2013 Cadillac ATS Problems & Complaints

I was in a vehicle accident on 9-26-25 and was t-boned. The other driver hit me at 35-45 after she blew the stopping, I was hit on the driver side pillar and back driver door. My air bags never deployed and I was trapped inside the car until the fire department was on scene

Vehicle would not steer lost power steering and loud noise. Had the vehicle towed to a mechanic. The mechanic informed me that the bolts for the electronic power steering had corroded causing the electronic steering motor to fall. He told me that it is a problem with these cars and gave me a reference number (N202301950) I called GM and they said it was not a recall it was a service bulletin which I never received and is now expired. The vehicle needs a whole new Electric Power Steering Rack and Pinion Assembly due to the faulty corroded GM Bolts not to mention that I could have died or someone else could have been killed due to losing the ability to steer the vehicle because of the faulty GM parts. GM said it is my responsibility to pay for repairs which is thousands of dollars again due to their faulty parts and no fault of my own also not normal wear and tear.

Found metal shavings in oil after 13 visits to 3 different dealerships. Engine had to be replaced. Under 100,000 mikes with a service contract

Air bag lights came on.

Car has a shudder at acceleration acting as if it's in the wrong gear or shifts too soon seems like failing TCC in tge transmission not sure this issue could cause accidents due to car not accelerating fast enough with people behind you they could rear end you

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, the engine overheated. The contact stated that the A/c was independently turned off due to engine overheating. The contact was able to pull over safely. The contact stated that the coolant reservoir was empty. The contact added coolant, but the engine continued overheating. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined that the water pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. While driving at an undisclosed speed, the stability track and engine warning lights illuminated and started flashing. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate above 25 MPH. The vehicle was towed to the same independent mechanic, who determined that the engine had misfired over 40,000 times. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 191,000.

I’m writing here to state that the Cadillac with this VIN [XXX] IS A FRAUDULENT SALE my husband and I have experienced. The car show no damages on CarFax but when we took the car to a certified Cadillac dealership they said they were shocked we could even drive it. The catalytic Converter is completely missing along with several other computer systems issues. The car jumps up and down when you drive it, feels like horseback riding more than a car ride. Cadillac denied working on the car and advised us not to drive it at all Every single warning light that could be on the dash/odometer lit up approx 5mins of being on the highway. Throw the car in the junkyard where it belongs! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Car keeps cutting off, when put in neutral, or just cutting on RPM goes up then goes down and cut off, when driving car starts off slow then speed up. put a new fuel pump in the car.

I had a total loss of steering about two weeks ago, scariest thing ever in my 50 years of driving. A local automotive shop inspected the car and found one steering motor bolt missing and two broken/sheared laying in their casting holes.General Motors issued a Customer Satisfaction Program 18207 – Loss of Power Steering Assist directive for steering rack inspection and repair and/or replacement. My 2013 Cadillac ATS had the bolt failure exactly as described in the directive but is not covered as the directive program was in effect until November 30, 2020 and has expired. It was and is still a poor engineering design by GM engineering and it still effects those of us operating the models listed in GM CSP 18207. This should have been a recall and not have had an end date of 11/30/2020. I'm sure there are many owners like myself that were never notified by General Motors of this design flaw as it was never a formal recall. I would ask that the NHTSA review Customer Satisfaction Program 18207 as the loss of electric steering due to poor engineering design along with the safety of owners driving the affected vehicles still poses a danger and could seriously injure or kill someone. I do not understand why GM ended the program 11/30/2020. I would like to see either a CSP 18207 with no end date or preferably a recall to ensure owners are notified. I had never heard of an issue with my 2013 Cadillac ATS steering until I had this total steering failure. I only found out about Customer Satisfaction Program 18207 – Loss of Power Steering Assist because I searched the Web to see if other owners had experienced this failure. The repair cost to fix this is around $3,000 dollars. General Motors knows it was a poor design and in my opinion they should continue their 18207 Customer Satisfaction Program and not expect owners to pay. Thank you.

My Vehicle will shift out of gear but will not move and there is a rattling sound when the gear is tried to be put back in park and rest of gears

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle and switching gears, the vehicle would not move forward or backward. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a local independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the failure was possibly related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V338000 (Power Train). Another local independent mechanic was contacted for a second opinion and informed the contact that the transmission shifter cable had failed. The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired due to the VIN not being included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V338000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 87,000.

Breaks are not working properly, once the car sits for a few hours, then once I start it and put it into gear (reverse/drive) as I press the breaks(new break pads) the car continues to roll. This could be the abs module or the calipers but these should be good for the life of the vehicle. No dealer has the abs module. So now I'm stuck putting myself and others in danger.

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V338000 (Power Train). The contact discovered that the recall was repaired, however, the failure occurred. The contact's husband was parked in the vehicle while shifting into drive, and the gear shifter became stuck in between park and drive. The contact turned the vehicle off; however, the vehicle would not restart. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with automatic transmission control shift cable detachment. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was contacted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 86,000.

Took it in 2 weeks ago for an oil changed and they replaced a camshaft solenoid saying that was causing my issues. I had to take it back yesterday and now they're telling me it's a torque converter or a transmission and it's going to cost me $3,500. After reviewing I think have GM has a lot of issues with this component . GM was aware of the situation and never fixed it. As I read through the technical Bulletin due to the cost so they have the consumers pick up the cost.

Greetings! I hope this message finds you in great health and spirits. I am experiencing an issue with the transmission linkage cable on my 2013 Cadillac ATS Luxury. There was a product safety recall issued in 2014 - recall bulletin 14179A. I purchased this vehicle in January 2015. I took it to a local Cadillac dealership and they found that I need a new cable. They stated the issue was repaired in 2014, before I owned the vehicle, and they have refused to fix the issue at no cost to me. If the cable was replaced with the same part that has deemed defective and the recall does not expire, this should be resolved at the manufacturer's expense.

Adaptive forward lighting malfunctions. Lights point upward sometimes while driving and will not change. It blinds on coming vehicles.

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle and attempting to shift into drive, the vehicle failed to shift out of park. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related it to NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V338000 (Power Train), and the VIN was included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was repaired under the recall by the previous owner of the vehicle. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 150,000.

Second time shifter cable failed. Thankfully I was in park and not driving. I had it replaced in 2021 and now 2023 it did the same thing.

I was in a minor rear end accident. I was the victim. My driver seat felt like it came off the hinges causing me to hit my face and chest on the steering wheel.

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated while parking the vehicle, the contact attempted to shift into reverse; however, the vehicle failed to respond. The contact turned off the vehicle however, the vehicle failed to shift out of drive. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the shifter cable was out of place. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 89,000.

It appears that the transmission shift cable detached while I was driving the vehicle. I went to stop the vehicle and put it in park and the vehicle kept rolling. I had to press the parking break to keep the vehicle from moving.

Rear differential is a main issue with the 2013 Cadillac ATS I have read many complains I’m not understanding why there has yet to be a recall on the year an model there was a recall on the 2014 cts. But for the 2013 Ats the dealership said there was poor welding which caused leaks and that should have been and automatic recall.

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated while attempting to reverse, the gear shifter was stuck in park(P), while the instrument panel indicated that the vehicle was in neutral(N). There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that there was a recall related to the failure. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V338000 (Power Train) however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was unknown.

2011 Cadillac ATS 3.6, Rear Differential went out, Repairmen has stated that this part is not available anywhere, and that Cadillac should have recalled this in the ATS, because there is a shortage of this part. Due to the inefficiency of the Rear Differential. But, Cadillac would have been out of a lot of money. Without this part, the Cadillac is undrivable.

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated while stopped at a traffic light or while slowing to approximately 15 MPH, the vehicle started shaking and idling roughly. The contact stated that the check engine and driver’s assist warning light were illuminated. The contact stated that the motive power was reduced and the vehicle hesitated while depressing the accelerator pedal. Additionally, the power steering failed to function as needed. The contact arrived at her destination and after restarting the vehicle, the power steering functionality returned. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer who diagnosed that the thermostat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 52,000.

I was making a left turn and I heard a loud popping noise. I pulled the vehicle into a parking lot. After stopping it would not move. When I put the car in gear I would hear a loud grinding noise coming from the back wheel base. I had the vehicle towed to a repair shop. I was told that the roll pins that connect the axel to the rear differential had come out. I am unable to have the car repaired because there are no rear differentials available in that there is a nationwide back order and no one knows when they will be available. This seems similar to the problem that led to a recall of the 2014-15 Cadillac CTS model. NHTSA Recall No. : 20V-038 https://www.autoblog.com/2020/02/03/cadillac-cts-v-sport-recall/

While waiting for the car in front of me in the valet line, I put my 2013 Cadillac ATS in park. When it was my turn, I attempted to put the car back in drive to move forward, but the shifter was locked in the park position. I had my foot on the brake and when I took it off the car began rolling forward, even though the shifter was in the park position. The screen above the steering wheel as well as the light on the shifter indicated that my vehicle was in drive, even though the shifter was locked in the 'park' position. I powered the car off, and after that it would not start. The screen and on the shifter still indicated that the car was in drive. Ultimately, the vehicle had to be towed. After having the vehicle inspected by a mechanic, it was found that the transmission shift cable became detached/failed/malfunctioned. I discovered that there was a recall on certain Cadillac vehicles for the issue I experienced, (recall number 14V338000). However, my vehicle did not have the recall when my VIN was looked up, but my car experienced the recall issue nevertheless. My safety as well as several others were put at risk because the car would roll if my foot was not on the brake, which could have seriously injured anybody/anything in its path. There were no warning lamps/messages/symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The vehicle component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, as they quoted me a price of over $1000, holding me responsible even when there is a recall that matches the failure that took place in my vehicle.

