I WAS DRIVING AT THE SPEED OF 75MPH, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I WAS REDUCED TO 30MPH. MY DISPLAY INFORMATION READ STABILITRAK SERVICE, REDUCED SPEED. MY CONCERN IS THAT MY FAMILY AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED DUE TO THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION. I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. SOMEBODY OUT ON THE HIGHWAYS WILL BE INJURED OR KILLED IF SOMETHING IS NOT DONE.

2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE APPARENTLY WAS BUILT WITH SEVERE CAMSHAFT AND BEARING ISSUE. 1ST. STABILITRAK, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND WARNING. STRAIGHT AND LEVEL DRIVING ON CLEAR DRY DAY. THIS IS WHEN ENGINE WAS RUNNING ON HIGHWAY AND ENGINE FULLY AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE. THIS FORCED TRANSMISSION/ENGINE INTO LIMP MODE. MCCADDON DEALERSHIP INSTALLED COMPLETE TRANSMISSION COST OVER $8,000---- ISSUE CAME BACK. THEN THEY REPLACED FUEL PUMP. THEN THEY REPLACED OIL PUMP WHICH SEEMED TO FIX ISSUE, COST $2084.04. NOW AT 225,000 MILES OIL PRESSURE LOW, STOP ENGINE LIGHT, AND WARNING GONG. NO OIL LEAKS, OIL LEVELS ALWAYS WATCHED AND MAINTAINED WITH REGULAR CHANGES. TOOK INTO DEALERSHIP THINKING THEY WOULD REPLACE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR. INSTEAD THEY CHARGED 130.00 TO DIAGNOSE THAT ENGINE WAS LOSING PRESSURE. THEIR SOLUTION, REPLACE ENGINE AT COST OF $10,000. NOW ONLINE SEARCH INDICATES THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY CAUSED BY BAD CAMSHAFTS AND BEARINGS. NOT SURE WHAT I WILL DO, BUT DOUBT I WILL PAY DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE ENGINE AT COST OF $10,K. GM NEEDS TO OWN UP TO DEFECTIVE PART AND RECALL. SOME WOULD SAY WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM CAR WITH OVER 200K MILES? I EXPECT IT TO BE DIAGNOSED CORRECTLY, ROOT CAUSE IDENTIFIED AND FIXED FIRST TIME. OR AT LEAST 2ND TIME, OR 3RD TIME. OTHER BILLS ON THIS CAR FOR VARIOUS THINGS FROM MANIFOLD BOLTS $1220 WHICH INCLUDED A POWER STEERING HOSE, AXLE WHEEL BEARING $704, BALL JOINTS, $2015,ENGINE SEALS$831.77.

TAKATA RECALL---2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE, STABILITY LIGHT CONTROL COMES ON AND OFF. ALSO TRIGGERS MY ENGINE LIGHT TO STAY ON. TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STAYS ON AS WELL. I HAVE REPLACE THE TIMING CHAIN, CAM SHAFT, OIL PRESSURE SENSOR, NEW SHOCKS, NEW COMPRESSOR, AND I KEEP THE OIL CHANGED. EVEN THE CADILLAC DEALER HAS WENT THRU AND THRU THIS VEHICLE REPLACING ALL THIS STUFF AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LATER, TO STILL DOING THE SAME THING AND THEY EVEN SAID THEY HAVE NO CLUE OF WHY IT KEEPS DOING THIS. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEMS WITH THIS CADILLAC AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE RECALLED TO FIX THESE ISSUES NOT ON THE OWNERS POCKET. ON GM'S POCKET. THIS VEHICLE IS ENOUGH ALONE WITHOUT HAVING TO CONTINUE SINKING MONEY AFTER MONEY IT IS TO JUST TRY AND FIX THIS ISSUE. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN CADILLAC'S AND THIS IS MY 2 ONE, BUT PROBABLY MY LAST ONE BECAUSE WHO WANTS TO FORK OUT 80,000 FOR A NEW ONE, TO CONTINUE FORKING OUT WITH ISSUES. THESE ISSUES SEVERELY NEEDS A RECALL BEFORE IT TAKES PEOPLES LIVES. SOON AS THESE LIGHTS COME ON, AND YOU GIVE IT GAS, IF FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO FALL OUT IN THE ROAD. JERKS YOU EVERYWHERE. THIS IS A DAILY PROBLEM, NOT JUST A ONE TIME ISSUE.

I BEEN FIGHTING THIS P0011 CODE FOR OVER A YEAR. I'VE REPLACED THE WHOLE ENGINE, SENSORS, ECM, AND OTHER THINGS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS CODE CAN BE ANYTHING. DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE FOR 100 THINGS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH 1 CODE. I'VE OWNED MANY VEHICLES AND I HONESTLY NEVER EXPERIENCED A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. COSTED ME OVER 10K IN DIAGNOSTICS, PARTS, AND LABOR. I'M NOT THE ONLY 1 WITH THIS PROBLEM. VERY UNFAIR. CADILLAC SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS ENGINE DESIGN HAS TOO MANY FLAWS!

