture I've been seeing that this is been an ongoing problem with these vehicles I feel like if I just bought the vehicle I should not be responsible for replacing the lens on the driver side because it is a safety issue and it's more dim than the other side I think these should be recalled

on Feb 24, 2020 Cadillac sent letters notifying owners of Cadilla 2010-2015 SRX that they will replace the headlamps or reimburse any out of pocket payments for headlamp replacement or service. I had headlamp bulb replaced and sent the invoice to GM for reimbursement I had to resubmit my claim with the proper invoice and information from the repair shop who tried replacing my head lamp bulbs. I did this within the time frame requested. Now they have informed me they have closed out the reimbursement and will not reiumburse me for the headlamp service i had done in april 2019 to try and improve my headlamps with replacement bulbs. I have emailed all this information and attached the bulb replacement invoice to cadillac begining in Oct 13,2022 and they still are aguing they will not reimburse me. They call me weekly, email me weekly, since 9/13/2022 to tell me nothing and they will not reimbuse me for a recall they initiated! They call me weekly to tell me this and emial me the same form letter

It’s one problem but it’s a big problem and for the life of me it seems as if I can’t get through to someone. My headlights are so dim that I can’t drive at night it’s already know that this is a manufacturer problem I know its known that it is. Listen I’m a disabled veteran on a fixed income I need help with this problem can you help me?

Headlights are leaking and allowing moisture to enter into the headlight assembly. In turn, this is causing headlights to rust and fail early. Additionally, they fail without warning, thus potentially leaving the driver in the dark. Very serious safety issue. Dealer contacted and stated they were, at one time, reimbursing car owners, however they are not doing so now. Cadillac states that since my car was purchased in Florida, they would have taken care of the issue, but they are no longer doing reimbursing customers for repairs needed to make the car safe to drive.

Rear brake lights remains on while moving and when the car is parked.

The head lights are so dim the suv can’t be driven at dark . Replaced bulbs and it was not any better

My headlights are so dim i cannot use my car at night. It started a while ago I have replaced the lights but they become dim and the moisture in the headlights is terrible it is so dangerous to drive my car at night i cannot move it once it is dark. I have searched and found that this is an ongoing issue not only in my 2011 model but all Cadillac and is a known issue that Cadillac refuses to take responsibility for. I received a letter during the high of COVID stating they would reimbursement if you had gotten it fixed but i got the letter in May and time to get the repair and the reimbursement had passed. live in NY and everything was shut down for quiet sometime so perhaps the letter was sent internationally at that time so i couldn't take advantage of the offer. My understanding is that it will be around $1600.00 to repair the headlights which i feel i should not have to bear after paying so much money for my car this is a manufacturer defect and they should bear the responsibility to correct and fix my car. I purchased my vehicle and paid 48K which wasn't cheap I should not have to pay additional out of pocket due to their poor workmanship and parts.

Headlight goes out after rain. Fogging and condensation can be seen, when headlight doesn't work. Takes several days to dry out and come on again. Headlight will cut off will driving if raining.

My headlight assembly have been taking in water for about a year. Last year I had to replace the ballast on one side. Last week we had a lot of rain and while driving home both of my headlights went out. I’ve looked up the problem online and found out I’m not alone. Cadillac did send me a notice last year about a settlement they made for similar issue but the notice they sent me stated it was for models with halogen bulbs. My vehicle has HID. I have called several dealerships and was told the part cost about $1400.00 each. I want to replace both sides. They say they don’t have both available. My guess is there’s a shortage because everyone has this problem. Cadillac should have been made responsible for selling this garbage. This is a safety and consumer problem. How can I drive my vehicle if I can’t even replace the part ?

The contact owns a 2011 Cadillac SRX. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH at night, the headlights were extremely dim, the contact was unable to see more than approximately 8-feet ahead of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but was diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 97,000.

Mileage: 97,000

The headlights, driver and passenger, repeatedly fill up with water/condensation and cause the light to short completely. This is dangerous for night time driving as it impairs visibility and is also illegal. When I asked a repairman about a replacement I was told that it’s useless as the replacement parts are made of the same components and I would pay thousands of dollars to eventually incur the same problem because it is a design flaw. There is no warning that the light is going to short. It just shorts but it usually is when the water has built up inside the light. If it rains or snows I’m guaranteed to get water in the lights and with large accumulations of precipitation is when it’s for sure shorting out from water/condensation buildup. I have had the lights short at least 4 times over the last two years.

UNKNOWN THE DIM HEADIGHTS AS WELL AS MOISTURE IN HEADLIGHTS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM . IT IS NOT SAFE DRIVING WITH THE HEADLIGHS ON DIM---YOU MUST DRIVE WITH THEM ON HIGH BEAM TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE FOR GM TO CORRECT THIS MOST DANGEROUS PROBLEM AS MANY ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP!!!11

The exterior housing units prematurely wear out and allow moisture to cause failures of the lights. The makes driving at night hard, because you can barely see. GM tried to give some customers a rebate, but this required owners to pay out of pocket at first for repairs, and this causes me an undue burden because I don't have that kind of money. This is very dangerous and GM should recall this.