There is a shudder at around 1500 to 2k rpms and appears there have been thousands of complaints about this. Also the touch screen has been replaced 7 times in my car which is another issue with the ATS LEMON.

Airbag module fail on passenger seat

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated that while her husband was driving approximately 35-40 MPH, the vehicle started making abnormal loud popping sounds, and the vehicle inadvertently stalled. The contact's husband was able to push the vehicle to the side of the road with assistance. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that one of the driver’s side rear axle was missing all the bolts. Additionally, the passenger’s side rear axle was missing one bolt and had loosened bolts. The independent mechanic replaced the driver’s side rear axle bolts and washers and tightened the passenger side rear axle bolts. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 115,000.

The contact owns a 2013 Cadillac ATS. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked in a parking lot, the vehicle was shifted to reverse and then shifted to drive however, the vehicle moved backward. The brakes would not engage when depressed to stop the vehicle from moving backward. The contact applied parking brakes to stop the vehicle. The contact had assistance from an independent mechanic who helped to move the vehicle into a parking space. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired and remained at the parking lot. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V338000 (Power Train). The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

While out driving, the vehicle would not shift gear into park upon arriving at a parking lot. The car was transported to an nearby garage and the transmission shift cable was found to be melted/severed upon undercarriage inspection. This is a recall for other models of 2013-2014 ATS. If the transmission shift cable detaches while the vehicle is being driven, the transmission gear selection may not match the indicated gear and the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Furthermore, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, despite selecting the 'PARK' position, the transmission may not be in 'PARK.' If the vehicle is not in the 'PARK' position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.

Advance lighting system the headlights stick up in the air when they should be leveled out. It’s a danger when driving at night.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE SHIFTED OUT OF PARK. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED.

UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V338000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000.

THE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROL ON THE CENTER CONSOLE IS NOT WORKING AS DESIGNED. I AM UNABLE TO TO CHANGE FUNCTIONS, SUCH AS CHANGING RADIO CONTROLS TO AIR CONDITIONING CONTROLS. I AM UMABLE TO NAVIGATE THE SCREEN UP/DOWN AND SIDE TO SIDE. IT BOUNCES AROUMD UNCONTROLLABLE AND WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE.

I BEEN HAVING ELECTRONIC ISSUES SICE I GOT IT FROM DEALER IN TEMPE AZ CALLED AUTO NATION. THE MAIN TOUCH SCREEN IN COCKPIT WON'T POWER UP HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES IN PAST FOR REPAIR/REPLACE THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN AN NOT ALL PARTS AND SERVICE WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY I HAD THRU ALSTATE AN IT WAS A COUPLE HUNDRED OUT OF POCKET FOR THE NEW HARNESS ASSEMBLY THAT CADILLAC HAD FOR A NEW TOUCH SCREEN ASSEMBLY THAT WAS INSTALLED THE LAST TIME IN 2018 AN NOW IT'S HAPPENED AGAIN SCREEN WON'T TURN ON AC CONTROLS WON'T WORK AN TURN SIGNALS ARE INTERMITTENT ALMOST GOT REAR-ENDED DRIVING THROUGH TOWN BECAUSE TURN SIGNAL WOULD NOT INDICATE DIRECTION I WAS TURNING AN OTHER DRIVER HAD BRAKES LOCKED UP SLIDING TOWARDS ME BUT LUCKILY STOPPED WITH ONLY INCHES APART VERY SCARY. BUT IT COMING IN TO SUMMER A AC IS A MUST TO HAVE. BUT NOW SINCE THIS HAS HAPPENED THERE IS A BAD POWER DRAW SOMEWHERE THAT KEEPS MAKING MY BATTERY GO DEAD SO CAR IS PARKED TILL I CAN ENOUGH FINANCES TO COVER MECHANIC. CAR IS WELL MAINTAINED AND NOT DRIVEN HARD IT SHOWS NO RECALLS FOR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS BUT THIS WILL BE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN AN WOULDN'T THINK I AM THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPEN TO.

ON STARTUP THE HEADLIGHTS AUTO LEVEL. ISSUE ARISES WHEN HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROPERLY LEVEL AND ARE LEFT AT UNSAFE POSITIONS.

THE VEHICLE WAS LEAVING A PARKING SPACE WHEN THE POWER STEERING JUST STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE SERVICE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON ANDHAD TO GET THE TOWED TO THE MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC FOUND THE POWER STEERING BOLTS CORRODED AND IN ORDER TO REMOVED THEM HE HAD TO REMOVE THE RACK AND PINION AND ALSO FOUND THOSE BOLTS TO BE CORRODED. MY DAUGHTER WAS USING THE VEHICLE AND USUALLY TRAVELS ON THE HIGHWAY TO WORK

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON 2.5.21. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND IT NEEDED A HOSE AND SENSOR WHICH WAS FIXED. ON THE MULTIPOINT INSPECTION,IT WAS NOTED THAT THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS LEAKING WHICH CAN CAUSE THE TIRES TO SEIZE WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR ONLY HAS 63K MILES ON IT. IT IS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS TURBO.THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY EXPIRED AND THEY WILL NOT COVER THE REPLACEMENT.HOWEVER, I DID FIND A RECALL ON THE CTS MODEL. I ALSO SEE A LARGE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ON THE ATS MODEL, AS WELL. THE DEALER QUOTED ME $5K TO REPLACE THE DIFFERENTIAL WITH ONLY A 1 YEAR WARRANTY. I BELIEVE THIS IS A RESULT OF POOR QUALITY AND CRAFTMANSHIP AND THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE ATS MODELS, AS WELL. THE FACT THAT THEY ONLY OFFER A 1 YEAR WARRANTY IS ALSO CONCERNING. THIS WOULD REFLECT THEY KNOW OF THE ISSUE, AND WILL ONLY COVER IT FOR THE SHORTEST AMOUNT POSSIBLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A FAULTY CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED.

APPARENTLY THIS IS A WIDE KNOWN ISSUE WITH GM AND WILL NOT BE COVERED TO FIX. WHICH IS ABOUT $2K OUT OF POCKET. THIS CAR IS PARKED IN A GARAGE 100% OF THE TIME AND IS BARELY DROVE 2 MILES PER DAY.

IT WASN'T IMPACTED BY ANYTHING JUST DUE TO WHATEVER MATERIALS THEY USE TO MAKE THEM THEY RANDOMLY SHATTER OVER NIGHT, CADILLAC NEEDS TO FIX THIS SOLUTION, WE CAN'T BE REPLACING STEREOS EVER 3RD YEAR DUE TO A MANUFACTURER MISTAKE. *TR

BUSHING FOR THE SHIFTER LINKAGE ATTACHED TO THE TRANSMISSION FAILED RENDERING THE CAR NOT TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE GEARS

CAR WON'T DRIVE PAST 40MPH WITHOUT SERIOUS SHAKING AND VIBRATIONS. HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAD MULTIPLE THINGS FIXED WITH THE VEHICLE BUT STILL HAVE MAJOR CAN'T DRIVE THE CAR PAST 40MPH. LAST ESTIMATE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. 4-5K TO REPAIR. CADILLAC TOLD ME IT WAS THE COIL RODS WHICH THEY REPLACED. BROUGHT IT BACK AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS A PIPE THAT WAS CRACKED GOING TO THE ENGINE. STILL HAVE SAME PROBLEM. HAD THE TIRES AND ALIGNMENT CHECKED. THEY SAID IT WAS TRANSMISSION. BROUGHT TO ANOTHER PLACE THEY THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE THE ENGINE. ISSUE ARE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH SPEEDS OVER 40MPH.

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE ON JANUARY 8, 2020 TO SOUTHTOWNE GMC IN NEWNAN,GA . I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH WHAT APPEARED TO BE THE TRANSMISSION. I TOLD THE SERVICE PERSON MY CAR WAS TAKING A LITTLE TIME ONCE I PUT IT IN DRIVE MODE. THE SERVICE GENTLEMAN TOOK A HAN HELD DEVICE AND PLACED IT UNDER THE DASHBOARD OF THE VEHICLE AND TOLD ME IT WAS NOT DETECTING A PROBLEM. HE CHECKED THE DASHBOARD AND NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOT ON. I TOLD HIM I WANTED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE, HE SAID SINCE IT WAS NOT DETECTING A PROBLEM IT DOES NO GOOD TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC. HE NEVER INFORMED ME ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE. HE TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO, THAT HE WAS SWAMPED WITH REPAIRS AND THAT IF I WANTED HIM TO CHECK MY TRANSMISSION I WOULD HAVE TO COME BACK IN MARCH. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR AWAY. ONE WEEK LATER THE CAR BARELY MOVES. BARELY GOES INTO GEAR. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR SINCE JANUARY 15, 2020. CAN I GET SOME HELP PLEASE.

