CADILLAC announced a problem with the SRX affecting a total of 54 vehicles.
It has been identified that, some vehicles may have insufficient clearance between one or both of the rear brake pipes, and the intermediate steering shaft. Should either of the pipes touch the shaft, a hole could be worn in the pipe, causing brake fluid to leak out. If sufficient brake fluid leaks from the system, the brake warning light will illuminate and braking would be limited to two wheels. Once sufficient brake fluid has leaked out of the second pipe; brake failure would occur.
Recalled vehicles will have a section of the subject pipe replaced with one that has been redesigned to allow sufficient clearance between the brake pipe, and the intermediate steering shaft.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest CADILLAC dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
