Lyriq

  • miles
I purchased a brand new Cadillac Lyriq on July 1, 2024, and have encountered several severe issues that compromise the safety and reliability of the vehicle: 1.Display Failure: The display frequently flickers, flashes, and sometimes completely blacks out, causing the loss of critical information such as speed, backup camera, navigation, and other vital systems. This makes the vehicle unsafe to drive, as it is impossible to monitor speed and other essential functions necessary for safe operation. 2.Battery Overheating During DC Fast Charging: The vehicle-??s battery consistently overheats during DC fast charging sessions, causing the charge rate to drop significantly (from ~190 kW down to 14-20 kW). This overheating issue not only drastically extends charging times but also raises serious safety concerns, particularly during long road trips in hot weather. The vehicle has repeatedly experienced these issues, making it unreliable for long-distance travel. 3.Charger Overheating and Instability During Home AC Charging: The home AC charger provided with the vehicle becomes excessively hot while charging the Lyriq. Additionally, the charging rate fluctuates erratically between 0-3 kW, further complicating the charging process. This overheating of the charger at home raises concerns about the safety of parking or charging the vehicle in my garage, as it may pose a fire risk. These issues have been reported to my dealership, who have attempted repairs without success. The problems persist, and the vehicle remains unsafe and unreliable for my family-??s needs. I am deeply concerned about the potential for these issues to lead to more severe safety incidents if not addressed promptly.

Lyriq

Without warning and while driving this vehicle on expressway, I've received the following notifications several times: "Brake Failure" (car brakes on its own); "Service Stability and Auto Hold"; and "High Voltage" and Battery. Brakes, speed, steering, parking systems and camera do not work properly. Car's capacity to drive vehicle safely is reduced significantly - speed to drive car is immediately reduced and is limited without warning. Car shakes passengers violently (whiplash) when it believes there are people or objects in its path when there is nothing there and does not work properly when pedestrians are around the vehicle. During the incidents both my safety and other drivers safety are at risk - I am afraid to drive this vehicle although the dealership has indicated they have corrected the errors.Vehicle purchased 23 Oct - problems began around 2300 miles and have continued thru 4200 miles.
