Owner report 11526608 · 2023-06-12 (June 12, 2023)
A few days ago while driving (45mph), my 22' 4BW dash lit up like hell and I lost power steering, brakes, went into limp mode. Restarted the vehicle, all was well. I did almost take out the Mini Cooper in front of me, with a 'Baby on Board' sticker. Don't even want to think about that. I have a service appointment scheduled for next week and I'm not driving the vehicle until then. Please review the following thread on the Blackwing forums where over 7 different people experience the same issue within 7 days of each other. https://www.cadillac…

Owner report 11543046 · 2023-09-06 (September 6, 2023)
While driving in normal street conditions, the dashboard lit up and all the lights came on. Traction control, stability control, check engine light, tire pressure, brake, ABS all lit up.

I noticed that steering became much more difficult and braking was extremely difficult. When coasting to a park, my car would not engage the e-brake unless I shut the car down at first and then re-started it. This is the second time th…

Owner report 11498610 · 2022-12-22 (December 22, 2022)
While driving at higher speeds the multiple CT4 vehicles that I have driven share steering issues. While driving straight, there are no issues. If following gentle bends in the highway to the RIGHT, randomly the vehicles will increase the force required to maintain the current ground track. This causes the vehicle to slightly pull away from the desired track to the left. It does NOT occur when steering to the left, only to the right. It feels as if the steering enters a different type of steering mode and eases the required steering wheel press…

Owner report 11567176 · 2024-01-23 (January 23, 2024)
The contact owns a 2022 Cadillac CT4. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60-65 MPH, the power steering and power brakes failed to operate as needed. The check engine and the crash warning lights were illuminated. The contact coasted to the side of the road while depressing the brake pedal with an excessive amount of force. The vehicle was stopped by bumping on a nearby curb. Once the vehicle was stopped, the contact turned off and restarted the vehicle and was able to regain power steering and power brakes functionality. The ch…