In Sep 2021 I purchased this car. During the first drive after dark I noticed the headlights were very dim and the high beam only extended to just go just past the front of the car. these are the up-level HID lights. I didn't do anything right away as I rarely drive at night and then in well-lit areas. There is also considerable condensation inside primarily the passenger side light. On Oct 23,2021 I went to Caddilac of Bentonville, AR to inquire about an open recall on the rear end. They are ordering parts. While there I inquired about the headlights and asked if there was a recall on them. The answer was there is no recall established but that it is a known problem by Caddilac. Today, I started started an Internet search for more information and found 166 problems noted on Web Site carproblemzoo.com. Nearly all stated it as a serious safety issue. Some reported near accidents, lights burning out while driving, condensation inside, dimness, etc. Fortunately I haven't had an accident nor have they burnt out. However, I do consider the problem a very serious concern. I can drive into oncoming traffic with high beams on and get zero reaction from the oncoming drivers. Actually, dim as they are, the low beams provide better light. This obviously has been a long-time problem on this and other like vehicles. There are 160 complaints on carcomplaints.com including crash and injury. Caddilacsociety.com says customers have been promised reimbursement for expenses but apparently little to no response from GM or Caddilac. There has been at least one class action lawsuit.The Internet is full of these serious safety reports and it makes me wonder why NHTSA has not made Caddilac issue a recall to prolate these faulty lights.

The headlights get water inside and at times enough water to cause the headlight to fail. I have had both headlights fail as a result of this. Cadillac is aware of this design flaw and was only willing to reimburse customers who were able to pay for the replacement lights up front. This is not fair to people who have purchased Cadillacs who were not able to pay, especially considering that it is a design flaw. These cars are way too expensive to have such a flaw and for it to be as costly as it is.

The 2011srx the low beam is so bad you have to drive with the high beam at night there are a lot of complaints on this and nothing is being done other safety problem.please look into this problem hard to see road at night unless bright lights are on.

My headlight assemblies would get condensation and cause the bulb to become dim or burn out. Had to replace bulbs several times but still difficult to see 20 ft in front of me when driving the dark roads in north west New Jersey. Was told it was a known issue and to drill holes in the back of the headlight, which I did not do since I didn't want to damage the assemblies. The cost to replace both assemblies would have cost me at least $2000.00 or more which I did not have. I replaced the assemblies with aftermarket ones and had them installed by my mechanic. I than received the letter from Cadillac that they would reimburse us. I filled the paperwork and sent all the documentation. Never hear back for months so I followed up and was told I was missing the vin # on the receipts. I resubmitted the documents with the vin # and again waited. Made 2 more calls one said it was bring processed and should get a check in 90 days the second told me it was still being processed. Waited again for my check and still nothing 2 more phone calls and the second one has now said it was declined. When I ask to speak to a supervisor I was told there was no one there. I asked for a phone # to call someone and again was told there was no # to be given. I kept trying to speak to someone and finally the women told me she was done with our phone call and hung up on me. I don't know what or who to speak with to get this resolved. I am out $1000.00 for a know safety issue. If I hadn't replaced my headlight assemblies I would not be able to drive my car at night. Please contact me and assist in any way possible. Thank you for your time and consideration in helping me

MY CADILLAC 2011 HEADLIGHTS WHEN DIM. FIRST I CHANGED THE LIGHT BULBS THINKING THAT THAT WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM BUT IT DID NOT. I THEN TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALER TO CHECK TO SEE WHY THE LIGHT BULBS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY IN TURN TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT IN ORDER FIX THE DIM LIGHTS. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE LIGHTS GOING DIM ON THE CADILLAC SRX IS A FLAW IN THE SYSTEM.THIS IS AN UNSAFE CONDITION WHEREAS YOU WILL NEED TO DRIVE WITH YOUR HIGH BEAMS UNTIL THE LIGHT UNIT IS REPLACED AS YOU CAN BARELY SEE IN FRONT OF YOU.

I NOTICED ALL OF A SUDDEN I COULD NOT SEE THE ROAD, SWITCHED TO THE HIGH BEAM THAT'S FINE NOW BACK TO LOW BEAM IT'S LIKE I TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS,MY LIGHTS ARE ON BUT NOT BRIGHT AT ALL, DRIVING WITH HIGH BEAM MUCH AS POSSIBLE HWY & CITY.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE DIMMED TO THE POINT OF NOT FEELING SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

Mileage: 90,000

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS NO LONGER WORK, MAKING VISIBILITY POOR WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, SO LOW IT MAKES SEEING ANYTHING IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE DIFFICULT AND MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THEY WERE WORKING AND ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM MY OFFICE I NOTICED THEY WERE NO LONGER WORKING, IT WAS DARK IN FRONT OF THE CAR. I CHECKED THE LIGHTS, THEY WERE ON, HOWEVER, THE LOW BEAMS WERE NO LONGER OPERATING.

Mileage: 89,980

THE LOW BEAMS ON MY SUV WENT COMPLETELY OUT AS I WAS DRIVING EARLY ONE MORNING OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD! I NOTICED THAT IT WAS UNUSUALLY DARK AND THOUGHT THAT A STREET LIGHT WAS OUT, BUT I SOON DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS MY HEADLIGHTS THAT WERE NOT WORKING. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT OR BEFORE THE SUN COMES UP BECAUSE I HAVE NO LIGHTS. I CAN ONLY USE THE HIGH BEAMS. I NEED TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR WHEN IT'S DARK. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND THE GM SHOULD DO A RECALL TO REPAIR THIS DEFECT AT COST TO THE CONSUMER BECAUSE THEY ARE TOTALLY AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN FOR YEARS. THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE SEALANT AND IT'S ALLOWING MOISTURE TO GET INSIDE OF THE HEADLIGHTS CAUSING THE LIGHTS TO GO OUT.

