2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE Complaints

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

CRACK ON FRONT DASH APPEARED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. WAS TOLD IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL. TODAY I NOW HAVE THREE CRACKS AND AN ESTIMATE OF ALMOST $400 TO REPLACE THE PART. IN A QUICK LOOK ONLINE THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE VERY COMMON. I KNOW THERE IS A PUSH TO HAVE GM REPLACE THIS PART AT THEIR EXPENSE AS IT APPEARS TO BE DEFECTIVE. SOMETHING I AGREE WITH AND AM IN FAVOR OF. *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.

AFTER DRIVING THE CAR ON HIGHWAY WITH NO ISSUES CAR WILL STALL OUT APPROACHING LIGHTS,STOP SIGNS OR SLOWING DOWN OR LETTING OFF GAS PEDAL.HAS HAPPENED 8-9 TIMES IN LAST WEEK. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR IDLING ISSUES THAT WOULD WARN US OF THE ISSUE. CHANGED BATTERY,CRANKSHAFT SENSOR ,CLEANED THROTTLE BODY, FUEL FILTER ,AND CHANGED OIL. NO CODES SHOW UP ON MECHANICS DIAGNOSTIC METER.I HAVE TAKEN TO ONLINE CADILLAC FORUMS AND LEARNED THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM.VERY UNSETTLING WITH WIFE AND 4 CHILDREN IN VEHICLE. *TR
