The contact owns a 2014 Cadillac CTS. The contact stated while driving 25 mph, the contact heard a roaring noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and inspected the vehicle but did not find an issue with the vehicle. The contact was able to continue driving however, the abnormal noise was still heard while the contact was driving the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to a local dealer who inspected the vehicle and diagnosed a failure with the rear axle differential which needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

NHTSA ODI 11428845

Our mechanic told us that the differential is making a grinding sound and he add differential fluid, but said the problem would only get worse. The car only has 62k miles on it and it is VERY EXPENSIVE to have the differential replace/repaired. I feel that this is a defect of the car and should be recalled by Cadillac to have the differential replaced. For the differential to go bad at 60k miles is unacceptable and is terrible reliability.

NHTSA ODI 11428635

I brought my car to my trusted local mechanic, and he informed me that the noise I was hearing from the rear of my car was the differential. He also informed me that it was dangerous because it could lock up, causing my car to go into a skid and lose control. I did some due diligence on the internet and discovered it’s a common problem, and although it has been recalled on the sub model of the V sport, the standard CTS has not been recalled.

HEARD A WHINING NOISE COMING FROM THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE WHEN STEPPING ON THE ACCELORATOR, TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO GET A INSPECTION AND TURNS OUT THE ROLL PINS IN THE REAR-AXLE DIFFERENTIAL ARE CLOSE TO FRACTURING, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL IN THIS REGUARD TO 2014-15 CADILLAC CTS (V-SPORT) MODELS BUT NO OTHER CTS MODELS GET THE RECALL. I HAVE A 2014 CADILLAC CTS (LUXURY) SEDAN, HOPING THERE WILL BE A RECALL FOR ALL CTS MODELS IN REGARDS TO THE HUGE SAFETY ISSUE.

STARTING AROUND THE END OF FEBRUARY, MY 2014 CTS 3.6 AWD STARTED TO HAVE NOISE FROM THE REAR END WHILE DRIVING. THE NOISE BECOMES LOUDER IF I DRIVE FASTER AND THE CAR WOBBLES. I FEEL EXTREME UNSAFE AND HAVE VISITED INDIVIDUAL MECHANICS, AND MECHANICS TOLD ME THE ISSUE IS FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THEY SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS, AND CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THROUGH MY RESEARCH, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE COMMON AMONG THE CTS MODEL. HOWEVER, WHILE THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE CTS VSPORT, NO ACTIONS ARE TAKEN FOR OTHER VERSIONS OF CTS. FROM NHTSA COMPLAINT SITE, SEVERAL COMPLIANT CASES HAVE BEEN FILED FOR THE NON-SPORT CTS. THERE ARE OTHER CASES MENTIONED ACROSS THE INTERNET: HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/UCMIMOHFEPQ . THIS PROBLEM SOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY TO AVOID SAFETY RISKS. I BELIEVE THIS REAR DIFFERENTIAL ISSUE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE TO 1.GET REPLACEMENT PART AND SERVICE FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO FIX THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL ISSUE ON MY CAR AND GET REIMBURSEMENT FOR ALL COSTS 2.URGE THE MANUFACTURER TO PUT THE CTS MAKE ONTO THE RECALL LIST FOR SAFETY OF OTHER CTS OWNERS.

THERE HAVE BEEN MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2014 CADILLAC CTS 3RD GEN REAR DIFFERENTIAL GOING OUT AT WAY TO SOON. BEFORE THE 80K MILE MARK IN ALOT OF THESE CARS. AS EXPENSIVE AND RARE AS THIS PART IS, IT SHOULD NOT BE FAILING OR LEAKING SO SOON, AS IT IS THE MAIN PART THAT MOVES THE WHEELS IN A RWD CAR. I DID NOT BELIEVE IT AT FIRST BUT AFTER MY PURCHASE THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WENT BAD AT ONLY 75K MILES. I REPLACED IT, WITH A USED REAR DIFF THAT HAD ONLY 50K MILES, 10K MILES LATER, IT STARTS LEAKING AND GOING BAD AGAIN. EVEN USED ONES ARE A WHOPPING $1K AND UP. THIS PART SHOULD DEFINITELY BE INVESTIGATED AT ALL DEALERSHIPS NATIONWIDE, I ASSURE YOU THAT THERE IS AN UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF RECORDS OF THIS PART GOING BAD TO SOON.

BOUGHT THIS CAR AND AFTER BUYING IT, I HEARD A VIBRATION. FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE ROAD AND THEN THOUGHT IT WAS THE TIRES. I STARTED CHECKING AROUND FOR TIRES WHEN IT BECAME VERY NOISY SO I CALLED THE DEALER. HE FIRST SAID IT WAS THE POWER TRAIN FLUID NEEDED CHANGED BUT LATER CALLED AND SAID IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER. THIS CAR HAS LESS THA 40,000 MILES.