Mileage: 99,000

I NOTICED THAT ONLY MY DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT WAS NOT WORKING. AFTER INVESTIGATING I LEARNED THAT THERE HAS BEEN 2 CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS FILED AND WON AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER IN FLORIDA AND CALIFORNIA. THIS IS DUE TO CONDENSATION CAUSING THE LOW BEAM LIGHT TO FAIL. I TOOK THE HEADLIGHTS OUT AND PUT THE BULB FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND IT WORKS. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPLAINTS FROM THE LAWSUITS. THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CAUSING HEADLIGHTS TO FAIL IN RAINY CONDITIONS. THAT IS THE WORST TIME FOR HEADLIGHTS TO FAIL. THERE ARE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE DONE.

Mileage: 92,000

HEAD LIGHTS ARE DIM AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING YOU CAN'T SEE VERY FAR AHEAD WHICH MAKES IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. YOU HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAM TO BE ABLE TO SEE. WE HAVE REPLACED THE LIGHTS AND IT'S NOT ANY DIFFERENT. IT'S SCARY DRIVING AT NIGHT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. I'M SURPRISED THERE AREN'T MORE ACCIDENTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES WERE FILLED WITH MOISTURE FROM THE RAIN.

HAVE HAD DANGEROUS LIGHTING LEVEL FROM LOW BEAM FOR LONG TIME. HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS WITH LED BUT NO SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT. REMOVE THE COVERS TO KEEP THE MOISTURE FROM BUILDING UP AND THEN REPLACE ON A REGULAR BASIS. SOMEONE WILL HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WITH THESE LIGHTS. WE DARE NOT USE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT.

MY 2011 CADILLAC SRX HAS HAD VERY POOR HEADLIGHTS SINCE I PURCHASED IT. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS WITH THE BRIGHTEST HALOGEN BULBS AVAILABLE WITH MINABLE IMPROVEMENT. I TRIED LED LIGHTS, THEY WERE TERRIBLE. WHAT RECOURSE DO WE HAVE ON THIS ISSUE. I SEE ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A ONGOING COMPLAINT WITH THIS MODEL OF CAR. PLEASE HELP!

THE OEM HEADLIGHTS ARE A DRIVING HAZARD, EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE. THERE ARE SEVERAL POSTS ON-LINE, DESCRIBING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE SEALS OF THE HEADLIGHTS ALLOW MOISTURE INTO THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. THIS CAUSES BULBS, HARNESSES, AND DIODES TO BURN UP. I DESCRIBED THE INCIDENT TO CADILLAC, THEY REALLY DON'T HAVE A RESPONSIBLE RESPONSE.

GENERAL MOTORS HAVE AGREED THEY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ISSUES OF MOISTURE ACCUMULATING IN THEIR HEADLIGHT CAPSULES ON 2010-2015 SRX'S. GM HAS AGREED ONLY TO REIMBURSE CUSTOMERS IN CA AND FL DUE TO SUITS BROUGHT AGAINST THEM BY THESE 2 STATES. I CALLED GM AND WAS ADVISED MY VIN # WAS NOT ON THE REIMBURSEMENT LIST BECAUSE IT WAS MADE IN CA OR FL. I HAVE PAID A TOTAL OF $2030.22 TO HAVE MY HEADLIGHTS REPAIRED FROM MOISTURE. THE FIRST ONE WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, SO ONLY HAD TO PAY $473.22 ON 10/07/15. THE SECOND ONE WAS REPLACE 8/4/2017 FOR $1,557.00. *JS

I AM WRITING REGARDING MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT. THE LIGHT CAN ON ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. I HAD IT CHECK OUT BY AUTOZONE AND O'RELLIES AUTO STORM. I WAS INFORMED THE IT WAS THE PASSENGER SEAT PRESSURE SENSOR AND IT HAVE A RECALL ON IT. SO WHEN I CALL THE CADILLAC PLACE THEY TELL ME THAT I HAVE NO RECALLS AT THIS TIME. SO HOW DO TWO PLACES TELL ME I HAVE A RECALL BUT CADILLAC SAYS I DON'T. I REALLY NEED THIS SITUATION CLEARED . I DRIVES MY ELDERLY PARENTS AROUND AND I NEEDS MY CAR TO BE SAFE FOR ME AS WELL AS FOR MY PARENTS. PLEASE HELP. I'M HAVING TO MANY ISSUES WITH CADILLAC. MY HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR MY CAR CAUSED BY CONDENSE IN MY PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. THAT'S BEEN OUT FOR ABOUT A YEAR. SO YES I'M HAVING A BAD TIME WITH MY CAR. DON'T GET ME WRONG I LOVE MY CAR THIS IS WHY I'M TRYING TO FIND HELP AS WELL AS ANSWER REGARDING MY VEHICLE. IF YOU CAN CONTACT ME AT [XXX]. I WOULD REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

HID HEADLIGHTS KEEP FILLING WITH CONDENSATION AND BURNING OUT. DEALER WANTS OVER $1800 TO FIX...FOR HEADLIGHTS!

DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT CONTAINS MOISTURE WHICH SHORTS OUT THE BALLAST AND IGNITOR AND BLOWS THE HID HEADLIGHT. THERE IS NOT A PROPER SEAL ON HEADLIGHT AND CADILLAC KNOWS THIS.THEY HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN FLORIDA, CALIFORNIA! IN WISCONSIN THE SAME ISSUE WITH MOISTURE. I HAVE REPLACED BOTH SIDES 7 TIMES. THE CAR DEALER REFUSED TO FIX. THE CADILLAC DEALER ALSO WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM EITHER. AT ANY MOMENT THEY JUST STOP WORKING WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT NIGHT. THIS CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE ONCOMING TRAFFIC CAN'T SEE YOU. A SAFETY ISSUE. LET ALONE RAIN, FOG AND SNOW DRIVING ARE ISSUES IF THEY JUST CAN GO OUT BECAUSE THEY ARE FAULTY.

Mileage: 90,000

BOUGHT THE 2011 SRX IN 2018. IMMEDIATELY HAD TO HAVE THE ENTIRE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACED BECAUSE OF MOISTURE INTRUSION. NOW 6 MONTHS LATER THE SAME PROBLEM HAS APPEARED IN THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT. VISIBILITY AT NIGHT IS BADLY COMPROMISED. REPAIR IS VERY COSTLY.

WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH LIGHTS ON DIM YOU CAN BARELY SEE ANYTHING. IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO SEE ANYTHING LIGHTS MUST BE ON BRIGHT, IF MEETING ANOTHER DRIVER THIS MAKES FOR A POSSIBLE HOSTILE INTERACTION AS THE APPROACHING DRIVER IS BLINDED BY THE BRIGHTNESS OF LIGHTS. I TOOK MY CAR TO SHOP ONLY TO BE INFORMED IT IS A DEFECT WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE STARTING WITH 2010 MODELS. I WAS TOLD THE PRICE STARTS AT AROUND $1000.00 FOR A REPLACEMENT CLIP WITH THE PROBABILITY THAT LIGHTS WILL DO SAME THING😯. LIGHTS ARE NOT BLOWN BUT INSTEAD IT IS A DEFECT OF MANUFACTURER. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. NIGHT DRIVING IS A MUST FOR SOME OF US AND THE FEELING OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE VERY WELL WITH LIGHTS ON DIM OR MAKING OTHER DRIVERS MAD AND POSSIBLY RESULTING IN AN ACT OF ROAD RAGE MAKES US FEEL VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE BEEN A CADILLAC DRIVER ALL MY LIFE AND FEEL THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE . WE SHOULD NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR TRYING TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IN ALL HONESTY IS NOT OUR FAULT AND WILL ONLY RESULT IN SPENDING MONEY THAT IS ONLY GOING TOWARD A TEMPORARY FIX STILL.

I HAD THIS DIAGNOSED AT A CERTIFIED CADILLAC DEALERSHIP AND THE PROBLEM IS FAULTY SEALS ON THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY HOUSING. IT WILL COST 2959.90 TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED, HOWEVER IN READING ON LINE, THE REPLACEMENTS AREN'T ANY BETTER THAN WHAT I HAVE ON IT RIGHT NOW.

IN AUGUST 2018, I PURCHASED THIS 2011 CADILLAC SRX. AFTER DIVING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT I NOTICED HOW DIM THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE. IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE ON UNLIT ROADS AND VERY DANGEROUS AS OTHER DRIVERS HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME SEEING ME AS WELL. I RESORTED TO USING MY HI-BEAMS. AFTER THESE INCIDENTS I INSPECTED THE HEADLIGHTS AND FOUND THAT BOTH LIGHTS HAVE ACCUMULATED CONDENSATION IN THE INTERIOR. I CONSULTED THE OWNERS MANUAL WHICH HONESTLY DIDN'T HELP MUCH. I HAVE SINCE RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM ON LINE TO FIND THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM SINCE 2010. AS A MAKER OF LUXURY VEHICLES CADILLAC SHOULD CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM.

THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY SEAL IS VERY WEAK AND SHORTS OUT THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT. ITS $1500+ TO REPLACE AND IT APPEARS THAT GM IS JUST GOING TO IGNORE THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR THAT I AM STILL PAYING FOR HAS TO STAY PARKED BECAUSE I CANT AFFORD TO FIX THIS HEADLIGHT.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS, ILLUMINATE AT DANGEROUSLY LOW LEVELS. IT MAKES IT VERY HARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT MAKING VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. TO SEE AT NIGHT, I OFTEN HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON, WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC.

Mileage: 120,000

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, AFTER REPLACING BOTH BULBS. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ACCUMULATING MOISTURE AND NOW HAVE WENT COMPLETELY OUT. THIS IS A PROBLEM WELL KNOWN WITH THIS VEHICLE

Mileage: 108,000

BOTH HEADLIGHTS ARE DIM EVEN AFTER PUTTING NEW HEADLIGHT BULBS IN. ONE HEADLIGHT HAS ALSO ACCUMULATED MOISTURE FROM THE WEATHER WHICH HAS CAUSED A YELLOW TINT WHICH ALSO DIMS THE LIGHTING. I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS TO SEE TURNS WHICH IS DANGEROUS FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS. THE FACT THAT I PUT NEW BULBS IN AND STILL CAN'T SEE WHEN I'M DRIVING IS A HUGE PROBLEM AND I FEAR AN ACCIDENT COULD HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THIS FAULT.

