In September, my vehicle would not start. I had it boosted and it started right up. The very same afternoon , it would not start and had it boosted. Drove it for 2 days without issue and on day 3 it would not start and boosting was unsuccessful. The vehicle could not be put in neutral and needed to be towed. The car spent several weeks at the dealer and I was told it was the battery which I replaced the key FOBS needed to be reprogrammed and then the wiring harness was chewed up. After several weeks at the show and over $1,000 later the car…

When it did turn on, my check engine light came on, I couldn't accelerate beyond 43 miles, my braking system was not working and a lot of featu…

I have a Cadillac XT4 with 33K miles. Last week my battery was dead. As a senior citizen who is a widow it is important that I not be stuck in a situation where I cannot get my car started which is why I am diligent with my maintenance. After I finally got my car to the dealership where I was charged $425 for the battery I started to investigate other owners complaints of this nature. Based on simple Google searches, It appears that the XT4 has alot of battery problems. This puts the driver in a dangerous situation. I called GM helpdesk wh…
