What owners wrote
There have been ongoing complaints about the headlights on this car. I avoid driving my car at night due to the fact that visibility is compromised. I had a SERIOUS near miss while driving at night. I was driving on a residential street and did not see a bicyclist going the same direction. The bicyclist veered slightly into my lane and I literally DID NOT see them. Causing me to clip their rear tire causing them to loose control and hit a curb. This is SERIOUS!
I have noticed for the past 3 months of the 3 years I have owned the 2015 cadillac srx that the low beam head lamps are to dim to drive at night. This is a serve safety issue. The headlamps throw now recognizable light on the road. The lights are on and have no directional issues. Calls to multiple GM dealerships and the GM customer service were met with the response of no knowledge of any issues or like complaints. My vehicle showed now evidence of plastic lens degradation, nor yellowing, nor condensation.