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS MOISTURE PROBLEM CAUSING HEADLIGHTS TO FAIL. DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH DIM OR FAILED HEADLIGHTS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND WILL CAUSE ACCIDENTS AND LIKELY DEATHS. CANNOT SEE ROADWAY, ONCOMING CARS OR PEDESTRIANS DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT REPLACEMENT PARTS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

Mileage: 120,000

TAKATA RECALL- MY DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT WENT OUT. I WENT TO HAVE IT FIXED AND THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE BAULLIST. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 10 DAYS THE LIGHT WENT OUT AGAIN. UPON RETURNING TO THE MECHANIC AND SOME INVESTIGATION I FOUND THAT THIS IS AN UNRESOLVED PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF CADILLACS. THE MANUFACTURER IS AUTOMATICALLY WANTING THE CONSUMER TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY 1,300 DOLLARS. MOST PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THAT LYING AROUND! IT BECOMES A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE EXPENSE IS KEEPING OWNERS FROM IMMEDIATELY REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PART CONSEQUENTLY CAUSING PEOPLE TO DRIVE WITHOUT THE PROPER LIGHTING. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS. I AM HAPPY TO PROVIDE ANY NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION AS WELL AS SPEAK TO ANYONE REGARDING THIS. THIS IS AN UNFAIR PRACTICE FROM CADILLAC AND WILL ULTIMATELY COST THEM BUSINESS. IT COULD EVEN COST PEOPLE THEIR LIVES.

THE HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING WHEN I WAS DRIVING DURING THE EVENING RUSH HOUR. LIGHTS WORKED WHEN I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF THROUGH THE LIGHTING SAFETY DELAY SO I KNOW THE HEADLIGHTS ARE OKAY. THERE IS SO MUCH MOISTURE INSIDE THE HEADLIGHT LENS THAT I'M SURE THIS IS A MOISTURE PROBLEM. THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF JUNK AND GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR NOT PROVIDING OWNERS RELIEF ESPECIALLY WHEN THESE CARS COST SO MUCH. CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS JUST ONE OF MANY ISSUES WITH THIS CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH AT NIGHT, THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS FAILED TO EFFECTIVELY ILLUMINATE THE ROAD. UPON ENGAGING THE HIGH BEAM HEADLAMPS, THE CONTACT NOTICED A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN THE QUALITY OF LIGHTING WITHOUT THE HIGH BEAM HEADLAMPS. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VISIBILITY OF THE DRIVER WAS IMPAIRED WHEN THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE ENGAGED. A DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,000.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO SOON THEY ARE UNSAFE, IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITHOUT LIGHTS. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I ESCALATED THE ISSUE TO CADILLAC CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HAVE BEEN GETTING NO ANSWER ABOUT WHAT TO DO FOR OVER TWO WEEKS. IT'S SCARY AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT SO I DON'T.

EXTREME CONDENSATION AND WATER INTRUSION OF DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY RESULTED IN HEADLAMP FAILURE. MINOR CONDENSATION AND WATER INTRUSION OF PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY, BUT FUNCTIONING. NO WARNING OF HEADLIGHT BULB FAILURE ON INTERIOR INSTRUMENT PANEL. DISCOVERED WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AFTER DARK. VERY POOR ROAD ILLUMINATION WITH ONLY ONE FUNCTIONING HEADLIGHT. NEEDED TO AVOID NIGHTTIME TRAVEL UNTIL REPAIRED. AFTER READING COMPLAINTS ON NHTSA WEBSITE AND OTHER CADILLAC FORUMS, I PURCHASED A OEM HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AT OUT OF TOWN CADILLAC DEALERSHIP FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE ASSEMBLY, AND HAD IT INSTALLED AT LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP.

GM HEADLIGHT COMPLAINT: MY HEADLIGHTS STARTED CLOUDING A COUPLE YEARS AGO, FOLLOWED BY VISIBLE CONDENSATION INSIDE THE HEADLAMP HOUSING. I HAVE NOTICED SIGNIFICANT DIMMING TO THE POINT I NEED TO DRIVE WITH MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ILLUMINATED TO SAFELY SEE - THEY ARE SO DIM THAT NOBODY CAN TELL THE BRIGHTS ARE ON! I WAS TOLD BY LOCAL CADILLAC DEALER THAT THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT HOUSING MUST BE REPLACED BECAUSE NOT ONLY IS THERE CONDENSATION, IT HAS CAUSED THE "REFLECTIVE SILVER" INSIDE THE HOUSING TO DULL WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW PROPER OR SAFE REFLECTION OF THE HEADLAMP. I WAS ADVISED "SORRY, THIS IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY" AND BECAUSE THE ENTIRE THING NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS IT IS ONE WHO PIECE, IT WILL COST APPROXIMATELY $1400 FOR PARTS - NOT INCLUDING LABOR. HOW CAN A 7 YEAR OLD VEHICLE HAVE HEADLIGHT CASING FAILURE AND "DULLING OF REFLECTIVE SILVER UNLESS THE HEADLAMP AND HEADLAMP HOUSING IS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE FROM THE MANUFACTURER? I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE HEADLAMPS THAT CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT REQUIRE REPLACEMENT ON A 7 YEAR OLD VEHICLE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL!

