    Nearly all of Cadillac's all-electric Lyriq SUVs are being
    recalled by parent company General Motors over a potentially
    catastrophic problem with their brakes.

    The recall covers 2023 and 2024 all-wheel drive models,
    amounting to 21,469 vehicles in total.

    Following the EV's debut in 2022, 22,370 Lyriqs have been
    sold in the U.S., meaning the recall affects roughly 95
    percent of them.

    The vehicle, which was plagued with production delays in
    its infancy, was recalled because the vehicle's anti-lock
    braking system (ABS) could activate unnecessarily and
    release brake pressure.

    . . .

    Caddy - THE American symbol of reaching the "next level"
    on the social ladder !!!

    Ok, while EVs generally suck for a number of reasons
    THIS issue doesn't have anything to do with the Lyriq
    being "electric" - just BAD DESIGN of the brake system.
