Description of the problem | Add another cadillac srx to the list, our 2015 srx has very dim low beam head lights..... I have been told and looked up for myself, that cadillac and the app warranty folks will not stand behind the head light assemblies; which app should not have to stand behind a factory faulty head light assembly.... How in the world can so many folks have a safety issue with these extremely dim lights and nothing gets done.... On top of that if you pay out of your pocket to replace the assemblies your told that the new fixtures have not changed and will likely do the same thing in short order.... It is sad when the dealers even say that the fixtures are junk.... This is no way to promote cadillac by telling folks to go pound sand instead of fixing a known issue with the reflector inside the fixtures..... It is extremely unsafe to drive our vehicle at night with lights so dim.... I am considering purchasing after market fixtures and hope for the best.... Some standard cadillac hold them self too..... These folks should be embarrassed.... Someone please do something about these head light assemblies before folks get killed... A simple search will show a large number of folks that have this same issue..... I have tried the led lights bulbs, the brightest normal bulbs available with still no luck.... I guess after market fixtures are the only choice.... This is terrible, because the rest of the car is a great car....... |
