ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE STALLED QUIETLY WHEN COMING TO STOP WITH VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND/OR CLUTCH DEPRESSED. I SAY QUIETLY BECAUSE I DID NOT HEAR OR FEEL IT SHUT OFF. (DIFFERENT FROM STALLING VEHICLE DUE TO IMPROPER FOOT WORK ON THE CLUTCH) WHEN I WENT TO TURN LEFT I REALIZED IT WAS DEAD. VEHICLE DID RESTART IMMEDIATELY. THIS HAS HAPPENED 6 - 10 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. MOST RECENTLY THE POWER STEERING RACK FAILED TO TURN BACK ON AT RESTART. DEALER SERVICED STEERING CONTROLLER PER TSB. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE RANDOM STALLING IN A 10 MILE TEST DRIVE AS IT ONLY HAPPENS TO ME ONLY ONCE A WEEK OR TWO. THIS COULD BE MORE DANGEROUS IF IT DID NOT RESTART AND I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION OR MOVING.

VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS WITH THE HID OPTION DO NOT ALWAYS ALIGN PROPERLY CAUSING ONE SIDE, EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT ON OCCASION TO AIM HIGHER THAN THE OTHER. THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING WHEN THE VEHICLE HEADLIGHT SELECTION IS IN THE AUTO MODE AND THE KEY FOB OR IGNITION BUTTON IS USED. THIS HAS BECOME A NUISANCE BECAUSE I MUST CONSTANTLY PARK BY A WALL TO MAKE SURE THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE ALIGNED PROPERLY BEFORE DRIVING OFF AND BLINDING ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE CALIBRATION CYCLE SEEMS TO BE FAULTY AND I HAVE BEEN TO TWO DEALERS WITH NO RESOLVE. I AM ALSO WORKING WITH CADILLAC CUSTOMER SERVICE AND AM HOPING FOR A QUICK SOLUTION. THIS ISSUE MAY BLIND ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND I MUST STOP AND RESTART THE CAR NUMEROUS TIMES TO GET THE HEADLIGHT CYCLE TO ALIGN THE LIGHTS. *TR