Mileage: 75,000

MY 2011 CADILLAC SRX WITH DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS ON DIM SETTING. THE VISIBILITY IS VERY VERY POOR AND UNSAFE TO THE POINT OF WHERE I CAN'T DRIVE AT NITE. I REPLACED THE BULBS WITH THE MOST EXPENSIVE BULBS THAT I COULD BUY AND DID NOT HELP AT ALL. I FEEL THAT THIS IS UNSAFE FOR MY FAMILY AND I TO BE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I CAN'T DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON AT NIGHT BLINDING PEOPLE OR GETTING PULLED OVER BY POLICE. THE ONLY OPTION AT THE DEALER IS TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WITH THE EXACT SAME HEADLIGHTS THAT I HAVE NOW AND HAVING TO PAY FOR ANOTHER DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT IS RIDICULOUS. THE VEHICLE HAS PROJECTION HEADLIGHT FOR LOW BEAMS. PROJECTION TYPE IS WAY OUT DATED AND WHY WOULD CADILLAC USE THAT KIND OF HEADLIGHT. I FOUND OUT THE THE FIRST NITE I DROVE IT I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF HITTING A PERSON ON A BICYCLE. IF MY SON HADN'T BEEN WITH ME I WOULD HAVE NEVER SEEN THE PERSON. THIS IS DEFINITELY A GM SCREW-UP AND THEY SHOULD MAKE IT RIGHT FOR THE CONSUMERS AND BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED WHICH I ALMOST EXPERIENCE WITH PERSON ON BICYCLE. I SHOULD NOT BE LIMITED TO ONLY DRIVING MY CAR IN THE DAYLIGHT HRS. THIS IS VERY STRESSFUL WHEN YOU HAVE SCHOOL ACTIVITIES IN THE EVENING HOURS AND TRYING TO HURRY TO GET HOME BEFORE IT GETS DARK. IT TAKES ME ALMOST 2 HRS TO GET TO MY MOTHER'S AND NOW I CAN'T EVEN DRIVE AND SPEND TIME WITH HER BECAUSE OF THESE DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS. I HOPE GM FIXES THIS PROBLEM AND I HOPE THEY UNDERSTAND THE SEVERITY OF THIS. GOD FORBID IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN TO ME OR MY FAMILY I HOPE THAT MY FAMILY OR I WOULD MAKE SURE GM WAS HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS. IT REALLY DISGUST ME BOUT CADILLAC NOW. CADILLAC WAS SUPPOSE TO A LUXURY CAR BUT NOW I AM LIMITED ON WHEN I CAN DRIVE IT.

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO BAD DRIVE CAN NOT SEE UNLESS HIGH BEAMS ARE ON. ONCOMING DRIVERS CAN NOT SEE THE AUTO AT NIGHT. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED BEFORE OR DURING THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

I PURCHASED MY 2011 CADILLAC SRX ON FEB. 3, 2018 AND SINCE HAVE HAD TO REPLACED THE ENTIRE HEADLAMPS ASSEMBLY 3 YES 3 TIMES WITHIN ONE MONTH OF HAVING THIS CAR. ALSO HAD TO REPLACE BACK DRIVERS SIDE HUB BECAUSE THE STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON AFTER HAVING IT ONLY 2 WEEKS. CAN NOT SEEING DRIVING AT NIGHT AND GM NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THESE LIGHTS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED BECAUSE OF IT!!!!

Mileage: 121,000

HEADLIGHT ON LOW BEAMS ARE ALMOST WORTHLESS. BOTH HEADLIGHTS HAVE FILLED WITH MOISTURE OVER THE LAST YEAR COMPOUNDING THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A "PREMIUM" AUTOMOBILE THEN THEY SHOULD TREAT THEM AS SUCH AND REPAIR THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CADILLAC SRX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, BOTH FRONT HEADLIGHTS WERE DIMLY LIT, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AND TRAFFIC AHEAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHEVROLET OF TURNERSVILLE (3400 NJ-42, TURNERSVILLE, NJ 08012, (856) 516-6100) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

Mileage: 7,000

MY 2011 SRX NEEDS TO HAVE THE FRONT PASSENGER HEADLIGHTS REPLACED DUE TO WATER IN IT COMPLETELY OUT AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE AS WELL IS HAVING CONDENSATION AND WATER LEAKING. SO I NOW HAVE TO HAVE TWO HEADLIGHTS REPLACED. HEADLIGHT OUTAGE WAS NOTICED DRIVING HOME ON HIGHWAY AND NOTICED CAR IS NOT LIGHTING UP THE HIGHWAY PROPERLY.

Mileage: 100,000

HEADLAMPS HAVE BECOME SO DIM THEY ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND THE ONLY WAY TO DRIVE AT NIGHT IS WITH HIGH BEAMS WHICH IS ALSO NOT SAFE FOR OTHER MOTORIST. I DO NOT SEE ANY MOISTURE IN EITHER HEADLAMP AS OTHERS HAVE STATED. IN READING THE OTHER NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS THIS IS A SITUATION THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR A FAULTY AND DANGEROUS PRODUCT.

Mileage: 55,000

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE PROVIDES NO ILLUMINATION WHEN SET ON DIM. WE HAVE TO DRIVE WITH OUR BRIGHTS ALL THE TIME. ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT SEE WHEN USING THE DIM SETTING. IT IS FRIGHTENING.. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF VEHICLE IS MOVING OR SITTING STILL...USING THE DIM HEADLIGHTS PROVIDE THE SAME ILLUMINATION AS NOT USING ANY LIGHTS AT ALL.

