| Turn signals failed to work. this is an intermittent problem. the selected signal does not flash when the turn signal is activated as if the bulb is burnt out. went to the expense to replace bulb three times, but, the bulbs were good. after replacing bulb the signal still did not work. after, several weeks it would start working again. a month or so later this happen again and took to dealer and again the bulb was replaced this time the bulb was burnt out. the signal worked for 2 months and went out again. i will never purchase another gm car. my dealer calls it the mystifying car. this is a manufacturing defect that gm will not admit to. shame on gm, no wonder americans are going foreign. the cost to replace this bulb is $85.00 each time. | |||

| Front turn signals do not work. vehicle has been to the dealer no less than 6 times throughout it's life. i have personally changed 2 turn signal bulbs. i am an engineer... and the bulbs are fully functional after replacement. the bulbs socket is plastic with a wire. it appears the wire melts the plastic and the turn signal stops working prematurely. this might be fixed with bulb that is of all glass construction (which gm does not use and not available at the local parts store). or possibly the turn signal circuit is using too much current for this application. either way this is a certain design defect... noted on cadillac forums. i just replaced another bulb and the next day it is not working again. the problem i find, is there is no way to fix this problem. there are no faulty parts to replace. it must be a design defect. and owners of these vehicles are a liability on the road. *tr | |||

| Turn signals failed to work. this is an intermittent problem which the dealer has failed to correct. the selected signal does not flash when the turn signal is activated. the operator will then cancel the signal and activate the other side and the signal still does not flash. then, several minutes later, both signals work properly. *ak | |||
