It cut off in the middle of traffic every time I drive it . The. Stability engine power reduced comes on. I have small kids in the car it becomes a issue because we almost got hit

-Traction Control/Stabilitrak light comes on and the major thing is the Camshaft and bearings that cause the LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUT OFF ENGINE WARNING LIGHT.. - When Low oil pressure shuts off the engine light comes on it will cause your vehicle to stall and shut off wherever you at.. -Independent service center - No just the independent service center worker - Yes! Start out with the Traction Control/Stabilitrak light and then the Low OIL PRESSURE SHUT OFF ENGINE WARNING LIGHT..January of 2022.

My family and I were leaving home to on vacation last year, when the vehicle suddenly cut off in traffic and refused to start. After getting the vehicle to my home which was 50 miles away. I just told the driver to park it on the street until I got back home, which was seven days later. After arriving back home, vehicle was towed to shop, at which time, NO One could find anything wrong with my 2007 Escalade. So, after driving it for several minutes, the vehicle cut-off again and would not start, soc I phoned my wife, who came with my Expediton and towed me home. After several attempts to start the vehicle, I was informed by a passersby that he had the same problem, that his fuel pump had went out. Well, guess what, it was the fuel pump. So, why is it that certified mechanics at a Cadillac Dearlership couldn't diagnose this problem. It's unfuckinbeliveable that any Dearlership, Pepboys or any other Auto Repair Shop wouldn't explore all options before saying " We can't find nothing wrong" totally inexcusable..

Loss of all electical power to vehicle as though battery failure. Dashboard goes out at times and I am unable to see how fast I am going or if the car is even in drive. Service Stabilitrack light comes on, but goes away. While driving my car door locks. They would lock, unlock. DVD/Nav and Radio shuts off.Air bag light comes on. Driver seat was not working , took it to a mechanic and it read bad motor for seat. About a week ago, the seat started to work again, which worried me. Our mechanic was also worried because he believes it’s an electrical problems which may be very dangerous on the road. The smell of a plastic like fume lingers sometimes.

The contact owns a 2007 Cadillac Escalade. The contact stated while driving at 15 MPH, smoke coming from the interior of the dashboard. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and disconnected the battery from the vehicle and opened the dashboard and saw wiring in the harness of the dashboard melting. The contact put water on the dashboard to stop the smoke. The contact had someone help push their vehicle to their residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

THE AIR BAG ISSUE NOT BEING REPAIRED HAS CAUSED ELECTRICAL ISSUES. IT HAS CAUSE THE LOCKS TO GO UP AND DOWN, THE RADIO TO QUIT AND NOT COME ON, ALL ELECTRONICS IN DASH TO STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING AND I RAN OFF THE ROAD BECAUSE I HAD NO CONTROL. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THAT WAS ABLE TO LET ME DRIVE IT AND NOT THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES ARE BACK. IT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE I WAS TURNING ON A BYPASS AND I ALMOST GOT HIT. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. IT DID NOT SHOW ANY CODES TO THE MECHANIC AND IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING TO ME YESTERDAY. THIS VEHICLE WILL GET ME KILLED IF IT IS NOT REPAIRED. *TR

TAKATA RECALL- I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS REMEDIED AND WAS TOLD GM DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS? I HAVE ALREADY HAD MY BMW 3 SERIES AND CHRYSLER 200 AIRBAGS FIXED SO WHY IS GM HAVING ISSUES WITH REPLACING THEM? THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ALSO HAS ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF CORROSION AT ALL THE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS, I SAW THERE HAS BEEN A TECHNICAL BULLETIN POSTED FOR THIS, SO WHAT HAS GM DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE ALSO? I JUST BOUGHT THE CADILLAC AND THE AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT WAS ON AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO THIS RECALL NOT GETTING DONE.

I HAVE CONTACTED CADILLAC CUSTOMER SERVICE REGARDING MY STEERING WHEEL SMOKING AND BURNING A HOLE IN THE LEATHER WHEN I USE THE HEATED STEERING WHEEL FEATURE. THEY ARE CLAIMING THAT IT IS THE RESULT OF NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR WHICH I FIND ABSURD. THE DEALER REPRESENTATIVE STATED TO ME THAT IN THE 10 YEARS HE'S BEEN WORKING ON GM CARS, HE HAS NEVER SEEN THIS HAPPEN. ALSO, THE DEALER CHARGED ME TO REPLACE ALL FOUR INTERNAL DOOR HANDLES AFTER THE METAL DEGRADED AND STARTED CUTTING OUR HANDS. APPARENTLY, OTHER ESCALADES WERE COVERED UNDER A RECALL BUT NOT MY VIN. I THINK BOTH SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM GIVEN THE SERIOUS NATURE OF BOTH DEFECTS.

