2013 CADILLAC SRX Power Train Problems

Two incidents of the same failure, although a few years apart. Vehicle placed in "Park" (foot on the brake, which is necessary in order to shift into P); when brake pedal released, vehicle suddenly revs and lurches forward. First time, in garage, and so minor damage except to items in garage; second time 3/7/2025, totaled this vehicle plus major damage to another vehicle.

When I park car in PARK...IT SAYS SHIFT TO PARK and I must wiggle gear shifter to get it correctly in PARK OR IT ROLLS IF NOT..THIS SAFETY ISSUE HAPPENS EACH TIME I DRIVE MY CADILLAC SRX.

2013 SRX recently purchased 11/2021 all recalls performed after trying to accelerate display goes black dials bottom out I hear engine revving up but no acceleration, could have been rear ended, dealer replaced rear diff clutch control module, LR upper control link, both front lower control arms, now I am experiencing a bump hard shift

I called on August 25 to get my Cadillac serviced at the Luxury Automall in Sioux Falls, SD. I had been experiencing toe link issues (service stabilitrak error message and jerking and swaying from the back end). I was bounced around from operators at the dealership before being told I wouldn’t be able to be seen until Sept. 14th (20 days later) and that I should stop driving the vehicle. I work over 50 miles away from my office and told the person I spoke to that it wasn’t an option for me to stop driving the vehicle because I need my source of income to support myself. I also informed them that I don’t have any other form of transportation and asked if I could get a loaner vehicle until they could check out my vehicle. I was told they wouldn’t be able to provide me a loaner vehicle until my vehicle was inspected and deemed unsafe to operate. So I continued driving my vehicle. I’ve probably put close to 2000 miles on my vehicle since the phone call with Cadillac. Needless to say my transmission went out Friday at a very low mileage. Cadillac is refusing to help me and I feel like I wouldn’t need an entire new transmission had the Cadillac dealer not made me wait nearly 3 weeks to be seen. My toe link is also busted. Now I’m looking at spending $5500 on a vehicle I can’t even drive due to Cadillacs negligence plus I’m now on the hook for a rental vehicle while I’m still making payments on the Cadillac I cannot even drive. How do you expect people to survive when I’m getting quoted over $1800 for 4 weeks of a rental car while I wait for my vehicle to get fixed - most places cannot get a transmission for 3-4 weeks. I’m being quoted $7000 (which is more than I make in 2 months) because Cadillac blew me off had they checked my vehicle before the transmission went out they may have prevented me from needing a new transmission. They knowingly let me drive an unsafe vehicle with no regards to my safety.

VEHICLE HAS A RECALL ID. RECALL 21V473. ADVISED BY DEALER FOR CADILLAC NOT TO DRIVE OR OPERATE VEHICHLE, HOWEVER GM DOES NOT HAVE PARTS TO CORRECT RECALL AND AS A CONSUMER AND ONLY TRANSPORTATION IT IS A BURDEN FOR ME . I ALSO HAVE A LOAN ON THIS VEHICLE THAT IS CURRENT IN PAYMENTS AND MUST MAKE FUTURE PAYMENTS ON A VEHICLE THAT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I FEEL GM. NEEDS TO GET THIS VEHICLE REPAIRED ASAP. OR PURCHASE BACK ATR THE COST OF MY LOAN. VERY UPSET AND ANGRY THERE IS AT THIS TIME NO RESOLUTION BY GM AND NO PARTS AVAILABLE .

ONCE IN AWHILE, WHILE DRIVING THE SRX, IT HESITANT SHIFTING CAUSING RPM TO REV HIGHER THAN USUAL. WHEN SLOWING DOWN, ONCE IN AWHILE YOU FEEL A KICK. ALSO I HEAR A SLIGHT WHINING NOISE WHEN DRIVING. STEERING WHEEL TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT OR TO THE RIGHT, STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT TURN BACK WHEN GOING FORWARD NOR REVERSE, IT STAYS TURNED.

WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IN NOVEMBER OF 2016 AND DROVE IT OFF THE LOT I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. TWO VEHICLES HAVE ALMOST HIT ME DUE TO THE LAG IN ACCERLATION. I'VE SPOKEN WITH MY DEALERSHIP SEVERAL OF TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY DO NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON MY SUV AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS FIXED BUT I CAN'T FIND ANY SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS STATING IT WAS FIXED PROPERLY. I CURRENTLY GO THROUGH 13 MILES PER GALLON WHICH IS NOT NORMAL.

I PURCHASED A 2013 SRX USED IN JANUARY OF 2017 AND ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TODAY BEING THE LATEST, AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT 4-WAY INTERSECTIONS, WHEN I TRY TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND MOVE INTO THE INTERSECTION THE CAR COASTS WITHOUT POWER AND LEAVES ME STRANDED FOR A FEW SECONDS. WITH THE GAS PEDAL PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN BOLTS FORWARD CAUSING THE VEHICLE "PEEL OUT". BEING STRANDED IN THE INTERSECTION IS SCARY AND I AM AFRAID I WILL BE HIT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, BUT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ON A CONSISTENT BASIS FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. I SEE ON THE INTERNET SEVERAL OTHER CONCERNS THAT SOUND VERY SIMILAR TO THIS.

TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY ERRATICALLY WHEN ACCELERATING. VEHICLE WAS RECALLED THIS YEAR FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT THE FIX FAILED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER IS TELLING ME THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR AN ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION. THIS IS INSULTING AS MY LAST VEHICLES HAD THIS AND DID NOT SHIFT LIKE THE SRX.