ON OCTOBER 27TH, I TOOK MY CAR TO THE SHOP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT MY REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS GOING OUT AND THERE WERE METAL SHAVINGS IN THE COMPARTMENT. THE SALES REP, NICK, SAID THERE WAS NOT A RECALL AND THE REPAIR WOULD BE $3300. THROUGH MY RESEARCH THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR "DEFECTIVE ROLLING PINS IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL THAT WERE FATIGUING AND FRACTURING AND EVENTUALLY CAUSING THE REAR END TO LOCK UP" BUT ONLY FOR THE 2014 CADILLAC CTS-V NOT THE REGULAR CTS. SINCE THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE, I HAD TO RENT A CAR ON 11/11 TO GET TO AND FROM WORK. AFTER CONVERSATIONS NOT RECEIVING ANY COOPERATION FROM CADILLAC CORPORATION, I WAS REFERRED TO GM CORPORATION. THEY NEGOTIATED A DISCOUNT, REDUCING THE COST FOR REPAIR FROM $3300 TO $1400. THE REPAIR WAS NOT COMPLETED UNTIL 12/1. THEY REDUCED THE PRICE BY ANOTHER $500 THE DAY I PICKED UP MY CAR. SO, I PAID $900 FOR THE REPAIR AND $517.17 FOR THE CAR RENTAL (TOTAL $1,417.17). ALTHOUGH THEY SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED THE COST OF THE REPAIR, I STILL BELIEVE THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND AN EXPENSE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED IN THE RECALL. THE REAR DIFFERENTIALS IN A CADILLAC CTS-V AND CTS ARE THE SAME. THE CTS-V HAS A STRONGER ENGINE, MEANING MORE TORQUE, WHICH MEANS THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IN THE NORMAL CTS SHOULD LAST EVEN LONGER. MY 2014 CADILLAC ONLY HAD 70,000 MILES; THEREFORE, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE OUT SO SOON. I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR ALL COSTS AND SEE THIS ITEM PUT ON THE RECALL LIST FOR THE SAFETY AND BENEFIT OF OTHER CTS OWNERS.

THIS COMPLAINT IS REGARDING AN ACTIVE RECALL ON MY CADILLAC...MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBERN192279370 AND NHTSA RECALL NUMBER20V038. I WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL AND IN MAY 2020 THAT THE PARTS TO FIX THE CAR WERE NOW AVAILABLE. I WENT TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR AND THE PARTS WERE NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND WERE ON BACK ORDER. AS OF THIS DATE THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS RECALL COULD POTENTIALLY BE A SERIOUS ISSUE, BUT GM SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE DRAGGING THEIR FEET ON FIXING THE PROBLEM! IT WILL SOON BE 5 MONTHS SINCE I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PARTS SUPPOSEDLY BEING AVAILABLE BUT MY CAR IS STILL NOT REPAIRED. IT SEEMS A BIT UNREASONABLE TO ME FOR THIS TO BE TAKING SOOOO LONG TO FIX A SERIOUS FLAW IN THE DIFFERENTIAL. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO SPEED THIS PROCESS UP? THANK YOU FOR ANY ASSISTANCE THAT YOU CAN OFFER.

THE CUE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN CRACKED/WEBBED WHILE MY CAR WAS PARKED IN MY JOBS PARKING LOT. THIS CAUSED ALL FEATURES USING THE SCREEN INCLUDING HANDSFEE FOR CALLS INOPERABLE. THE DEALER STATES THIS IS A KNOWN RECURRING ISSUE WITH THE 2014 CUE SCREENS. APPARENTLY THEY ARE PRONE TO DELAMINATING AND CRACKING DUE TO A POOR MANUFACTURING GM DESIGN. THEY STATED THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SCREENS YET AND THE REPAIR WILL BE OUT OF POCKET.

THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE, PERTAINING TO THE REAR-AXLE DIFFERENTIAL, GM RECALL N192279370. I WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL DURING THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2020. I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT PARTS WERE AVAILABLE MID-MAY 2020. ON JUNE 29TH 2020, I CONTACTED MY LOCAL CADILLAC DEALER, HARVEY CADILLAC OF GRAND RAPIDS, TO REQUEST THE NECESSARY PARTS TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THEY WERE UNABLE TO GIVE ANY TIMELINE ON PARTS AVAILABILITY OR TIMELINE ON REPAIRS. I WAS UNABLE TO GET A LOANER OR RENTAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH HARVEY CADILLAC AND WAS INSTRUCTED TO CONTACT CADILLAC CUSTOMER CARE FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE. I MADE CONTACT INITIALLY ON JULY 7TH 2020 AND WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER AND RECEIVED A BOILERPLATE RESPONSE ABOUT LACK OF PARTS VIA VOICEMAIL. IN DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED TO THE NHTSA, GM STATED THAT COURTESY TRANSPORTATION MAY BE MADE AVAILABLE UNTIL REPAIRS WERE ABLE TO BE MADE, AND REFERENCED COMPANY MEMOS INDICATING HOW THIS WERE TO TAKE PLACE. FURTHER CONTACT TO CADILLAC CUSTOMER CARE REQUESTING THIS LOANER/RENTAL ASSISTANCE VIA MULTIPLE TELEPHONE CALLS, VOICEMAILS, AND SOCIAL MEDIA WENT UNANSWERED. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO MAKE CONTACT OR PROMPT ANY RESPONSE SINCE THAT INITIAL JULY 7TH DESPITE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. HARVEY CADILLAC ON AUGUST 17TH STATED NO PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE ON PARTS AVAILABILITY OR A TIME FRAME ON WHEN THE REPAIR COULD BE COMPLETED. TODAY'S DATE IS AUGUST 31ST, 2020, AND IT HAS BEEN NINE WEEKS SINCE I INITIALLY CALLED TO SCHEDULE REPAIRS FOR A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD PUT MY FAMILIES SAFETY AT RISK. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY DEALER AND CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES THAT I SHOULD AVOID DRIVING THE VEHICLE IF POSSIBLE, AS THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL COULD LOCK UP AND CAUSE A CRASH AT ANY TIME WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING, BUT HAVE BEEN GIVEN NO SOLUTION OR ASSISTANCE AS TO HOW TO ACCOMPLISH SUCH A MEASURE. I HAVE NO ESTIMATED DATE WHEN THE REPAIRS COULD BE COMPLETED.

MY 2014 CADILLAC CTS VSPORT IS PART OF GM RECALL N192279370 (FAILURE OF ROLL PINS IN THE REAR AXLE DIFFERENTIAL). IN EARLY JULY, I BEGAN THE PROCESS TO HAVE THE REPAIR ACCOMPLISHED, BUT THE DEALER (BOB MOORE CADILLAC IN EDMOND, OKLAHOMA) TOLD ME THERE WERE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THE RECALL. SIX WEEKS HAVE PASSED SINCE THAT INTIAL CONTACT AND THERE ARE APPARENTLY STILL NO PARTS IN STOCK AT ANY LEVEL. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL, WITH THE POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES OF THE FAILURE (LOCKING UP OF BOTH REAR WHEELS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS) BEING VERY SERIOUS. I IMPLORE THE NHTSA TO PRESSURE GM TO COME UP WITH THE NECESSARY ASSETS TO GET THIS ACCOMPLISHED ON ALL 2866 AFFECTED VEHICLES, OR PROVIDE EQUIVALENT TRANSPORTATION UNTIL SUCH TIME IT CAN BE DONE.

MY CAR IS PART OF RECALL #N192279370 WHICH WAS ISSUED ALMOST 8 MONTHS AGO. THE RECALL IS FOR AN ISSUE WITH THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WHICH CAN LOCK UP AND SEIZE WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR SYMPTOMS. GM HAS DEEMED THE CAR SAFE TO DRIVE DESPITE SAYING THIS IN THE RECALL NOTICE..."IF THE CONDITION OCCURS WHILE DRIVING, THE REAR WHEELS MAY LOCK UP. THIS MAY AFFECT THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH." FOR ALMOST 8 MONTHS NOW I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE PARTS TO BE SENT TO THE DEALER TO FIX THE CAR. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AND IT HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE GARAGE FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE PAST 8 MONTHS, WHICH HAS LEFT MY FAMILY SHORT A CAR. GM WILL NOT PROVIDE A RENTAL CAR AT THIS TIME, WHICH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF WHEN THE CAR IS ACTUALLY IN FOR SERVICE ONCE THE PARTS FINALLY ARRIVE. AT THIS TIME THERE IS STILL NO FIRM DATE ON WHEN THE NEW PARTS MIGHT ARRIVE AND I AM LEFT WITH A CAR THAT COULD HAVE THE REAR WHEELS COMPLETELY LOCK UP WITHOUT WARNING AT ANY TIME SHOULD I CHOOSE TO DRIVE IT. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND UNACCEPTABLE.
