I was parking in the garage and only tapped on the gas to move a little bit forward and the car accelerated on its own into a racking system and that racking system went through the wall of our home. I was only trying to move further up and barley touched the gas and then the car accelerated into the storage racking system

My 2024 Cadillac LYRIQ, VIN [XXX], has a recurring 12V/electrical problem that has caused repeated battery failures and no-start conditions. At 4,716 miles, the vehicle would not start, the dash went black, and âService Battery Faultâ appeared. Cadillac tested the 12V battery, documented that it FAILED, and replaced it. Only 367 miles later, at 5,083 miles, the vehicle displayed âElectric Drive Unit Immediate Attentionâ and âLimiting Features to Save Battery.â Cadillac documented code U2C11 and performed BECM/Hybrid-EV Battery Pack Communication Module programming/reset. At 12,839 miles, Cadillac documented another electrical issue: the radio and display would not turn off after…

On or about August 6, 2026, I received email communication from the GM EV Concierge , establishing Case #106606137. My vehicle has been "bricked" and GM has had possession of it since August 3, 2026, (46 days and counting) without so much as an official diagnosis or repair timeline. I have repeatedly been told that the matter has been âescalated,â that GM is âworking with the dealership,â and that the repair is being âexpedited,â however, I don't know to whom it has been escalated, but at this point I have not received any measurable result rather than continuous general status statements. Regardless, the practical result remains undisputed: my vehicle continues to be…

The vehicle is a Cadillac Lyriq. Following an over the air software update pushed by the manufacturer, the vehicle began displaying a high voltage system error message and lost the ability to DC fast charge. The high voltage components themselves are reported to be functional, the issue appears to be caused entirely by the software update rather than a hardware failure. The vehicle has been at an authorized dealership service center since August 14, 2026, awaiting a resolution. The dealership has confirmed the fault is present and is consistent with a known issue caused by the manufacturer's software update, but has not been able to repair it independently, since the fix requires a…

On August 9, 2026, at approximately 3:40 a.m., while driving, the vehicle suddenly lost all propulsion and became completely disabled on the roadway. The vehicle remained powered on but would not move forward or backward. At approximately the time of the failure, Cadillac/OnStar Advanced Diagnostics generated a critical Electric Drive Unit warning instructing immediate service and reported diagnostic code P0A78. Additional vehicle diagnostic warnings involved the electric drive unit/high-voltage propulsion system. I immediately contacted roadside assistance but was unable to obtain a workable towing solution for several hours. The vehicle ultimately had to be privately towed and has…

The infotainment screen in my car plus the menu control went completely dead. With the screen dead completely this mean you cannot see the speedomoter, rear camera feeds, warning symbols on the dash. You cannot see current speed, you cannot hear any sound so all alerting systems are down. You are completely blind in a vehicle built around this screen. Dealership has already confirmed faulty computer module. However was told it would have been originally resolved under N252500680. It has only been inspected by the manufacture. No warnings, no nothing, just dead screen out of nowhere that requires new part to bring online. Meaning dead dead; part is currently on back order and design changes…

This is about an issue with the ACC system. While driving with the ACC engaged, it will intermittently disengage and without notification. Then the vehicle applies hard braking. After many multiple occurrences, I now tap the brake pedal and apply acceleration. I can't tell you how concerning this can be while driving at interstate speed. Just the thought of a large truck behind me will put the fear into you. Additionally, I have been able to hear an electrical clicking noise emitting from the left side of the steering wheel. When this occurs the ACC is unavailable and/or unable to be selected. A barrage of notifications will appear saying the Adaptive Cruise Control Selected or Cruise…

In the past 18 months the vehicle has experienced phantom breaking while driving 3 times. Each time there were no vehicles within 30 or more feet from the vehicle. All 3 times occurred while driving the vehicle and going between 20-40 mph. The vehicle engaged in an emergency break and stopped the car in the road. All three times could have resulted in a major accident as it occurred on busy roadways. This last time it happened in the middle of an intersection with no vehicles around me or behind me. This is a major safety concern and put my family and I in a potentially dangerous situation that could have caused major injuries to myself, my family and others around us. The vehicle is…