Mileage: 83,000

EXTREME MOISTURE BUILDUP IN BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES CAUSING DECREASED NIGHTTIME VISIBILITY AND ADDITIONALLY CAUSING BULBS TO BLOW OUT. PURCHASED 2011 SRX USED IN 2017 WITH 63,000 MILES, NOT AWARE OF THE DEFECT AT THAT TIME. A LIMITED WARRANTY WAS ALSO PURCHASED FOR AN ADDITIONAL $2700 BUT WAS INFORMED AFTER ASKING THE DEALERSHIP TO INVESTIGATE THAT DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT COVERED. QUOTED ALMOST $5,000 TO REPLACE BOTH. THIS IS HIGHLY UNSAFE AS WELL AS UNFAIR TO THE PUBLIC, NOT ONLY THE RISK OF FAILURE POTENTIALLY CAUSING BODILY HARM BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL $5,000, NOT INCLUDING THE WARRANTY PURCHASED, TO REPAIR A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.

Mileage: 64,500

11-21-17 AFTER DRIVING IN THE DARKNESS OF WINTER NOW I HAVE NOTICED MY HEADLIGHTS BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT ARE VERY DIM AND HAR TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. MY BRIGHT LIGHTS WORK WELL AND I USE THEM WHEN NO OTHER CARS ARE COMING HEAD ON. I THOUGHT IS WAS MY EYESIGHT BUT STARTED TO INVESTIGATE AND SAW HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE. HAVE NOT SEEN ANY RECALL NOTICES FOR THIS DANGEROUS HEADLIGHT FAULT. AUTO HEADLIGHTS ARE DIM WHEN DRIVING.

Mileage: 95,000

I HAVE A 2011 SRX THAT HAS 78,000 MILES ON IT. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT SEALED PROPERLY AND WATER LEAKS INTO THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY. THE WATER HAS CAUSED THE HEADLIGHTS TO BE SO DIM THAT I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITH FLASHLIGHTS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY WANTED $1400 FOR NEW LIGHTS. I CALLED GM TO SEE IF THEY WOULD ASSIST WITH THIS OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR NEW HEADLIGHTS AND THEY REFUSED ANY ASSISTANCE. THE SAID THIS WAS A NORMAL MAINTENANCE ITEM. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 40 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD MY HEADLIGHTS LEAK AND HAVE MOISTURE IN THEM, SO I DISAGREE THAT IT IS A NORMAL MAINTENANCE ITEM. WHEN I BALKED AT THE $1400 QUOTE, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALER SUGGESTED THAT THEY COULD DRILL HOLES IN THE OUTER COVER AND DO A RESTORATION CLEANUP OF THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I PAID $418 FOR THEM TO DO THAT. JUST PICKED IT UP AND THERE IS STILL WATER IN BOTH LIGHTS.

Mileage: 78,500

DRIVING LIGHTS WENT DULL. THE LENSE AND REFLECTOR TURNED YELLOW. WE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH LIGHTS.

Mileage: 35,000

CONSTANT MOISTURE IN THE HEADLAMPS CAUSE SERIOUS VISION ISSUES WHEN LIGHTS ARE ON DIM. LIGHTING IS OBSTRUCTED AND VISUAL OF THE ROAD IS SERIOUSLY IMPAIRED. THE DIM LIGHTS ARE NOT FUNCTIONAL WITH CONSISTENT MOISTURE. THERE IS A CURRENT LAWSUIT INVOLVING OTHER GM VEHICLES FOR THIS VERY REASON. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED.

WATER IS GETTING INTO THE HEAD LIGHTS ON BOTH SIDES OF MY CAR

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE BOTH FULL OF MOISTURE AND THEY KEEP SHORTING OUT AND DON'T WORK ALLO THE TIME.I CALLED CADILLAZC DEALER AND THEY WANT $4500.00 TO REPLACE THEM.I CAN N OT GET AFTER MARKET HEADLIGHTS.THEY HAVE MOTORS IN THEM WHICH MOVE WHEN CAR TURNS.I HEARD THAT THERE IS A DEFECT IN IN THEM AN D GM HAS NOT SAID ANYTHING ABOUT IT .NOT SURE IF THIS IS GTRUE OR NOT BUT I CAN'T SEE THE PRICE TO REPLACE THEM AND IM DISABLED ,RETIRFED AND SOUN DS LIKE THE PRICE IS OUT OF THIS WORLD AND FEEL LIKE THEY ARE PRICE GOUGING!!!! TOOK THEM APART AN D DRIED THEM OUT BUT MOISTURE CAME RIGHT BACK IN BOTH HEADLIGHTS AGAIN.CAN NOT SEE ANY DEFECTS IN LIGHTS BUT MOISTURE IS STILL GETTING IN AND CAUSING LIGHTS NOT TO WORK.BEEN DRIVING AROUND WITH FOG LIGHTS BUT I NO THIS IS NOT SAFE AND SOMETHING IS WRONG FOR BOTH LIGHTS TO FILL UP WITH MOISTURE.CADILLAC DEALER (HILL CADILLAC IN NEWTOWN SQUARE PA SAID THEY ARE NOT COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY AND CAR ONLY HAS 50,000 PLUS MILES ON IT AND HEADLIGHTS FILL UP WITH MOISTURE AND SHORT OUT.THE PRICE TO REPLACE THEM IS OUTRAGIOUS AND HEARD THAT STILL MIGHT NOT CORRECT IT????

