WHEN STOPPING, THEN STARTING UP (WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, LIKE AT A STOP SIGN) THE 2005 CADILLAC SRX WILL OFTEN FAIL TO MOVE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED AND THE +TRACTION CONTROL+ INDICATION LIGHTS UP ON THE RADIO. THIS ALSO HAPPENS SOMETIMES WHEN TURNING WITHOUT STOPPING. IT HAPPENS ON LEVEL GROUND AND WHEN GOING UP INCLINES. IT MAKES A GRINDING SOUND (LIKE WHEN GEARS ARE RAKED IN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION.) BY LETTING OFF THE ACCELERATOR, THEN RE-APPLYING IT, THE CAR WILL MOVE, BUT THE HESITATION IS VERY DANGEROUS. IF THE DRIVER DOES NOT LET OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR DURING ONE OF THESE EPISODES, THE CAR WILL VERY SLOWLY BEGIN TO MOVE AND EVENTUALLY ACCELERATE NORMALLY. THIS HAPPENS ON WET OR DRY PAVEMENT, WITH NO REASON FOR LOSS OF TRACTION. +TURNING OFF+ THE TRACTION CONTROL FEATURE BY PRESSING THE BUTTON ON THE CONSOLE DOES NOT ALWAYS PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, BUT INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE HAD THE CAR INTO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR OF THE PROBLEM NUMEROUS TIMES, BUT THE DEALER HAS NEVER BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR SOLVE THE DEFECT. I PUT MY SAFETY AND OTHERS AT RISK WITH EVERY MILE THAT I DRIVE THIS CAR. *TR