THE FUEL LINE BROKE DUE TO THE HIGH SIDE FUEL PUMP SEIZING UP AND THE BREAK AWAY BOLT BREAKING CAUSING THE PUMP TO BE UNSTABLE. THUS THE VIBRATION CAUSING THE FUEL LINE TO BRAKE SPEWING GAS ALL OVER. THE FUEL LINE BREAKING THEN PROMPTS THE COMPUTER SOMETHING WITH FUEL IS MALFUNCTIONING AND SHUTS MOTOR TO HALF RUNNING POWER AN THROUGHS SOME MORE FUEL RELATED CODES. RENDERING YOUR VEHICLE INOPERABLE AND NEEDING A TOW TO A SHOP FOR REPAIRS. THE FUEL PUMP DESIGN HELPS SAVE YOUR MOTOR IN THIS EVENT FROM BEING DESTROYED, WHEN IT MALFUNCTIONS LIKE THIS. THE FUEL PUMP DESIGN SEEMS LIKE IT COULD BE HIGHLY DANGEROUS. WITH FUEL BE SPEWED OUT AT HIGH PRESSURE IS UNSAFE. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE FUEL LINE BREAKING BECAUSE OF THIS DESIGN IS A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE 2018 CADILLAC HAS A RECALL ON THIS EXACT SAME THING THAT HAPPENED TO MY 2013 BUT THE 2013 HAS NO RECALL ON IT?? WHEN MY VEHICLE FUEL LINE BROKE I WAS DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITIONS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS. I'M SURE THERE WAS TURNING AND BRAKING IN THE MIDST OF THE FUEL LINE BREAKING. THE SPECIFIC PART THAT BROKE WAS FUEL LINE PART NUMBER 12627125 AND HIGH SIDE FUEL PUMP PART NUMBER 12658486.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS. WHEN THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, IT SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT IT FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT HAD TO WAIT APPROXIMATELY THIRTY MINUTES FOR THE VEHICLE TO RETURN TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO OAKES AUTO GROUP (1009 US-82, GREENVILLE, MS 38701, (662) 335-2886), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TEST DRIVEN, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,400.

I PULLED OVER 2 SEE WHAT A NOISE WAS PUT IT IN PARK THANK GOD I DID BECAUSE WHEN I TRY TO PUT IT BACK IN GEAR IT WOULD NOT GO INTO ANY GEARS BUT THE SHIFTER REMOVE IT JUST WASN'T CONNECTED IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN GEAR I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED

SEVERAL TIMES WHEN SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN THE VEHICLE SHUDDERS AND SHUT OFF HAVE TO RESTART IT I'VE ALMOST BEEN HIT A FEW TIMES THE MAJOR PROBLEM I'D LIKE TO HAVE A LOW IDLE OR SOMETHING I DON'T UNDERSTAND

CUE TOUCHSCREEN FAILS TO RESPOND TO TOUCH. IT STARTED GOING BAD AT THE BOTTOM, BUT THE PROBLEM "SPREADS" UPWARDS MAKING THE ENTIRE SCREEN UNUSABLE. THE HVAC AND RADIO CONTROLS ARE ALL ON THIS TOUCHSCREEN, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL THESE FEATURES WHILE DRIVING. OTHER SETTINGS FOR THE VEHICLE ARE ALSO IN THE CUE SYSTEM, AND ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR ADJUSTING. NAVIGATION BECOMES UNUSABLE AS WELL.

TAKATA RECALL THERE HAS BEEN NO "INCIDENT" RE THE 2013 ATS. THE ISSUE ORIGINATED WITH RECALL NOTICES TO MY DEALER AND TO ME RE (1) STEERING (2) AIR BAGS (3) BRAKES. THE AIRBAG ISSUE INVOLVES CONTINUAL WARNING BY LIGHT AND BY SOUND RE THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG. DEALER SECRETARY STATES THAT SHE HAS NOTICES FOR ALL THREE (ABOVE) TO BE RECALLED. DEALER GARAGE, HOWEVER, STATES THAT THE ONLY RECALL WAS STEERING AND HAVE RECENTLY REPAIRED THE STEERING. I RECALL RECEIVING RECALL NOTICES AT MY HOME BUT NO LONGER HAVE THEM. AND SO, COMPLAINANT IS SEEKING TO LEARN WHETHER THE BRAKES AND THE AIR BAG WARNING NEED ADDRESSING.

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

MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY ON A CITY STREET AND MY WIFE WAS REAR-ENDED AND WAS PUSHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF HER, AND THE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED. THE CAR IS COMPLETELY TOTALED AND A CAR CRASH THIS BAD SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED THE AIRBAG.

2013 ATS AWD 3.6 . VEHICLE STARTED MAKING A HIGH PITCH WHINING SOUND. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 100,203 MILES (MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES) AND UNDER 5 YEARS AND REAR END DIFFERENTIAL FAILED DEALER ESTIMATED COST $3500 BECAUSE WARRANTEE ENDED AT 5 YEARS OR 70,000. IS THIS RELATED TO POOR WELDS PREVIOUS REPORTED?

TAKATA RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR MY AIRBAGS. NOTHING HAPPENED. MY AIRBAGS WERE DEEMED TO BE DANGEROUS/RECALLED/ SAME WITH MY STEERING WHEEL (2).. SAME FOR REAR BRAKES. YOUR QUESTIONS ARE NOT RELEVANT. NOTHING HAPPENED. RATHER RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED ON AIRBAGS, STEERING WHEEL (2) AND ON MY REAR BRAKES.

IMPROPER REAR DIFFERENTIAL RING GEAR WELD. THERE IS A GAP THAT IS NOT PROPERLY SEALED ON REAR DIFFERENTIAL HOUSING THAT CAUSES FLUIDS TO LEAK.

FROM 3/2013 TO 3/2019 A 3 YEAR PERIOD I HAVE REPLACED ALL TIRES 3 TIMES DUE TO IRREGULAR WEAR INSIDE, NOW EXPERIENCING ROARING NOISE FROM READ WHEEL. TIRES WERE CONTINUALLY ROTATED DURING REGULAR SERVICES WITH THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE LIGHT ILLUMINATED SHOWING LOW PRESSURE LOW, DEALER WAS ADVISED ON EACH OCCURRENCE PRIOR TO RECEIVING SERVICE . THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE DISENGAGED ON 8/31/2018 THE DEALER CHARGED ME FOR REPAIRS WHEN THIS WAS PART OF A RECALL PRIOR TO MY OWNING THE CAR, AND WAS NOT AVAILABLE TO ME AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE CARFAX DID NOT DISCLOSE

IN ADDITION, THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND 'STEERING ASSIST, TAKE CARE' APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT HAD TO PUSH THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE LOCATION.

I CAN FAX YOU OR GIVE YOU THE DEALERSHIP NUMBER SO YOU CAN GET ALL THE TIMES IT BEEN IN THE SHOP AND ALL THE PROBLEMS.

AUTO-LEVELING HID HEADLIGHTS, ONE OR BOTH DO NOT PROPERLY AIM WHEN CAR IS STARTED AND HEADLAMP GOES THRU ITS SELF-CHECK. APPROX. 50% OF THE TIME A HEADLAMP WILL INITIALIZE AND AIM UP TOWARD THE SKY. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND A HAZARD FOR ME IF THE ROAD IS NOT PROPERLY LIT UP.

I PURCHASED A 2013 CADILLAC ATS 4 ON 9/29/16. ON 10/14/16 WHILE DRIVING MY STEERING COLUMN LIGHT UP AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP WHILE IN MOTION. I WAS IN DETROIT, MICHIGAN DRIVING ON GRATIOT, WHICH IS A STRAIGHT STREET, BUT I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL TO PULL OVER.

WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEAR I WAS TOLD TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN BY [XXX] AT NOVI CADILLAC BECAUSE THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE DEALER KEPT THE CAR AND ON 10/20/16 EXPLAINED THEY COULD NOT REDUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND GAVE ME MY CAR BACK. ON MY OWN, I CHECKED INTO PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL ONLY TO FIND THERE ARE OTHERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE ALWAYS SUPPORTED BUYING AMERICAN CARS, BUT PROBLEMS NEED TO BE FIXED WHEN THE COMPANY IS NOTIFIED OF A PROBLEM. I WILL BE ESCALATING THIS MATTER BECAUSE I AM NOT PLEASED THAT A PROBLEM EXISTS AND SERVICE DOES NOT SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH CUSTOMERS. I HAVE A "TRUST" BUT "VERIFY" WHEN IT COMES TO MY FAMILY SAFETY. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ON MY 2013 CADILLAC ATS PREMIUM MODEL MY CADILLAC CUE SYSTEM TOUCH SCREEN ISN'T WORKING I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR THREE DAYS FROM A DEALER. I AM NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM, THE WEATHER, RADIO SETTINGS, MY CLIMATE CONTROL, AND BLUETOOTH. BY RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY VERY VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH CADILLAC IN THEIR TOUCH SCREEN TECHNOLOGY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CADILLAC USER EXPERIENCE (CUE) SYSTEM FAILED WITHOUT WARNING.

