The contact owns a 2017 cadillac xts. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the human machine interface module malfunctioned causing the back up camera not to display while the vehicle was in reverse. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer findlay cadillac located at 993 auto show dr, henderson, nv 89014 who diagnosed that the human machine interface module was faulty and needed to be replaced. The module was replaced and the failure was remedied. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 70,000.*dtconsumer stated same failure happened in 2013 cadillac xts.
Problem #1 - trunk opens by itself (sometimes while vehicle is stationary & locked (i.e., parked for the night - engine off); other times the trunk opens by itself while i am driving/moving (engine obviously on); other times while the engine is on and the vehicle is stationary (i.e., vehicle is at idle). I know for a fact that these episodes occurred without me pressing the trunk button - whether it be the inside/door trunk button; key fob trunk vutton; or the trunk release on the trunk itself.it is a safety hazard to have the trunk suddenly open while driving at 70 mph or while driving at 35 mph (can happen at any speed, including 0 [zero]).it is a security matter as when parked and the trunk opens by itself, it leaves me vulnerable to theft of my property.problem #2 - driver door lock.the driver's door mysteriously unlocks at times (only the driver's door unlocks -- the other 3 doors remain locked) - . So far, this only occurs while the engine is off and the vehicle is stationary and parked.i have noticed by now that on over 10 occasions, my drivers door (only) is already unlocked when i approached the vehicle. The "passive lock" feature is on, so the car automatically locks itself as i walk away from it (and i always listen for horn chirp while walking away indicating that the car has locked itself). Other times, i double-check the locking by either using the key fob or depress the inside power lock power door lock switch or press the unlock/lock small button on the exterior driver door handle.when i find the driver's door unlocked, it is impossible for me to manually re-lock the car. If i press the interior power door lock button, all 4 door locks lock momentarily, then all 4 doors unlock themselves - (so now all 4 doors are unlocked). The only way for me to lock the car at this point is to use the key fob.

The major component of this car is the cue screen. The cue screen is connected to the ability to defrost and cooling/heating system in the vehicle. Currently, the cue screen is frozen and the operations of variessystems are at a halt. This is a safety issues. Currently due to leather seats unable to cool in extreme heat and have had some minor burnsalso, the cooling sysyem is not working due to the freezing of the cue screen, there are many complaints of this matter since 2013. There should be a recall on this issue for safety.
Purchased my 2017xt5 9/13/2017.while driving down a main street, i stopped for a light.when the light turned green,the car would not move.could not turn it off nor could i try to put it in another gear.a kind gentleman, who was behind me, got out of his car and asked if i was okay.i told him the car would not move.he tried.no luck..i got behind the wheel again and tried to shut it off, again.eventually, it shut off.i pressed the started again and it rebooted.very scary... Prayed that i would make it home.next at, called the dealer.even afraid to drive it in for fear of it stopping but i was close to home.the dealer kept it for 3 days.could not find out what was wrong but was told that they could not diagonose it unless it stopped.my brother took his car in for repairs and told his mechanic that my car stopped, just idled, in the middle of a main street and started laughing.but his mechanic said "was it a cadillac"?my brother said yes.the mechanic said that the company was having trouble with the electric system and have not been able to find the trouble.besides that, i had to have the spray for the wipers adjusted.now, my sun roof does not work.i am afraid to drive this car. I want to give it back.what should i do????
The cadillac cue screen freezes while i am driving the car (vehicle in motion - or could be stopped at red light, but engine is on).this has happened dozens of times during the past 1 year that i have owned the car. I am suddenly unable to increase/decrease volume, change radio station, cannot use gps, cannot adjust anything on the cue screen -- it is completely frozen.the only way to get it working again - pull off to side of road. Shut engine off; get out of car; lock the car doors; re-enter the car; start the vehicle engine - usually the cue screen is once again responsive at this point.this is a major pain as during a recent 1 hour drive to pennsylvania, it happened 4 times and i had to pull over to the shoulder of interstate highway i-195. Exiting any vehicle on an interstate highway is somewhat nerve-racking.
The cue screen locks up and becomes inoperable several times a day.it causes the heat or a/c to not work properly and i am unable to use any function. The failure prevents me from properly heating or cooling the vehicle, use the nav function, and the screen will automatically reprogram my settings, make beeping noises, and become a significant distraction while driving. Safety related issue.
Last year, we bought our car from a dealership used. We noticed the cadillac cue was very glitchy. We took it into the dealership and they calibrated the system. We were on a trip using the gps and it glitched several times. Had to pull over and set up our phones. Nothing works in the cadillac cue when this happens. Climate control, gps, apps, wifi, and music. Took it back, told it was no longer under warranty and gm was aware of all the issues yet refuse to do a recall. Dealership said eventually it would shatter. Well, yesterday, we got in our car and noticed it had in fact shattered. Top right corner and bottom left corner. This is a huge hazard as it would cut someone. The system glitches whether the car is moving or setting still in park. Called gm today and they basically said it was on us.
$70k for a vehicle and the screen spidered. Cadillac says not under recall. Not usable.
While i'm driving even like 50 mile hit the break for a reason car completely stalled no power for break or steering or anything you cannot move the car anyplace i almost hit the person in front of me and i almost got hit in the back it has been the end of last year and it keeps happening. Recently i took it to the tailor five times he had no idea what is that.

