2024 CADILLAC LYRIQ — Complaint #2177814
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS filed February 17, 2026
NHTSA complaint #2177814 (ODI reference 11718653) concerns a 2024 CADILLAC LYRIQ and was filed on February 17, 2026. The owner reports the failure occurred on February 17, 2026. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as forward collision avoidance: warnings, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CADILLAC LYRIQ cohort independently describe similar forward collision avoidance: warnings failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2024 CADILLAC LYRIQ shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
I was traveling on the freeway at approximately 70 mph, at about 5:15 pm. I was not using cruise control. There was no one in front of me for maybe a quarter mile. Suddenly and without warning, the car slammed on the brakes. A yellow alert came up on the dash telling me the Forward Collision system had been activated. The red warning lights at the front of the dashboard (the heads-up display) also flashed. The road was dry, I was on an entirely straight section of road, and there were no shadows. Besides scaring me half to death, if someone had been immediately behind me, they could easily have slammed into me. The car has not been inspected by the dealer, etc. I believe OnStar should have a record of it happening, but I have not contacted them.