THE WINDSHIELD ON THIS CAR IS SEVERELY FLAWED. THERE ARE NUMEROUS AIR BUBBLES AND BLISTERING AFFECTING YOUR VISIBILITY OUT OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. IT LOOKS LIKE THE WINDSHIELD IS DELAMINATING. I SEARCHED IN GOOGLE AND IT APPEARS I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES. SAME MAKE/MODEL AND YEAR.

MY SUNROOF WILL NOT CLOSE WHILE PARKED MY CAR DID NOT START. THE GAUGES AND LIGHTS CAME ON, BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT START WHILE PARKED MY DEFROST DOESN'T WORK ON THE FRONT WINDOW WHEN RAINING. THE WINDSHIELD IS FOGGY WHILE DRIVING

MEDIUM SIZE BULGE ( ABOUT 2") ON SIDEWALL NEXT TO RIM OF PASSENGER SIDE FRONT TIRE. MICHELIN PRIMACY MXM4 TIRE SIZE 225/40R/18. NOTICED WHEN VEHICLE PARKED AND I WAS WASHING RIMS.

I WANTED TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATIVE TO RECALL NO. 15299. THIS RECALL EFFECTED CADILLAC ATS REAR DEFROSTERS. THE "FIX" WAS TO ADD SOFTWARE CONTROLS THAT MINIMIZED THE RISK OF FIRE TO SOME OWNER, BUT IT CERTAINLY DID NOT ELIMINATE THE RISK. IN FACT I POINTED OUT TO CADILLAC LAST YEAR THAT THERE WERE STILL CONTROLS STRATEGIES THAT WOULD COULD RESULT IN A FIRE. MEANING FOR SOME OWNERS THE RECALL WOULD DO NOTHING TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF FIRE. WHEN I EXPRESSED THIS TO CADILLAC THEY IMMEDIATELY STOPPED RESPONDING TO MY EMAILS (ATTACHED). SINCE THEN CADILLAC HAS QUIETLY IMPLEMENTED AN ACTUAL FIX TO THE WEAK CONNECTORS. BUT THEY ARE NOT ISSUING THIS FIX TO ALL OWNERS. ONLY TO ONES THAT COMPLAIN ABOUT TO LOST FEATURES. SINCE THIS ACTUAL FIX ELIMINATES INSTEAD OF REDUCING THE LIFE SAFETY RISK IT MUST BE ADDED TO THE ORIGINAL RECALL.

CAR SHUT OFF FOR THE SECOND TIME NO ON HAS LOOKED IN TO THIS. THIS IS MY SECOND CAR ACCIDENT AND NOW OUT OF WORK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS. THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH MICHELIN PRIMACY MXM4, SIZE: 225/40/R18.

ENGINE IDLES ROUGHLY. I HAVE ONLY USED PREMIUM GAS DURING FILLUPS. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S BECAUSE I'M NOT USING TOP TIER GAS, WHICH IS RIDICULOUS. HOW CAN AN ENGINE'S FUEL SYSTEM BE THAT SENSITIVE BECAUSE ONE GAS IS MISSING SOME DETERGENTS PER COUNT IN COMPARISON. MY ECM NEEDS TO BE REPROGRAMMED TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS. IT SEEMED TO START SHAKING AFTER I GOT IT BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP THAT CORRECTED A RECALL PROBLEM THAT DEALT WITH AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. HOW DO YOU PUSH AN IGNORANT MANAGER TO TAKE CARE OF THIS INSTEAD OF BLAMING IT ON THE GAS?

ON BOTH MY CADILLAC'S, THE QUE SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. IF I HAVE THE QUE SYSTEM SET TO EITHER RADIO SCREEN OR NAVIGATION SCREENS AND I MAKE A BLUE- TOOTH CALL. THE DISPLAY STARTS IN EITHER THE RADIO SCREEN OR THE NAV SCREEN. WHEN I MAKE THE CALL, THE SCREEN CHANGES TO THE TELEPHONE SCREEN WHICH IS FINE. BUT WHEN I HANG UP, THE SCREEN REMAINS IN THE TELEPHONE SCREEN POSITON. I HAVE TO MANUALLY REACH OVER, FUMBLE AROUND TO FIND THE ICON TO RETURN IT TO THE ORIGINAL POSITION. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND A SAFETY PROBLEM AND CONCERN. IT HAPPENED EVERY TIME I MAKE A CALL AND I'M AFRAID THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

MY DAUGHTER DROVE MY CAR AND HIT A METAL MAIL BOX (6X6 POLE, HOLDING 3 MAIL BOXES) AT 35 TO 40 MPH, SHE HIT ALMOST DEAD CENTER. THE SEAT BELT DIDN'T STOP HER FROM HITTING HER HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. MY DAUGHTER SUFFERED A CONCUSSION, NECK AND BACK PAIN, ONE OF HER EYES VISION IS AFFECTED. SHE WAS DRIVING IN OUR STREET 3 HOUSES DOWN FROM OUR HOUSE, STREET IS WINDING AND NOT LIGHTED.

THERE IS AN AUTOMATIC LOCK FEATURE ON THIS VEHICLE. IF THE KEY IS LEFT IN THE CAR, THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS TO REMAIN UNLOCKED. ON MAY 5TH 2015, THIS FEATURE MALFUNCTIONED AND LOCKED ALL DOORS.

TRANSMISSION ISSUES. RATTLING UNDER THE CHASSIS THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE GRABS THE DRIVE SHAFT AND SHAKES IT WHEN THE CLUTCH IS PUSHED AT SLOW SPEEDS IE MOVING UP AT A STOP SIGN, IN TRAFFIC ETC. DEFECTIVE DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL WAS FOUND AFTER THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME MY CLAIMS WERE UP TO FACTORY STANDARDS. AFTER TAKING APART THE TRANSMISSION (AT LESS THAT 10K MILES) GEARS 1-4 WERE FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE AS WELL. THE VEHICLE STILL HAS SHIFTING ISSUES AND A LOUD RATTLE. I ROAD TESTED A 2015 MANUAL ATS AND IT DROVE SMOOTH WITH NO RATTLES. I WAS TOLD THE 2015 WOULD DRIVE THE SAME ONCE IT HIT 10K MILES LIKE MINE WHICH IS A RIDICULOUS STATEMENT. VEHICLE HAS ALSO SHUT OFF WHILE IN TRAFFIC, AND UPON RESTARTING THE VEHICLE I NO LONGER HAD AN POWER STEERING. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE FOR MYSELF OR MY CHILDREN. THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF ISSUES WITH THE 2013-2014 MANUAL ATS AND RECORDS OF GM BUY BACKS. THE SERVICE MANAGER AGREES THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE AND RECOMMENDED I CALL GM TO INITIATE A BUY BACK. BUT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT INSISTS THIS IS FACTORY STANDARD AND REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO HER PARENTS HOUSE GOING UP A INCLINE AND THE VEHICLE COULDN'T PULL THE HILL SLOWED DOWN TO APPROX. 20MPH BUMPED AND SHOOK AS IT WENT UP THE HILL. WHEN SHE GOT OUT OF THE CAR AT HER PARENTS HOUSE YOU COULD SMELL SOMETHING LIKE BURNT TRANSMISSION OR SOMETHING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON TWO OTHER OCCASIONS AND THE 1ST INSTANCE CADILLAC DEALER SAID THE COMPUTER TO THE TRANSMISSION DUMPED ITS PROGRAM AND THEY WENT IN AND REPROGRAMMED THE TRANSMISSION BUT IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING. I WILL BE TAKING IT BACK IN AFTER CHRISTMAS. HYDROPLANING IS ALSO A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. THIS CAR ALSO DOESN'T LIKE TO STAY IN A LANE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I FEEL THIS CAR ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE AND WILL BE LOOKING FOR AN ATTORNEY TO DEEM IT AS A LEMON. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2013 CADILLAC ATS IN EARLY 2013. IN FIRST MONTH, IT NEEDED 3 BATTERY JUMPS. IT ALSO HAS A PROBLEM WITH MOVING FROM DRIVE INTO PARK. THIS IS UNDER RECALL AS IS A SEATBELT ISSUE I BELIEVE. I HAVE HAD 2 ACCIDENTS. 1 ON A VERY BUSY CRAWLING ROAD WISCONSIN AVE, DC ON A BUSY SAT AFTERNOON IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC WHEN I STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND THE FORCE OF MY MOVEMENT CAUSED THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. WEIRD, BUT CONFUSING. I HAD A SIMILAR EPISODE THIS PAST WEEK LEAVING MY HOME. I WAS STOPPED IN THE STREET BEHIND MY SON'S TRUCK. HE STARTED TO MOVE AND I PLOWED INTO HIM CAUSING MASSIVE DAMAGE TO THE CADILLAC AND SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO HIS TRUCK AS WELL, A VERY LATE MODEL CHEVY. I WAS NOT ON THE PHONE OR THE BRAKE OR CHANGING THE RADIO OR IN ANY WAY DISTRACTED DURING THESE EPISODES. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. IT HAS 8000 MILES ON IT IN ABOUT 18 MONTHS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND THE CAR TURNED COMPLETELY OFF AND THEN I PANICKED, HIT THE CLUTCH, PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, AND HIT THE START BUTTON TWICE TO RESTART THE CAR. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND AN ISSUE AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR 2.2 MILES. THEY ADVISED ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR AND RISK MY SAFETY ON THE ROAD. THE CONSUMER STATED HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP THREE TIMES, FOR THE SAME ISSUE.

