IN ALL VIDEOS I CHECKED FOR ISSUES WITH THE HEATED AND COOLED SEATS I SAW THAT ONE OF THE CONNECTORS TO THE CIRCUIT BOARD WE'RE STARTING TO MELT THE CONNECTOR. UPON REMOVING MINE, THE SAME ISSUE IS SHOWN AND COULD POTENTIALLY BE FATAL IF IT CONTINUES TO MELT AND CATCH FIRE.

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.

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

THE STATE OF MICHIGAN HAS MANDATED THAT ALL LIMOUSINES AND LIMOUSINE BUSES ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE THE REAR DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM DISABLED AND THE DOOR KNOBS REMOVED; AS WELL AS THE ABILITY TO ELECTRONICALLY LOCK THE DOORS WHILE IN MOTION OR AT REST! THIS MANDATE SEEMS TO BE A STATE OF MICHIGAN REQUIREMENT ONLY. I AM GRAVELY CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL GIVE A CUSTOMER / INDIVIDUAL THE ABILITY TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION WHICH WILL RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH! PLEASE CONTACT ME AT [XXX] IF I AM WRONG IN THIS CONCERN...[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

HEATED SEATS NOT WORKING. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE I FOUND OUT THAT ESCALADE'S ARE PRONE TO MELTED WIRE CONNECTIONS ON THE CCSM UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT. MINE HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED BY MANY OTHER ESCALADE OWNER'S. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED? THIS COULD POSE A VERY SERIOUS INTERIOR FIRE RISK. *TR

THE REAR SEAT HEAD RESTRAINTS DO NOT RAISE TO THE STANDARD RECOMMENDED BY 49 CFR 571. THEY CAN BE LIFTED TO 26 INCHES, NOT 27 1/2 INCHES MIN. AS THE STANDARD RECOMMENDS WHICH RENDERS THEM NOT SAFE FOR FULL SIZE ADULTS. AS A RESULT, MANY PASSENGERS REFUSE TO SIT THERE, RENDERING MY "SUT" 5-SEATER TO BE A 2-SEATER VEHICLE. THE RESTRAINTS ARE ALSO NOT LOCKABLE. THANK YOU FOR THE ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THIS CONDITION FIXED. CADILLAC RECOGNIZES THAT ALL THEIR ESCALADE EXTS ARE THE SAME BUT REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY ARE NOT STANDARD AND NEED FIXING.

I HAVE A CADILLAC ESCALADE 2007 AWD. IT HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT AND THE CHROME PLATED INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES HAVE PEELED OFF EXPOSING SHARP EDGES. BOTH THE PASSENGER AND THE DRIVER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES HAVE EXPOSED SHARP EDGES. THROUGH NORMAL USE, THE CHROME HAS PEELED. THERE HAS BEEN NO ABUSE TO THEM. THESE SHARP EDGES HAVE CUT MY FINGER ONCE AND ALSO PASSENGER FINGERS ON THREE OCCASIONS. THE CUT IS WORSE THAN A PAPER CUT. THEY AVERAGE ABOUT 1.5 INCHES. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE AS I AM OUT OF BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. *TR
