 Description of the problemPurchased a 2015 cadillac srx 10-9-2020. After driving for several weeks, noticed driving at night was hard to see, as low beam headlights were very dim. Took to an auto shop who inspected and suggested headlight bulbs be replaced. Drove a couple of nights and still had low visibility. Took back to auto shop and after an intense inspection, discovered the entire headlight assemblies needed to be replaced. Looking on the internet, we discovered this is a problem with many other cadillac srxs. I wrote a letter to gm describing my safety concerns with the vehicle. I was contacted by a customer service person, who in turn, put me in contact with a local cadillac dealer. The dealer then put me through to their service rep, who told me they could do nothing for me, that the warranty had expired. All repair work would be out of pocket. The service rep told me that gm had sent out letters to cadillac owners regarding the headlight repairs, and that the time had expired. I told him i didn't own the car at that time, so i was unaware of any letter, and the previous owner evidently didn't have it repaired. The cost to replace the both headlight assemblies is $1,950. 00. Since this is a major safety problem of driving at night with low visibility, i am requesting that nhtsa help go to battle with gm and demand a recall to fix this problem on all cadillac srx vehicles before there are accidents, or worse yet, a death, caused from the lack of visibility while driving at night. This problem should not be. Gm should not even think twice about repairing a car that defective components have been discovered on their cars. Nhtsa, please help us!