SINCE JUNE 2013, THE CADILLAC ATS HAS BEEN MAKING A VIBRATION FEELING. THE VIBRATION IS UNKNOWN, IT HAS BEEN TO SERVICE TWICE. FIRST I WAS SUGGESTED TO TRY A DIFFERENT GAS (PREMIUM GAS). THE PROBLEM CONTINUED TO OCCUR, SO I SWITCHED BACK TO REGULAR GAS. THEN RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT AND THAT PROBLEM WAS FIXED. BUT I ALSO ASKED SERVICE TO DRIVE VEHICLE AROUND WHILE IN THE SHOP TO FIGURE OUT THE OCCURRING VIBRATION ISSUE. SERVICE TOLD ME ALL THE CADILLAC ATS'S CARS DO THE SAME THING AND THAT THATS HOW THEY WERE MANUFACTURED, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. I DON'T WANT TO INSERT A DIFFERENT GAS TYPE IF THE CAR IS SUPPOSE TO TAKE REGULAR UNLEADED. (I BOUGHT CAR BECAUSE IT IS GAS SAVER). AS A CUSTOMER I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE THE GAS AND SPEND MORE THAN I ALREADY AM MONTHLY IF THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING PROPERLY. NOR SHOULD I HAVE TO KEEP TAKING IT IN FOR RECALLS AND PAYING FOR A CAR ($552 PER MONTH) IF IT WAS NOT MANUFACTURED CORRECTLY IN THE FIRST PLACE.

JUST PRIOR TO MAKING A COMPLETE STOP, THE CAR BEGAN TO STALL, AND AGAIN TURNED OFF. THIS TIME JUST AFTER MAKING A STOP. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CADILLAC DEALER. THEY ARE CURRENTLY CHECKING INTO THE ISSUE AND ALLEGE THIS IS NOT A COMMON OCCURRENCE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I HOPE THEY FIND THE PROBLEM. HISTORICALLY THE DEALER HAS REPROGRAMMED THE ECM. THE CAR HAS RECEIVED ALL OF ITS PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP NAMED WILLIAMSON CADILLAC IN SOUTH, FLORIDA. THE CAR HAS HAD ROUGH IDLE SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED, AND I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL, AND NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT EACH TIME THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP TO THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE DEPARTMENT. MOREOVER, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE MOTOR MOUNTS ARE LIQUID MOTOR MOUNTS, AND THAT THE SHAKING IS AS A RESULT OF THE VIBRATION THAT OCCURS JUST AFTER STARTING THE CAR, BUT THIS IS NOT TRUE. THE ROUGH IDLE OCCURS ALL THE TIME, AND NOW IT HAS PROGRESSED TO COMPLETE ENGINE STALLING WHILE TURNING OR DECELERATION. THE CAR IN QUESTION HAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, ALSO IT ALSO JERKED AFTER IT WAS PLACED INTO GEAR DURING THE MOST RECENT SITUATION / COMPLAINT. *TR

I OWN A 2013 CADILLAC ATS 2.0T WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION (6MT). MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED UNEXPECTEDLY MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE IT IS BEING DRIVEN. LAST TIME WAS AT ABOUT 30MPH WHILE I WAS COMING UP TO A LIGHT AND IT IS SCARY, ESPECIALLY WHEN PEOPLE AROUND YOU START BEEPING AND YELLING. WHEN IT HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE TURNED OFF THEN ON AGAIN, SO IT ISN'T A QUICK THING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I WENT ONLINE AND THERE ARE MULTIPLE VIDEOS AND COMPLAINTS OF THE VERY ISSUE. GM KNOWS THIS IS HAPPENING AND THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS JUST AS BAD AS THE IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE, AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT (I ALMOST DID A FEW TIMES). I HAVE A CASE OPEN WITH GM AND I WANT MY MONEY BACK FOR THIS CAR. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP AT LEAST 6 TIMES IN THE YEAR THAT I'VE HAD IT. *TR

THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON, STABILITRAK, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATE MY DASHBOARD. IT HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES. EACH TIME THE DEALER HAS FOUND BASICALLY NOTHING WRONG, JUST REPLACED A SPARK PLUG EACH TIME, CHANGED THE OIL, AND CLEARED THE CODES. THE CAR HAS STALLED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY SOMEONE BECAUSE A LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND MY CAR WAS STALLED. PRIOR TO IT STALLING IT VIOLENTLY SHAKES, WHICH IS JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE ROUGH THAN THE CONSTANT SHAKING IT ALWAYS DOES. ALSO RECENTLY IT HAS BEEN HAVING TROUBLE STARTING. EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE RELATED AND IS GETTING WORSE. THE DEALER EXTENDED MY WARRANTY TO ALMOST 90,000 MILES BUT I FEEL UNSAFE IN THIS CAR BECAUSE OF ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT IT HAS AND ALL THE NEW PROBLEMS THAT KEEP COMING UP. *TR

TURNED CAR OFF. STARTED 5 MINS LATER MOVED JUST A COUPLE MILES AND HOUR AND POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WENT OUT. TURNED CAR OFF AND WORKED AFTER THAT. *TR

I TURNED THE CAR OFF IN MY DRIVEWAY. WHEN I STARTED IT THE POWER STEERING DIDN'T WORK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CADILLAC ATS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A THREE TO FOUR SECOND LAG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 325 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 8,100.

THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ACTIVATED WHILE AT FREEWAY SPEED, HOWEVER THERE WERE NO CARS OR OBSTRUCTIONS AHEAD OF MY CAR. THE BRAKES WERE AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED, THE COLLISION WARNING APPEARED ON THE HUD, AND THE CAR RAPIDLY DECELERATED. HAD THERE BEEN A VEHICLE BEHIND ME, THERE WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS COLLISION. I HAD JUST PASSED A SEMI-TRUCK AND THOUGHT MAYBE A REFLECTION FROM THE TRUCK MAY HAVE ACTIVATED THE SYSTEM, BUT I HAD COMPLETED THE PASSING MANEUVER BEFORE THE CAR BRAKING ACTIVATED. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER ON 4/4 BUT THEY REPORTED NO PROBLEMS WITH THE SYSTEM. THIS SEEMS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE SITTING IN NEUTRAL, WAITING AT A RED LIGHT. THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS RUNNING. THE ENGINE RUNS SO QUIETLY THAT FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TELL THE ENGINE HAD SHUT OFF IF THE A/C HAD NOT STOPPED BLOWING. I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND AN ALERT CAME ON THE DASH SCREEN STATING: SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE. I WAS APPROXIMATELY 3/4 OF A MILE FROM MY HOME COMING DOWNHILL ON A QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD STREET SO I CAREFULLY DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND PARKED IN THE GARAGE WHILE I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT MY LOCAL CADILLAC DEALERSHIP. HE TOLD ME THE POWER STEERING IS CONTROLLED BY THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MAY HAVE GLITCHED WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND NOT BEEN ACTIVATED. HE SAID I COULD RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER 30 SECONDS AND THE POWER STEERING SHOULD FUNCTION PROPERLY AGAIN. HE TOLD ME IF THERE IS AN ISSUE I CAN HAVE GM TOW THE VEHICLE IN, OR IF THE POWER STEERING BEGINS TO FUNCTION AGAIN I CAN DRIVE IT IN TO HAVE IT SERVICED. ONCE I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE THE POWER STEERING WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. I WILL BE HAVING CADILLAC LOOK AT THE VEHICLE THIS AFTERNOON. *TR

ON FEBRUARY 22ND AND 27TH 2014, WHILE TRAVELING AT 75MPH THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SLAMMED THE BRAKES ON THEN RELEASED. I THOUGHT THE SYSTEM HAD MISS-READ THE SHADOW OF AN OVERPASS AS A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE THAT WAS THE ONLY THING IN SIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES LOCKED, THERE WERE NO VEHICLES PRESENT. ROADS WERE DRY. IT WAS REPORTED TO CADILLAC VIA THEIR 800 NUMBER AND THEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 MARCH 2014,FOR ANALYSIS. THE DEALER IMPLEMENTED AN UPDATE TO THE ACTIVE SAFETY CONTROL MODULE. CADILLAC STATED THEY WOULD SEND AN E-MAIL TO MY DEALER ABOUT THE PROBLEM, BUT DEALER STATED THEY NEVER RECEIVED THE E-MAIL. NO FURTHER PROBLEM NOTED UNTIL 1 APRIL 2014, FOUR WEEKS LATER, DURING A TRIP THE SAME ACTION HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN A MILE OF TRAVEL. BRAKES WERE ABRUPTLY APPLIED, RED SCREEN ON DASH WITH CRASH IMMANENT. AGAIN AT 70MPH AND NO BRIDGES OR OTHER VEHICLES IN PATH. THE ROAD CONDITION WAS WET. THIS IS A LARGE SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME IF THE BREAKS SHOULD LOCK AT 70+ MPH AND NOT RELEASE AND I HAVE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. *TR