Xt5 has a transmission shudder, between 16mph and 50mph, with the aisin af50-8 transmission. Gm reports no problem with the aisin. Cadillac technician drove vehicle and did notice shudder. Next step, involve gm engineer. If he doesn't find an issue, i have to live with the shudder.
On 4 separate occasions over the last few months the power steering has quit working while driving.has happened while turning and while driving straight.has happened while accelerating and while driving constant speed. After stopping, turning engine off and then restarting the problem goes away.i do get a message that power steering is out on the dash but it is very evident when it goes out.internet search says this is a problem on other models and recall issued.dealer says no such recall on my vehicle.
Pulled into parking space. Vehicle went to auto stop/start. Wife thought engine was off and pressed park on shift lever. Engine restarted and vehicle lunged into post.
2017 xts, rear suspension air bags fail while driving, stoped and even parked. While driving at highway speeds or just parked rear end will drop unexpectedly. The rear end will start to bounce with just the slightest uneven road. This cause the driver to have to fight to stay in control of car and slow down very fast. With traffic behind it can cause someone to hit you from rear. Car has been to dealer several times and cadillac say everything is normal. However after leaving dealer it continues to happen. Cadillac has know about this for many years and ignores the problem on the xts. The rear end will drop to a level the you can not even touch the top of the tire or even the middle. Almost touching the ground at rear. First time was april 2019 right after warranty was out. The said i needed shocks 1500.00 did not do anything but drain my wallet. Cadillac needs to own up to the problem and fix it.

The cue system on my cadillac cracked and itā€™s affecting my screen. No music no navigation. No air nothing and an annoying beep every 60 seconds.
The cue system freezes up and is unusable. It is intermittant.

Alamo rental car put my wife and son and me in a 2017 cadillac xtsat denver international airport on thursday 2 february 2017.while driving to boulder on a 75-mph highway i had to adjust the driver's seat.adjusting the driver's seat meant also having to adjust the mirrors.i knew i could adjust the mirrors by feeling for buttons with my left hand.unfortunately, one of the button options was designed to collapse the side mirrors; this i did not know.imagine my surprise when, at highway speeds, both side mirrors disappeared.i tried to undo my unexpected error but could not succeed by touch.my wife and son had to serve as "human side mirrors" until, after many miles with no exit, i could make a series of right-hand turns, stop in a parking lot, and consult an owner's manual online.why would general motors have designed the side mirrors to be collapsable while the car was in motion?i might imagine wanting to collapse the mirrors while rolling slowly into a tight parking space or garage, but i can think of no excuse for allowing the collapse function to operate while driving at highway speeds.we could have been killed.anyone could have been killed.
The lane departure and lane keep assist, both safety features, do not work with any degree ofconsistency. They only work occasionally.2 dealers confirmed the problem but without a factory fix they are unable to remedy the problem.