WE WERE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT AFTER THE SUV WAS PARKED FOR OVER AN HOUR. WHEN I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. SMOKE STARTED POURING IN SIDE THE CAR ON THE DRIVER SIDE FROM UNDER THE DASH BOARD. WE PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND CALLED 911. OPENED THE HOOD AND 3FT FLAMES SHOT OUT, THE ALARM WENT OFF AS SMOKE AND FLAMES FILLED THE AIR. A LADY IN A HOME NEARBY RAN OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO ASSIST. FIRE AND POLICE CAME, REPORT WAS FILED. MY LUNGS BURNED FOR WEEKS AFTER AND I HAD A CHRONIC COUGH. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER FOUND IT TO BE A MANUFACTURE DEFECT BUT GM REFUSED TO WORK WITH US ON COSTS. WE HAD TO PAY FULL PRICE OUT OF POCKET FOR REPAIRS. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH BBB, GM, AND MANY OTHERS BUT GOT NO ASSISTANCE. I ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH THIS SUV AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 100,000 MILES WHICH THE SHOP SAID IT WAS UNUSUAL BUT FOR A TRANSMISSION TO FAIL AT THIS LOW OF MILES BUT IN THESE TRANSMISSIONS IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT IF FAILING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN DOING 65 AND LOCKED UP. THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN ISSUES WITH THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR WHICH MANY PEOPLE HAVE ALSO REPORTED, DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD WHICH GM REFUSED TO REPLACE. THE FILM OVER THE WINDSHIELD WAS DEFECTIVE WHICH CAUSED BLURRY VISION IN THE DRIVERS LINE OF VIEW. I HAD TO PAY TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD. GM HAS NOT BACKED ANY OF THE ISSUES WITH THIS SUV. IT HAS BEEN A LEMON SINCE DAY ONE. I HAVE ALL RECEIPTS FOR REPAIRS. *TR

HEATED FRONT SEATS NOT WORKING. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS, IS THAT THE CONNECTOR THAT ATTACHES TO THE CLIMATE CONTROL SEAT MODULE (CCSM) (WHICH IS LOCATED UNDER THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT), OVERHEATS TO THE POINT THAT THE CONNECTOR HAS MELTED. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AND CADILLAC SHOULD LOOK INTO FIXING IT. FROM ALL THE POSTS ON THIS SUBJECT IN THE CADILLAC OWNER'S FORUMS THERE ARE ALOT OF OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND CONCERNS. *TR

NOT SURE WHERE THE PROBLEM IS BUT I KNOW MY BROTHER IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS SILVERADO. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2007 ESCALADE AND HAVE HAD IT FOR JUST ABOUT 1 YEAR. SO FAR I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD, HUBS, EVAP SENSOR, PURGE VALVE, FUEL LEVEL SENSOR, TRANSMISSION, DEFECTIVE RIMS, PLUS THE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ITEMS....BRAKES, ROTORS, BATTERY. ALL OF WHICH HAPPENED TO GO RIGHT AROUND 90,000 TO 100,000 MILES. I CONTACTED CADILLAC TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES AND COMPENSATE SOME COSTS AS THIS SUV HAS ALWAYS BEEN REGULARLY MAINTAINED WITH THE BEST PRODUCTS AVAILABLE INCLUDING SYNTHETIC OILS. THEY REFUSED TO WORK WITH ME.... WELL TODAY THE ICING ON THE CAKE. MY GRANDFATHER PASSED AWAY THIS WEEK, WHILE MOVING HIS PERSONAL BELONGINGS AND HAVING A FULL TRUCK LOAD OF THEM THE TRUCK CAUGHT ON FIRE. SMOKE BEGAN TO POUR IN FROM THE DASH BY THE WINDSHIELD THE UNDER THE DASH. I OPENED THE HOOD AND FLAMES SHOT OUT BURNING MY HAND. THE POLICE & FD CAME. THANK GOD FOR THE FAMILY IN THE HOME NEAR BY WHO RAN OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER. I HAD TO PAY FOR A TOW FROM MAINE TO NH. I WAS OUT OF STATE, THE DEALER IS CLOSED UNTIL MONDAY. FIND A VEHICLE TO USE TO GO TO NY WHERE THE FUNERAL SERVICE ARE BEING HELD. THIS VEHICLE IS UNDEPENDABLE, UNRELIABLE, JUNK THAT IS UNSAFE. NOT ONLY IS IT BECAUSE THIS ONE IS A LEMON BUT BECAUSE THEY DO NOT BACK THE PRODUCT. GM DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE PUBLICS SAFETY. THEY DON'T CARE IF FOLKS GET INJURED OR KILLED. MANY OF THE ISSUES I HAVE HAD ARE SAFETY ISSUES BUT GM DOSE NOT FIND THEM TO BE. IF A TRANSMISSION LOCKS UP WHEN YOU ARE DOING 65 ON A HIGHWAY AND DROPS TO 20 I THINK THAT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MULTIPLE MECHANICS. IF YOUR WINDSHIELD IS DEFECTIVE DUE TO THE PLASTIC AND GLASS SEPARATING AND YOU CAN'T SEE TO DRIVE, THAT TOO IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOUR HUBS GO BAD YOUR WHEEL CAN COME OFF AT ANY SPEED...ANOTHER ISSUE. AND IF YOU ARE TRAPPED IN A BURNING CAR. I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT MAY BE AN ISSUE TOO. *TR