2013 CADILLAC ATS 6MT STALLS WHEN DECELERATING WITH AN ENSUING LOSS OF POWER STEERING. CADILLAC HAS COME UP WITH A SOFTWARE FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. SOFTWARE WRITTEN TO PROTECT THE FLYWHEEL WAS MODIFIED TO ELIMINATE THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE AUTOMATIC COLLISION AVOIDANCE BRAKING SYSTEM ACTIVATED AT FREEWAY SPEEDS WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR FOR OVER A MILE AND FULLY SLAMMED THE BRAKES AND FLASHED THE HEADS UP DISPLAY COLLISION WARNING. THIS SYSTEM FAILED MULTIPLE WAYS, ONE IT THOUGHT THERE WAS AN EMINENT COLLISION WHEN THERE WASN'T AND TWO IT ISN'T SUPPOSED TO APPLY BRAKES AT THOSE SPEEDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE MOST RECENT WAS AFTER A "FIX" BY THE DEALER. IF THERE HAD BEEN AN 18 WHEELER BEHIND ME WHEN THE CAR SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES THAT COULDN'T STOP AS FAST AS MY CAR THERE WOULD'VE BEEN AN ACCIDENT WITH POSSIBLE FATALITY. *TR

HELLO, I HAVE A 2013 CADILLAC ATS 2.0T AWD AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THE CAR STALLING AND IDLING ROUGHLY. IT HAS STALLED ON MY THREE TIMES ALREADY SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN OCTOBER, AND I HAVE TAKEN IT IN FOR SERVICE ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS FOR THAT SAME ISSUE. EACH TIME THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR THREE DAYS TO TRY AND REPLICATE THE ISSUE WITH NO ANSWERS FOR ME EXCEPT "MAKE SURE YOU BRING IT IN NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS". I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR ESPECIALLY SINCE THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS DRIVING 25MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, AND I NARROWLY AVOIDED GETTING REAR-ENDED. *TR

I HAVE EXPERIENCED AN INTERMITTENT SHUDDER/JERKINESS IN THE PAST MONTH WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT LOW SPEEDS. TODAY, WHILE SLOWING AND TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND I COASTED THE VEHICLE INTO A PARKING SPACE AND STOPPED. I TURNED ON THE IGNITION AND THE CAR STARTED IMMEDIATELY. WHEN I GOT HOME I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR ISSUES AND FOUND THIS THREAD ON THE CADILLAC FORUMS OF OTHERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS: HTTP://WWW.CADILLACFORUMS.COM/FORUMS/CADILLAC-ATS-TECHNICAL-DISCUSSION-FORUM/391273-2013-6-SPEED-MANUAL-STALLING-AFFECTED.HTML I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND SPOKE WITH [XXX] IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. HE SAID THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THE SHUDDER AT LOW SPEEDS AND HAVE A FIX FOR THAT PROBLEM. HE SAID THAT THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY STALLING. I TOLD HIM THAT HE COULD READ ABOUT IT ON THE FORUM ABOVE. HE ASKED ME TO BRING MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE SOME TRANSMISSION PARTS REPLACED. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS MIGHT ONLY RESOLVE THE JERKING, BUT NOT THE STALLING, WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

CAR IDLES BADLY MAY COME CLOSE TO STALLING AT TIMES. IT SHUTTERS AT WARM UP IN COLD WEATHER. WHAT IS SAD IS GM WELL AWARE AND WILL NOT FIX IT. I AM STUCK WITH IT ACCORDING TO DEALERS I HAVE VISITED. *TR

WHEN COASTING TO COME TO A STOP THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL STALL. THE VEHICLE EITHER DOESN'T ATTEMPT TO IDLE AT ALL ONCE THE CLUTCH HAS BEEN DEPRESSED, OR IT SEEMS TO GET TO A LOWER RPM THAN NORMAL (<500RPM) AND THEN THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF, VERY ABRUPTLY. *TR

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COMING TO A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN WITH THE CAR IN EITHER NEUTRAL OR THE CLUTCH PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN, THE VEHICLE WILL STALL. THE STALL IS NOT ABRUPT BUT VERY SUBTLE. THE CAR DOES NOT JERK FORWARD BUT JUST DIES WITHOUT THE DRIVER KNOWING. CANNOT TELL THAT THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED UNTIL I TRY TO RE-ENGAGE GEAR AND PRESS THE GAS. ALWAYS HAPPENS AT UNDER 5 MPH, RIGHT BEFORE THE CAR HAS COME TO A STOP OR IS ROLLING TO A STOP WITH THE CAR IN NEUTRAL OR CLUTCH PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN. *TR

DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTED LOSING SPEED AND IT WOULD NOT LET ME ACCELERATE. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER. ONCE I GOT TO THE SHOULDER THE CAR IDLED FOR A FEW SECONDS BEFORE THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AGAIN AND DRIVE ABOUT ANOTHER MILE AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. WE WERE ABOUT 1 MILE FROM A GM CAR DEALERSHIP AND WE MANAGED TO GET THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, BUT IT STALLED 3 TIMES ON THE WAY (ONCE ON A 2 LANE BRIDGE). THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULDN'T WORK ON CADILLACS, SO WE HAD IT TOWED TO A CADILLAC DEALERSHIP (THE CAR DIED AGAIN WHILE THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER WAS TRYING TO LOAD IT). THEY HAVE DRIVEN IT OVER 200 MILES AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY DID A COMPUTER UPDATE AND ARE RETURNING THE CAR TO ME AND SAID THAT THEY ARE NOT CONFIDENT THE UPDATE WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. IT DID NOT THROW ANY WARNING LIGHTS AND THE DEALER SAID THEY DIDN'T SEE ANY CODES. WE WERE DOING 70 DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND IF THERE HADN'T BEEN A PLACE TO PULL OVER, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED BY AN 18 WHEELER. THIS IS NOT A MANUAL TRANSMISSION (I'VE SEEN REPORTS OF MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS STALLING). THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. *TR

CRUISING DOWN A HILL PROBABLY IN NEUTRAL, CAR STALLED SILENTLY WITH NO BUCKING OR NOISE, JUST DIED. NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO START THE CAR WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. AFTER EASILY 15 ATTEMPTS AND APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES THE CAR STARTED BUT WAS WITH FAMILY, AT NIGHT ON DARK TWISTY AND HILLY ROAD AND DID NOT FEEL CONFIDENT TO DRIVE IT. HAD IT TOWED ULTIMATELY FOR CADILLAC SERVICE. IN SHOP FOR MORE THAN A WEEK, TECH COULD NOT FIND OR DUPLICATE PROBLEM. HAPPENED AGAIN A WEEK OR SO LATER, IN NEUTRAL COMING TO A RED LIGHT, COMPLETE SILENT STALL, AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE CAR STARTED AND I DROVE BACK TO CADILLAC SERVICE. AGAIN NO PROBLEM FOUND AFTER IN SHOP A FEW DAYS. ON MY WAY HOME IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT A RED LIGHT BUT STARTED ON FIRST. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING CAR, ESPECIALLY WITH FAMILY IN IT WHICH I HAVEN'T DONE RECENTLY. FIRST STALL PARTICULARLY WAS IN A DANGEROUS PLACE AND POLICE WOULD NOT LET CAR STAY ON ROAD AND WE PUSHED IT OFF THE MAJOR ROAD. UNEXPECTEDNESS AND PERHAPS INABILITY TO RESTART QUICKLY ARE FRIGHTENING AND A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

I HAVE TWO ISSUES TO REPORT THAT MAY BE A SAFETY CONCERN: 1) THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN DRIVING IN WET CONDITIONS (RAIN/SNOW) WHERE I WILL GET A 'POWER STEERING FAILURE' WARNING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE POWER STEERING DOES ONE OF TWO THINGS. IT EITHER ALMOST LOCKS UP AND BECOMES EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL, OR IT WILL STILL MOVE EASILY, BUT IT WON'T AUTO CENTER WHEN MAKING TURNS. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A BAD STEERING ANGLE SENSOR. THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR BUT THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED AND NOW THAT IT'S SNOWING IT'S HAPPENING MORE AND MORE CONSISTENTLY. 2) THERE HAVE BEEN 3 CASES WHERE I WAS DRIVING AND COMING TO A STOP AND THE CAR WILL JUST RANDOMLY SHUT DOWN. I LOSE ALL ABILITY TO STEER (SINCE IT'S ELECTRIC STEERING) AND BRAKE. THIS STALL IS DIFFERENT THEN A STALL ASSOCIATED MISUSE OF THE CLUTCH. THE CLUTCH HAS BEEN PRESSED IN ALL THE WAY IN WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND THE CAR DOESN'T SHUTTER LIKE A CLUTCH STALL, JUST TOTALLY SHUTS DOWN QUIETLY. LUCKILY THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT IF THIS HAPPENS WHEN THERE ARE MULTIPLE CARS AROUND ME IT WILL BE DIFFICULTY TO AVOID ONE. *TR

