We purchased this '27 Escalade on Thursday 22nd of October. We had it for 6 days or about 200 miles when we received a check engine light that turned on along with a message "Reduced acceleration drive with care". We took it to the dealership in which they've had it for a week now with no answers. They tried to replace one module but that didn't work as another module then failed. This is extremely disappointing as we just paid for a very expensive vehicle, and still have to pay the insurance, while not being able to drive it. GM needs to make this right, but the NHTSA should know of these issues that persist.