ESCALADE HAVING SAME ISSUES AS EVERYONE ELSE. OIL PRESSURE DUE TO POOR BUILD AND CUT BACKS ON GENERAL MOTORS BEHALF. A UNIT WITH A PRICE UP WORDS OF $70-$80K SHOULD NOT HAVE THE ISSUES. WE AS THE CUSTOMERS AND THE VICTIMS SHOULD NOT PAY THE PRICE AND OUR OWN LIVES (FAMILIES LIVES) FOR A COMPANIES SELFISHNESS. PASSENGER SEAT CONTROL MODULE BURNT DUE TO YET ANOTHER FAULTY GM PRODUCT. THEY SEAM TO NOT CARE AND WANT TO FIX THE ISSUES THAT CAN AGAIN LEAD TO HARM TO ANYONE IN AND AROUND THE VEHICLE. I STILL OWN THIS VEHICLE BUT IT HAS BEEN A UTTER DISGRACE OF WHAT KIND OF PRODUCTS WE HAVE BEEN SOLD. TO THIS DAY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE COMPANY RECALLS PARTS THAT WOULD COST THEM NICKELS AND DIMES AND NOT THE MAJOR ITEMS THAT CAN LEAD TO DISASTERS LIKE DEATH. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD THEY REPLACED MY DE OTHERS DASH...(DASH). SO REPLACE A PLASTIC DASH THAT HAS NO HARM WHAT SO EVER AND OH DON'T MINED IF YOU TRUCK CATCHES ON FIRE DO TO FAULTY MODULES. SHAME HOW GM HAS LET A COMPANY LIKE TOYOTA WHO ACTUALLY LISTENS TO THE COSTUMES SEEM LIKE A MORE PATRIOTIC COMPANY AND KEEPS THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFE ON THE ROADS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, NOW IT'S TIME FOR ACTION. I STILL DRIVE THE TRUCK EVERYDAY AND PRAY I DON'T DIE EVERY TIME . *TR

DRIVER STOPPED VEHICLE PREPARING TO PARK, PLACED IT IN "PARK" AND PROCEEDED TO TURN IGNITION INTO "OFF" POSITION. THE KEY WAS FIRMLY LOCKED IN THE "RUN" POSITION AND WOULD NOT TURN TO "OFF" OR ANY OTHER POSITION. AFTER TRYING TO TURN KEY FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, DRIVER CALLED GM/SEWELL - CADILLAC SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR INSTRUCTION TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT PROVIDE ANY SOLUTIONS THAT WORKED OVER THE PHONE. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE SHUT OFF AT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. AFTER THE INITIAL INCIDENT THERE WERE A NUMBER OF OTHER INCIDENTS INCLUDING KEY HARD TO TURN IN IGNITION, NUMEROUS OCCASIONS OF POWER LOSS THROUGHOUT SYSTEMS IN VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN THE SEWELL CADILLAC MANY TIMES FOR THESE SAFETY ISSUES. A NUMBER OF CALLS HAVE BEEN MADE TO GM ALSO ABOUT THE VEHICLE AND ITS DEFECTIVE NATURE. I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE IGNITION RECALLED VEHICLES.

DRIVING ON THE I10, SEMIS ALL AROUND, DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH. MY DAUGHTER AND HER FRIEND IN THE VEHICLE. ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT FELT LIKE I HIT A WALL. ALL POWER WENT OUT, LOST ALL SPEED, WHEN THE POWER FLICKERED BACK ON, LIGHTS ONLY NO SPEED, ALL THE DASHBOARD WAS LITE UP, EVERYTHING WAS MAKING A SOUND, THE VEHICLE KEPT GOING FROM D -DRIVE TO P-PARK, THE RPM WERE MAXED- YET NO SPEED. AT 51K I NOTICED THE VEHICLE SHIFTING HARD AND TOOK IT IN TO A CADILLAC DEALERSHIP, THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LATER, IT HAS CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME THING, JUST TWO DAYS AGO 2-7-15, IT IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. MANY TIMES I HAVE BEEN IN DANGER OF LOOSING MY LIFE, AM NOT EXAGGERATING. MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN TOUCHED BY THE DEALERSHIP FOR ALL OF ITS SERVICES AND REPAIR. THIS VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE FOR DRIVING. I HAVE A BOOK OF ALL MY SERVICE RECORD DOCUMENTING THE SAME ISSUE OVER, AND OVER...........................................AGAIN. ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND CADILLAC JUST SITS BACK, PROBABLY WAITING FOR LOSS OF LIVES. *TR