SINCE BUYING THIS CADILLAC ATS 2013, 2.0T RWD MANUAL, VEHICLE NEW, THE ENGINE HAS STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. THE STALLING OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IDLING IN NEUTRAL (AT STOPLIGHTS, IN TRAFFIC). THE STALLING HAPPENS IN BOTH WARM AND COLD CONDITIONS. THE STALLING IS NOT LIKE NORMAL MANUAL TRANSMISSION STALLING WHERE THE VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD. THE STALLING IS SILENT. YOU DO NOT NOTICE THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED UNTIL YOU PUT THE CAR INTO GEAR AND ATTEMPT TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO A CADILLAC DEALERSHIP TO INSPECT THE ISSUE (LINDSAY CADILLAC OF ALEXANDRIA). THE TECHNICIANS WERE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE AND THERE WAS NO RESOLUTION. APPROXIMATE SERVICE DATE WAS 09/26/2013. *TR

WHILE DECELERATING TO MAKE VARIOUS TURNS OR STOP AT AN INTERSECTION THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. ALSO THE STEERING AND BRAKES BECOME HARD. ON ONE OCCASION WHILE MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY IT OCCURRED AGAIN, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO A VEHICLE THEN LOSE CONTROL. *TR

THE 6-SPEED MANUAL ATS HAS AN ISSUE WITH STALLING, USUALLY WHEN COASTING TO A STOP, AND LESS FREQUENTLY ON INITIAL ACCELERATION. IT IS NOT DUE TO POOR RELEASE PRACTICE WITH THE CLUTCH. THE CAR WILL DIE UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN COASTING, WHICH KILLS THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING, WHICH MAKES FOR AN UNSAFE SITUATION. THIS HAPPENS INFREQUENTLY, AND I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT COMBINATION OF THINGS LEADS TO THE STALL. I HAVE CHANGED THE WAY I DRIVE THE CAR IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE COASTING OR USING THE TRANSMISSION FOR DECELERATION. THIS HELPS, BUT THERE ARE STILL TIMES WHEN I GET SURPRISED AT AN INTERSECTION BY THE CAR BEING DEAD WHEN I'M READY TO ACCELERATE. IT IS A VERY QUIET CAR, ESPECIALLY AT IDLE, SO IF I'M WATCHING TRAFFIC AND NOT THE DASH, IT CAN DIE AND I DON'T KNOW IT UNTIL I HIT THE GAS AGAIN. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS A 6-SPEED MANUAL...TWICE NOW IN THE LAST MONTH IT HAS STALLED AT A COMPLETE STOP EVEN THE CLUTCH IS FULLY DEPRESSED. *TR

WHEN COASTING TO A STOP LIGHT, OR A STOP SIGN, THE CAR WILL OCCASIONALLY STALL FOR NO REASON. I DRIVE A STICK SHIFT, AND WILL MOVE THE SHIFTER INTO NEUTRAL AS I AM COMING TO A STOP, AND ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE CAR HAS JUST STALLED OUT AND I LOSE ALL POWER STEERING AND ELECTRONIC BRAKE ASSISTANCE, WHICH MAKES STOPPING THE CAR MORE DIFFICULT. THIS ISSUE HAS ALSO OCCURRED A FEW TIMES WHEN ACTIVELY DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. I WILL GET A MESSAGE ON MY DIC SAYING THAT MY POWER STEERING NEEDS TO BE SERVICED, AND SHORTLY AFTER THE CAR STALLS. *TR

I WAS PULLING IN TO A PARKING SPOT BEHIND A CAR AT A VERY LOW SPEED WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKES FOR THE CAR TO STOP, INSTEAD IT ACCELERATED AND SMASHED IN TO A CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I TRIED PRESSING THE BRAKES HARDER IN ORDER TO AVOID THE IMPACT AND THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND. *TR

THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL ARE SO CLOSE TOGETHER THAT WHEN BRAKING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC IT IS POSSIBLE TO DEPRESS THE GAS PEDAL WHILE BRAKING RESULTING IN AN ENGINE SURGE CONDITION. THIS ONLY HAPPENS IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC OR WHEN STOPPING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. *TR

VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS WITH THE HID OPTION DO NOT ALWAYS ALIGN PROPERLY CAUSING ONE SIDE, EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT ON OCCASION TO AIM HIGHER THAN THE OTHER. THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING WHEN THE VEHICLE HEADLIGHT SELECTION IS IN THE AUTO MODE AND THE KEY FOB OR IGNITION BUTTON IS USED. THIS HAS BECOME A NUISANCE BECAUSE I MUST CONSTANTLY PARK BY A WALL TO MAKE SURE THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE ALIGNED PROPERLY BEFORE DRIVING OFF AND BLINDING ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE CALIBRATION CYCLE SEEMS TO BE FAULTY AND I HAVE BEEN TO TWO DEALERS WITH NO RESOLVE. I AM ALSO WORKING WITH CADILLAC CUSTOMER SERVICE AND AM HOPING FOR A QUICK SOLUTION. THIS ISSUE MAY BLIND ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND I MUST STOP AND RESTART THE CAR NUMEROUS TIMES TO GET THE HEADLIGHT CYCLE TO ALIGN THE LIGHTS. *TR

WHEN COASTING TO COME TO A STOP THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL STALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT IN JANUARY. THIS IS A 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION EQUIPPED VEHICLE, AND THE TRANSMISSION IS EITHER IN NEUTRAL OR THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS DEPRESSED SO THAT THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION ARE DECOUPLED. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO WATCH THE TACHOMETER WHEN IT HAS STALLED TWICE, AND IT SEEMS TO GET TO A LOWER RPM THAN NORMAL (<500RPM) AND THEN THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF, VERY ABRUPTLY. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN SLOWING TO TAKE A TURN WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL DEPRESSED, WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET BACK STARTED AS YOU ARE TRYING TO DRIVE AND NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER, AND THEY HAVE TRIED TO DIAGNOSE IT, HOWEVER NO FIX HAS HAPPENED. IT WILL NORMALLY STALL ABOUT ONCE EVERY WEEK OR SO, IT IS VERY INTERMITTENT AND SEEMS MORE OFTEN WITH A HIGHER LOAD ON THE ENGINE (HOT DAYS, A/C RUNNING, ETC...). THE DEALER WENT AS FAR AS TO BLAME ME FOR STALLING THE VEHICLE, THEY SAID I DIDN'T DISENGAGE THE CLUTCH AT A HIGH ENOUGH RPM WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNTRUE AND REGARDLESS THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL AND I WAS COASTING TO A STOP (THEREFORE IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO STALL THE VEHICLE IN GEAR). I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE, THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS PEOPLE ON FORUMS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

WHEN COASTING TO COME TO A STOP THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL STALL/TURN OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT IN JUNE. THIS IS A 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION EQUIPPED VEHICLE, AND THE TRANSMISSION IS EITHER IN NEUTRAL OR THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS DEPRESSED SO THAT THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION ARE DECOUPLED. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO WATCH THE TACHOMETER WHEN IT HAS STALLED TWICE, AND THEN THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF, VERY ABRUPTLY (NO SHAKING, OR NOISE). IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN SLOWING TO TAKE A TURN WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL DEPRESSED, WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET BACK STARTED AS YOU ARE TRYING TO DRIVE AND NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT (PLUS THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS). I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER, AND THEY HAVE TRIED TO DIAGNOSE IT, HOWEVER NO FIX HAS HAPPENED. IT WILL NORMALLY STALL ABOUT ONCE EVERY WEEK OR SO, IT IS VERY INTERMITTENT. THE DEALER WENT AS FAR AS TO BLAME ME FOR STALLING THE VEHICLE, THEY SAID I DIDN'T DISENGAGE THE CLUTCH AT A HIGH ENOUGH RPM WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNTRUE AND REGARDLESS THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL AND I WAS COASTING TO A STOP (THEREFORE IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO STALL THE VEHICLE IN GEAR). I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE, THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS PEOPLE ON FORUMS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN THE LEMON PROCESS WITH THE BBB AUTOLINE PROGRAM AS THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. DEALER/GM CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. *TR

