What owners report
My 2025 Cadillac LYRIQ has approximately 12,000 miles. On multiple occasions, the vehicle has unexpectedly applied the brakes and come to a sudden, forceful stop even though there was no visible vehicle, pedestrian, or obstacle requiring emergency braking. During the most recent incident, the abrupt stop caused my body to move forcefully and I developed neck pain. This creates a serious risk of injury, loss of control, or being struck from behind. The vehicle has also displayed âAWD Temporarily Unavailable,â ABS/brake warnings, vibration while braking, steering vibration, and shaking during acceleration. These symptoms began before the latest sudden-braking incident and have continued a

The contact owns a 2025 Cadillac Lyriq. The contact stated that while driving approximately 45 MPH on a four-lane highway with the cruise control deactivated, the vehicle unintendedly accelerated.

The contact stated that the vehicle travelled approximately 3 miles before the vehicle decelerated. The contact exited the vehicle, and
I was driving on the freeway and was between two cars. The car on my right was trying to merge into me. I immediately was breaking while trying to control steering. I attempted to honk three times and my honk horn would not work. In a case of an emergency, that is absolutely unacceptable a car like this should be able to honk.
I did some online research and am concerned that the accident may have been caused by a safety issue reported on our 2025 model Cadillac Lyriq involving its One Pedal Driving (OPD) feature. We had tried using OPD when we first got the car and didn't like it and have not engaged it again over the past year. However, after an Over The Air update last week, the feature seems have been engaged by itself. I noticed it the evening before and needed to research how to disengage. In the mean time my wife had to go out before I was able to disengage it, and not realizing the issue was anything but undesirable she went out to an appointment and had an accident pulling into a parking spot at Walgreens.
