Some Cadillac XT5 owners report experiencing blinking dashboard lights, which may indicate a misfire condition that can increase emissions and potentially damage the emission control system. These owners are advised to have their vehicles diagnosed and serviced promptly to prevent further harm. Additionally, some owners notice that non-flashing lights may signal problems with the TCS/ESC systems, which could impair vehicle control; seeking service from a dealer is recommended in these cases. In some instances, a temporary glitch may cause the lights to blink, and turning off the vehicle for about 20 minutes can sometimes reset the system. However, it remains important for owners to check for error codes to rule out any underlying issues. Addressing blinking dashboard lights promptly is crucial for maintaining the Cadillac XT5's performance and safety, and professional assistance is encouraged to diagnose and resolve these concerns.