I HAVE A 2013 ATS 6 SPEED . A COUPLE WEEKS AFTER I GOT IT WILL STALL WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A COMPLETE STOP. IT STOPPED FOR ABOUT A MONTH THEN IT CONTINUED AGAIN. IT WOULD HAPPEN AS OFTEN AS TWICE A WEEK TO A COUPLE TIMES A MONTH. MY CAR NOW HAS OVER 3K MILES AND IT STILL HAPPENS. I NOTICED I HAS NOT BEEN AS FREQUENT AS PREVIOUS MONTHS BUT IT STILL HAPPENS ONCE IN A WHILE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAD ATS IT STALLS WITHOUT WARNING OR REASON. IT STALLS MOSTLY WHEN IN NEUTRAL, LIKE WHEN SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, OR PULLING INTO A PARKING PLACE. IT ALSO STALLS WHEN IN FIRST OR SECOND GEAR,LIKE WHEN TURNING A CORNER. I AM NOT PULLING THE CLUTCH OUT TOO SOON AND HENCE STALLING THE CAR MYSELF, IT DOES IT ALL BY ITSELF! THE CAR GIVES NO WARNING SHAKE OR NOISE, IT SIMPLY IS OFF, OFTEN WITHOUT MY KNOWING IT IS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY BRAND NEW ATS SINCE THE SECOND DAY OF HAVING IT, AND HAS EVER SINCE, APPROXIMATELY 7 WEEKS NOW. IT OCCURS WITH THE GAS TANK FULL, ALMOST EMPTY, AND IN BETWEEN. IT OCCURS ON FLAT STREETS, AND MAYBE AT AN INCLINE. IT OCCURS WHEN COLD IN THE MORNING, AND AFTER HOURS OF DRIVING. IT OCCURS DAY AND NIGHT, WITH AND WITHOUT PASSENGERS. THE DEALER HAS HAD THE CAR IN TWICE TO INVESTIGATE, WITH NO LUCK. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! *TR

VEHICLE QUIETLY STALLS AND HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE LESS THAN A MONTH AGO. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY BASICALLY JUST SAY IT IS DESIGNED TO STALL IN CERTAIN INSTANCES WHICH I BELIEVE IS JUST NONSENSE AND UNSAFE. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO OTHER ATS OWNERS SO I KNOW THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS AND UNSAFE ISSUE WITH THE 6SPD ATS. *TR

VEHICLE TURNS OFF WHEN IN NEUTRAL APPROACHING TO STOP. THIS IS NOT FROM IMPROPER FOOT WORK ON THE CLUTCH. THE VEHICLE IS IN NEUTRAL. IT HAS HAPPENED OVER 13 TIMES SINCE VEHICLE PURCHASED ON 7/26/2013 (FIRST INCIDENT ON DATE OF PURCHASE). THE VEHICLE WILL TURN ON IMMEDIATELY AFTER. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES AND TWICE THEY KEPT IT FOR A WEEK. THE PROBLEM DID NOT DUPLICATE WITH THE DEALERSHIP. ON THE THIRD VISIT THEY REPLACED THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. FIVE DAYS AFTER PICKING IT UP AFTER THEY REPLACED THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT HAS HAPPENED AT BUSY INTERSECTIONS AND IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

2.5 LITER ENGINE ON MY 2013 CADILLAC ATS SHAKES WHILE SITTING AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. GM UPDATED THE SOFTWARE THREE TIMES ON A RECALL BUT NOW ADVISED THAT THE ENGINE SHAKING IN NORMAL AND THEY CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. *TR

VEHICLE STALLED QUIETLY WHEN COMING TO STOP WITH VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND/OR CLUTCH DEPRESSED. I SAY QUIETLY BECAUSE I DID NOT HEAR OR FEEL IT SHUT OFF. (DIFFERENT FROM STALLING VEHICLE DUE TO IMPROPER FOOT WORK ON THE CLUTCH) WHEN I WENT TO TURN LEFT I REALIZED IT WAS DEAD. VEHICLE DID RESTART IMMEDIATELY. THIS HAS HAPPENED 6 - 10 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. MOST RECENTLY THE POWER STEERING RACK FAILED TO TURN BACK ON AT RESTART. DEALER SERVICED STEERING CONTROLLER PER TSB. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE RANDOM STALLING IN A 10 MILE TEST DRIVE AS IT ONLY HAPPENS TO ME ONLY ONCE A WEEK OR TWO. THIS COULD BE MORE DANGEROUS IF IT DID NOT RESTART AND I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION OR MOVING.

I HAVE THE 2013 ATS 2.0 TURBO AND I HAD A FEW ISSUES WITH IT.THE FIRST IS STEERING,SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE POWER FAILURE, ITS THE ONLY NEW CAR I OWNED WHEN THE CAR IS OFF THE WHEEL TURNS COMPLETELY.ALSO PULLS TO RIGHT.OTHER ISSUE I GET BANGING NOISE WHEN PUT IN REVERSE,AND A FEW TIMES SOUNDED LIKE TRANS MAKING RACE NOISE.THE CUE SYSTEM IS A JOKE,WHEN MY TRIAL FOR XM RAN OUT I TRIED TO LISTEN TO FM RDI AND THAT'S A JOKE,I CANT LISTEN TO ONE SONG,THERE'S STATIC EIGHTY PERCENT OF TIMES.OTHER ISSUES RIDE IS HORRIBLE RIDES LIKE A TRANS AM AND SHAKES WHEN HIT BUMPS.AFTER COMING OUT OF A ACURA AND HONDA I NOW KNOW WHY I STAYED AWAY FROM GM.OH FORGOT THE ENGINE SHAKES AT IDLE FEELS LIKE STALL,THEN REVS UP.ALL THE DEALER DOES IS SAYS MEETS DESIGNED FUNCTION.I ASK MYSELF A CAR THIS EXPENSIVE IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE CRAP. *TR

RIGHT TURN FROM STOP ONTO MAJOR 6-LANE HIGHWAY; NO POWER TO ENGINE AFTER ENGAGEMENT OF ACCELERATOR; ACTED AS THOUGH NOT IN-DRIVE GEAR; TACHOMETER REVED PAST 6K; FOOT OFF OF PEDAL; TRANSMISSION ENGAGED; VERY SLOW RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATION; EVASIVE ACTION BY OTHER DRIVERS FOLLOWING; NO REPLICATION BY DEALER AFTER 4-DAYS OF TESTING; RETURNED VEHICLE TO OWNER WITHOUT EXPLANATION OF PROBLEM. *TR

2.5 LITER ENGINE AT STOP ENGINE SHAKES FOR NO REASON. AS USUAL TAKE TO DEALER AND CAN'T FIND ISSUE WITHOUT A CODE. NOW AT 2572 MILES STILL SHAKES AND DEALER SAYS THAT ALL ATS DO THIS SO LIVE WITH IT. I SAY THAT THIS ATS BY GM. NEEDS TO TAKE THESE ISSUES SERIOUSLY AS THIS WILL HURT THE SALES OF A REALLY COOL CAR. IS THERE SOMEONE THAT CAN GET THE CEO OF CADILLACS ATTENTION THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO PAID OVER 35K. WHEN I HAVE BRAND NEW KIA THAT HAS A 4 CYCL ENGINE WITH NO ISSUES. COME ON GM. LETS GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED I HAVE ALREADY FILE A COMPLAINT TO GM. BUT NO RESPONSE PER USUAL. NO WONDER WE BY NON AMERICAN CARS.I HAVE WAITED 13 YEARS TO GET A NEW CAR AND I THOUGHT I GIVE THE ATS A TRY. WHAT ASHAME THAT SUCH A COOL CAR THAT THIS ENGINE RUINS THE GREAT FEELING TO OWN A AMERICAN CAR. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US. O BY THE WAY THE DEALER IS HILL CADILLAC IN NEWTOWN. EDGEMONT PA. ANY OTHER ATS CUSTOMERS HAVE SAME ISSUES. I SEE ON CADILLAC FORUM THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF FRUSTRATION ABOUT LACK OF A FIX. *TR

ROUGH IDLE WHEN IN DRIVE AND STOPPED AT LIGHT (ALWAYS), I DID BRING IT IN FOR SERVICE FOR THE ROUGH IDLE AND DEALERSHIP STATED NOTHING SHOWED UP ON COMPUTER SO THEY WERE UNABLE TO CORRECT PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT EXPERIENCED LOSS OF POWER STEERING. MESSAGE IN THE DIC INDICATED "SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE". UPON RESTART OF ENGINE THE POWER STEERING BEGAN TO WORK AGAIN. DEALER SAW C0545 STEERING WHEEL TORQUE SENSOR FAULT, DEALER NOTES INDICATE THAT THE CONNECTOR WAS CHECKED AND WAS OK. ALSO CHECKED EBCM SOFTWARE, WHICH WAS UP TO DATE. NOTHING FURTHER WAS DONE, NO PARTS UPDATED OR REPLACED. I RECEIVED THE SAME DIC MESSAGE ~4 TIMES IN THE PAST 3 WEEKS WITHOUT THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING PRIOR TO THIS EVENT WHICH PROMPTED A VISIT TO THE DEALER. *TR

WHEN TAKING A CORNER THE CAR APPEARED TO OVER STEER. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS ME SO I WENT TO TURN THE WHEEL TO CORRECT IT AND IT FELT SLUGGISH FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD. ALMOST INSTANTLY AFTER THAT A WARNING CAME UP ON THE DASH THAT INDICATED SOMETHING LIKE "SERVICE POWER STEERING, PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY". THE WARNING OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES IN A MATTER OF A COUPLE MILES BUT I DID NOT REALLY NOTICE ANY STEERING ISSUES THOSE TIMES. *TR