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY I HAD A HARD TIME TO SEE THE HIGHWAY & THE PANEL ON MY DASH CAME ON SAYING MY RIGHT LOW BEAM LAMP NEEDED TO BE CHECKED. I DROVE HOME VERY CAREFULLY & PARKED MY CAR. THE NEXT DAY J BROUGHT MY CAR TO SEE ABOUT GETTING THE LAMP FIXED & THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A WHOLE NEW LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I'VE READ IN THE INTERNET THAT HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM IN THEIR CADILLAC SRX 2011. I THINK IF THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL IN THIS MAKE & MODEL CAR. IT WILL COST OVER $1400 TO FIX IT. THEY SAID THERE IS CONDENSATION/WATER WHICH CAUSED IT TO GO OUT ITS. IT SEALED CORRECTLY

I WAS INFORMED BY PHONE THAT MY HEADLIGHT WAS OUT ON THE DRIVER SIDE, NEWS TO ME. THIS CAR HAS A CATASTROPHIC DEFECT IN THE HEADLAMPS AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE TO EXPERIENCE IT. THERE ARE NUMEROUSREPORTS OF THIS ISSUE ONLINE, WHERE CONDENSATION BUILDS IN HEADLAMP AND CAUSES FAILURE. AM I NOT SUPPOSE TO DRIVE MY LUXURY VEHICLE IN THE RAIN OR TAKE IT TO THE CAR WASH? I FIRST EXPERIENCED THIS ON MY PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT IN LATE 2015, LIGHT FAILED WHILE DRIVING AND THE WHOLE HEADLAMP HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOW A YEAR LATER WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE DRIVER SIDE. I ASSUME THIS WILL FALL ON DEAF EARS AS NO ONE WANTS TO DO ANYTHING TO ASSIST WITH THIS ISSUE FROM DEALERS TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE. 1300.00 FORA NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR SECOND TIME ON A CAR 6 YEARS OLD, UNHEARD OF ! I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL VEHICLES AT THE AGE OF 46, AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO HAVE 1 LET ALONE 2 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S REPLACED.

SUV LOW BEAM LIGHTS DON'T ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY. DRIVING FROM FLORIDA TO MARYLAND, I WAS UNABLE TO SEE THE ROADWAY MARKINGS UNLESS THEY HAD REFLECTIVE STRIPS.

VEHICLE HEADLAMPS WENT OUT TOTALLY WITHIN 2 DAYS AFTER MOISTURE AND CONDENSATION APPEARED BEHIND PROTECTIVE CLEAR SEALED COVERS. LEFT SIDE WENT OUT WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, RIGHT SIDE WAS OUT WHEN I ARRIVED FOR SERVICE THE NEXT DAY. I WAS CHARGED $1354.47 BY CADILLAC TO REPLACE ALL COMPONENTS ON EACH SIDE, INCLUDING NEW CLEAR COVERS AND SEALS. I CHECKED ONLINE AND THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. WHEN I PICKED MY VEHICLE UP FROM CADILLAC DEALERSHIP, THERE WERE SEVERAL CADILLACS LINED UP, ALL WITH MOISTURE BEHIND THE CLEAR LENS COVERS. I COULD NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE AT NIGHT UNTIL THIS REPAIR WAS COMPLETED.

FRONT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES ARE DEFECTIVE AND ALLOW CONDENSATION TO BUILD UP BEHIND LENS CAUSING HEADLIGHTS TO BE LESS EFFECTIVE AND EVENTUALLY SHORT OUT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THIS CONDITION HAS OCCURRED TWICE (ON BOTH FRONT PASSENGER AND DRIVERS SIDE) SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN 2014, MOST RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THESE DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, VIA A RECALL, BY CADILLAC ASAP.

I WAS DRIVING ON EAST BOUND ON M50 AT NIGHT AND I CAME TO THE LIGHTS OF CHRISTMAS DISPLAY AT HIDDEN LAKE GARDENS A PART OF MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY. AS I APPROACHED HIDDEN LAKE GARDENS I TURNED LEFT INTO THE DRIVEWAY TO DISCOVER THAT I HAD DRIVEN INTO THE EXIT INSTEAD OF THE ENTRANCE A FEW FEET DOWN THE ROAD. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT, JUST A FEW WORDS FROM THOSE EXITING AS TO MY STUPIDITY, WHICH WAS REALLY A FAULT OF THE POOR ILLUMINATION OF MY HEADLIGHTS ON MY CADILLAC. THIS CAR HAS THE POOREST QUALITY LOW BEAMS OF ANY CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED IN THE LAST 40 YEARS I COULD NOT USE MY HIGH BEAMS AS I HAD TRAFFIC COMING AT ME. CADILLAC MAINTAINS THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE GOOD, BUT THE FACT IS THEY ARE INFERIOR, THEY KNOW IT AND WILL NOT SPEND THE MONEY TO CORRECT IT. I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THE FRONT OF THE CAR TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS. IN ADDITION AS YOU LOOK AT THE CAR, YOU WOULD THINK THAT IT HAS THE "HID" LAMPS IN IT AS THEY MADE IT APPEAR THAT IT HAS. THE FACT IS IT HAS A FILAMENT LIGHT BULB THAT HAS VERY LITTLE POWER. I WOULD LIKE YOU TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM FROM EXPERTS IN THE LIGHTING INDUSTRY AND FORCE CADILLAC TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. ONLY TWO MODELS ARE AFFECTED THE "BASE" AND THE "LUXURY" THE "PERFORMANCE" AND "PREMIUM" MODEL OF THE SAME CAR HAVE THE XENON "HID" HEADLIGHTS WHICH ARE VERY POWERFUL.. *TR
