Cadillac is the fancy section of the American car maker General Motors (GM). In the year 2017, Cadillac sold a total of 156,440 vehicles in the United States, while its sales worldwide amounted to 356,467 vehicles.
For a long time, Cadillacs have been a car that people of all ages have loved – their dependability and high-quality comfort ensure their impressive status. However, similar to any automobile producer, specific Cadillac models may experience specific engine issues more frequently than other models.

Although Cadillac provides a variety of attributes, there are also typical issues associated with the brand. Some common problems and flaws that can occur with Cadillac cars include the following:
Engine Issues
One of the most frequent problems Cadillac owners face is the warning light for the engine and sudden turn-offs. Our lawyers who specialize in Cadillac lemon law cases are knowledgeable about the various issues related to Cadillacs and the electrical system that collaborates with the motor. Cadillac motors frequently display different problem signals like code P0016, which needs adjustments to the camshaft position. In lots of cases, car sellers will accuse rodents of causing engine problems by damaging the wiring. Yet, our lawyers dealing with Cadillac lemon laws have vigorously advocated for the rights of California customers, demonstrating that these flaws are the main reason behind the engine problems. Additional problems with the engine can occur due to oil leaks, defective detectors, evap systems, start-up units, injectors, fuel pumps, and engine malfunctions.
Transmission Issues
Our legal experts specializing in Cadillac lemon law have fought against General Motors and its branches to resolve problems that California customers have faced with their transmission system. Customers in California have made complaints about experiencing shaking and rough gear changes.
Our main focus, our lawyers who specialize in Cadillac lemon law, have dealt primarily with the well-known 8-speed transmission.
GM/Cadillac has released TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) 18-NA-355, which deals with the issue of “turbulent movement in the clutch that controls the power transfer.” People have been reporting issues with their car’s transmission shaking a lot, and experiencing rough transitions when switching between first and second gear, as well as second to first gear. Customers will frequently encounter these uncomfortable and risky situations in low and moderate accelerator applications, and similarly in high accelerator applications. This sensation can also be explained as the transmission forcefully shifting into gear.
The following Cadillac models that are equipped with the 8-speed transmission are as follows:
- 2015—2017 Cadillac Escalade
- 2016—2018 Cadillac CT6
- 2016—2019 Cadillac ATS
- 2016—2019 Cadillac ATS-V
- 2016—2019 Cadillac CTS (excluding V-Sport models)
- 2016—2019 Cadillac CTS-V
Steering Wheel Locking
The wheel that helps to control the direction of many General Motors (GM) vehicles becomes immobile due to problems with the electrical system.
Air Conditioning Issues
The lawyers at Lemon Law Duo who handle problems with Cadillacs have often discovered that issues with the air conditioning system are connected to the electrical system, like the electrical control panel, the stereo, and other linked components.
