I am writing to express my serious concerns regarding a critical safety defect in my 2015 Cadillac SRX. The low beam headlights are dangerously dim, rendering night driving extremely hazardous. Despite GM's awareness of this defect, as evidenced by technical service bulletins and customer satisfaction campaigns, no adequate solution has been provided. My warranty has expired, but this defect is not due to any action on my part; it is a clear manufacturing flaw. The moisture accumulation within the headlight assemblies leads to electrical failures and corrosion, significantly impairing visibility. I had the same headlight issue with my 2011 Malibu and the pains it took to replace the headlights and wiring has been an unnecessary hassle. Do you know that they charge $200 to replace Malibu headlights" Is that reasonable" Speaking of the financial burden of repairing defective headlights, for the Cadillac SRX, the estimated repair cost is between $1,500 and $5,000, is unreasonable and unacceptable, especially considering the systemic nature of this problem. GM-??s proposed reimbursements have been insufficient and do not address the root cause, as replacements continue to use the same flawed components. Several lawsuits have been filed against GM due to these defective headlights. The plaintiffs in these cases have reported severe safety hazards, including accidents caused by the dim headlights. One plaintiff stated, "I had an accident due to the low beam lights on my 2012 Cadillac SRX. It was still dark at 5:30 AM when I failed to see the outer road turned which caused me to collide with a curb and become airborne. This accident caused 3 blown-out tires and 2 ruined rims. This cost me $1700 and it was all caused by the extremely dim low beam headlights". Another plaintiff mentioned, "We are afraid of driving our car, a 2015 Cadillac SRX, at night because you can not see. Later we learned that there is an inherent problem with the design of the headlight assembly seal

The headlights are ineffective. It is like driving without headlights at night. Had bulbs replaced but did not improve lighting. Moisture on inside of windshield. On cold evenings the inside of the windshield is frozen. March 21, 2024 the tailgate will not open. It appears this is a common complaint with this vehicle caused by drainage from the sunroof leaking onto the module that powers the tailgate.

There is a known safety issue with the factory headlights as they are far too deem at night. Unsafe to drive. I had to pay money out of my pocket to replace the headlights as Cadillac no longer replaces them. There should be a permanent recall and coverage for this. Please investigate this issue as this should not be something an owner should have to pay when it clearly is an issue with the manufacturer.

Headlights full of condensation, dirty foggy lense, not enough illumination. Bulbs burning out and have become so dim you can't drive at night and not at all in the rain. Very dangerous. November 24, 2023. Purchased car used in October 2023, and did not drive other than during day light. Took car on a 7 hour trip to Uniontown, PA from Virginia Beach. Could not see the road after 5 pm. It was dark and raining. I had to slow down to a stop in the road until passing cars went by. The headlights on the srx were so dim I could not see the sides of road or the lines painted on road. I contacted Cadillac customer service and they told me take it to dealer to get assessment And not to drive at night in the meantime. My ability to see the road was impossible. I had to practically stopped briefly in the road as oncoming cars passed by. I could only guess that I was still on the road until another car approached from behind to illuminate the road in front of me. It was very dangerous. I am a seasoned driver and I have a older 04 SRX that has original lights and no issues like this 2015 model. Very bad parts. The headlights are a Dangerous driving hazard to both driver, passengers, oncoming cars and cars following if in the road at night. GM needs to do a recall and replace these lights with aftermarket product. Bad manufacturing has made even the OEM replacement unsatisfactory. They will just go bad again.

I almost drove off the road one night because my headlights were so dim on my 2015 Cadillac SRX are so dim at night you can't see anything properly. I had to put on my high beams to even see. I purchased this vehicle used and missed the short period they would replace them. Cadillac has refused to help with this dangerous issue and it's apalling how much money the dealership wants to replace them.

Just bought this vehicle and it is undrivable at night due to the dim low beam headlights. This seams to be a problem with these vehicles from 2010 to 2016. I called GM customer service and was given a number for GM analytics (1-888-305-1605), the recording states that the time to be reimbursed has passed and that they are no longer taking any further claim submissions. GM has settled class action lawsuits in Florida and California for this issue and sent letters to some SRX owners offering reimbursement for repairs.

Unbeknownst to me, the 2010-2015 Cadillac SRX is prone to moisture in the headlights. We just bought a used 2015, and as night came, we went for our first evening drive, and the low beams are extremely dangerously dim. It looks like they weren-??t even on. Searching the internet on how to fix the problem, I came across what seems to be a ridiculous amount of unsatisfied customers with the same problem and Cadillac refusing to help or recall with a different replacement, since replacing with the same damaged part, just happens again with the moisture problem. There-??s even been a lawsuit, which was thrown out by the judge. If a driver has a blown bulb anywhere in their car, they are given a warning to replace or a ticket if they don-??t. How do we replace something that-??s going to fail again, because of a defective manufacturer part? Doesn-??t seem fair, and I for one will be driving with my high beams, so that I can see at night, after spending my hard earned money on what i think is a great and reliable car made by a company like Cadillac. Very disappointing to read all the neglected customers just trying to have a defective part be recalled and made right by such a huge company. There was also a reimbursement program that people struggled with getting reimbursed if it wasn-??t done exactly how they stated. This need your attention please. Cadillac/GM needs to recall all srx headlights and replace with newer and non defective ones before someone gets killed because of the dangers of extremely low dimming and defective lighting SAFETY FIRST

When driving at night with the headlights on dim, I can barely see the road. I have to drive with them on bright. I have heard other SRX have had the same problem. I-??ve called a Cadillac dealership twice to get info about a repair-??they said they would call back but have not and it-??s been at least 4 months since I contacted them.

Cannot see at night, headlights are too dim even after being replaced. After looking into it, this seems to be a major problem for everyone that owes these vehicles. I just bought this vehicle used in December 2021 and did not test drive it at night, so did not know it was an issue when purchased.
