Transmission drags. When stopping the car jerks bad and sometimes proceeds to accelerate. When at a stop auto start has a hard jerk I reported this problem to Cadillac dealership when I first got the car. They claim they couldn't find an issue. The touch pad goes out frequently.

The gas fuel tank continuously stops every time you are pumping gas. So it takes very long to fill up the tank. My center electrical screen for the radio, bluetooth, etc doesn't work. I paid extra for the feature and it doesn't work.

While arriving at stop lights the caddillac roughly shifts down jolting the whole vehicle. Around 1500 rpms whether its sitting or just passing 1500 rpms the whole vehicle shutters and vibrates aggresively until around 2000 RPM. Rpms jump up and down between 1000 and 3000 rpms

The radio screen is cracking from the inside of the screen I'm getting a spiderweb effect that is not allowing me to see the screen. Can't see the speed of my ac fan becasue I can't see the screen, can't change to bluetooth because I can't see the screen, can't use my navigation system that I paid extra for because I can't see the screen due to the spiderweb effect. This is a defect as I have used the radio under normal use and it should not crack from the inside. I can't use any of the radio features due to this issue.