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: WE WILL 'NEVER' OWN ANOTHER GMAC CADILLAC (COMPANY NAME: MCGINNIS) VEHICLE. WE LEASED THIS VEHICLE IN MARCH, 2009 AND WE HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS SINCE WE OWNED THIS VEHICLE. I FEAR FOR MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY'S LIVES RIDING IN THIS 2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE SUV. GMAC AND MCGINNIS HAVE CREATED AN UNDUE HARDSHIP AND FEAR FOR MY FAMILY'S LIVES. YES, WE FEAR FOR OUR LIVES AS A FAMILY WHEN WE ARE IN THIS VEHICLE; IT IS NOT CERTAIN IF WE WILL MAKE IT BACK HOME. GMAC AND MCGINNIS CADILLAC DEALERSHIP KNEW THAT THIS VEHICLE HAD 'ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS' FROM THE OUTSET BUT DIDN'T NOTIFY US OF THESE PROBLEMS UNTIL SEPTEMBER OF 2008 PUTTING ME AND MY FAMILY LIVES IN FURTHER DANGER AS WELL AS TO MY HOUSE IF THIS CAR WOULD 'CATCH A FIRE'; THIS 2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE SUV WAS HOUSED EVERY NIGHT IN MY ENCLOSED GARAGE. AS STATED FROM THEIR SAFETY RECALL MEMO DATED SEPTEMBER, 2008. "A SHORT CIRCUIT ON THE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD FOR THE WASHER HEATER MAY OVERHEAT THE CONTROL CIRCUIT GROUND WIRE. THIS MAY CAUSE OTHER ELECTRICAL FEATURES TO MALFUNCTION, CREATE AN ODOR, OR CAUSE SMOKE. IN RARE CASES, IT MAY CAUSE A FIRE." IT IS CLEARLY STATED IN THEIR RECALL MEMO THAT THIS VEHICLE "MAY CAUSE A FIRE". GMAC AND MCGINNIS CADILLAC DEALERSHIP KNEW THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES WHEN THEY ARE IN THIS VEHICLE. AS CAN BE SEEN FROM MY ATTACHED DOCUMENTS INCLUDING THE TRANSACTION HISTORY FOR THIS VEHICLE, WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SINCE WE OWNED THIS VEHICLE AND NEITHER MCGINNIS CADILLAC DEALERSHIP NOR LEVI CADILLAC DEALERSHIPS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE THESE PROBLEMS. GMAC WAS CORRECT IN STATING THAT THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WILL CAUSE OTHER "ELECTRICAL FEATURES TO FAIL" AS CAN BE SHOWN FROM THEIR TRANSACTION HISTORY AND MY SUMMARY OF THEIR TRANSACTION HISTORY INCLUDING MY INVOICES OF REPAIRS: 1.BATTERY WAS REPLACED SIX TIMES 2.AIR CONDITIONING HVAC CONTROL MODULE WAS REPLACED 3.ALL CIGA. *TR
