These are unverified consumer reports filed with NHTSA, shown as submitted.

• 12/25/2018· AIR BAGS

  THE AIR BAG HAS NOT BEEN RELACED. GOING ON 2 YEARS SINCE THE RECALL.

• 12/16/2016· STEERING

  ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE AND THE STEERING RACK & PINION (PART NUMBER 20870559). LESS THAN ONE MONTH AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE I WAS TURNING LEFT TO MANEUVER OUT OF A TIGHT SPOT AND THE VEHICLE CHIMED, GAVE AN ALERT, AND MY STEERING BECAME MANUAL. IT SPENT SEVERAL WEEKS IN THE SHOP BECAUSE THE PART WAS UNAVAILABLE LOCALLY AND HAD TO BE SHIPPED IN FROM CANADA. REPAIRED AND HAD LESS THAN A WEEK AND LOST CONTROL AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND TURNING TO LEAVE - SAME PROCESS. WHAT IF I WAS TURNING ON A CURVE GOING 70? WHAT IF I WAS USING CRUISE? WHAT IS I HAD A SHARP CURVE THAT POPPED UP AND I LOST CONTROL? READING SIMILAR RECALLS FROM 2004 AND 2014 OF STEERING ISSUES. I BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE WAS OVERLOOKED IN THE RECALL AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ISSUES IF NOT DISCOVERED. HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR A MONTH. TOO MANY SIMILARITIES TO THE PREVIOUS RECALLL NOT TO BE INCLUDED!

• 08/17/2011· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC,TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM

  I DRIVE A 2009 CADILLAC ESCALADE HYBRID. THE POWER ON THE BRAKES WENT OUT, TO WHERE I ONLY HAD ABOUT 5% BREAKING POWER. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME AND I WAS GOING SLOW, SO NO ACCIDENT WAS CAUSED. THREE ERROR CODES CAME UP ON MY DASHBOARD, "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL", "SERVICE STABILITRAK", AND "SERVICE BRAKES SOON". I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST CADILLAC DEALERSHIP. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE LOST MY BREAKS WHILE DRIVING. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, EVERYTHING STARTED UP NORMAL AGAIN AND WORKED AFTER I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND TURNED IT BACK ON. AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM. NOW AFTER THIS INCIDENT I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THAT CAR. HAVING MY BRAKES GIVE OUT WHILE DRIVING IS THE MOST SCARY THING THAT'S EVER HAPPENED TO ME AND IS NOT AN ISSUE THAT CAN GO UNRESOLVED. THE WORST PART ABOUT THIS IS AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND FORUMS, OTHER GENERAL MOTORS (GM) HYBRID OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES WITH LOSING THE BREAKING SYSTEM. EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE! SOME HAVE FALLEN UNDER THE LEMON LAW AND HAVE GOTTEN NEW VEHICLES. I AM NOT SURE WHAT MY VEHICLE FALLS UNDER BUT I AM WAITING TO FIND OUT. IN THE MEANTIME THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BECAUSE THIS IS NOT THE AIR CONDITIONING GOING OUT OR A MINOR DEFECT, THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION. FROM MY INVESTIGATIONS, THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED SITUATION AND I WONDER WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN SOME KIND OF RECALL. PLEASE GOOGLE SEARCH "GM HYBRID BRAKE ISSUES" AND YOU WILL FIND MANY OTHERS ALL EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP AS NOT ONLY MY LIFE BUT THE LIFE OF OTHERS ARE IN DANGER IF NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT THIS. *KB

• 07/30/2024· SUSPENSION,POWER TRAIN,ENGINE

  After driving car all day off and on, it suddenly went into limp mode. Multiple misfires. Service traction t control and service stabilitrak warnings. Engine light flashing. Car had oil. Replaced oil pressure sensor. Replaced spark plugs. Wires. And coils. Will not clear misfire and won’t go out of limp mode. $7500 fix. This is ridiculous. I have heard of 15 others with the same issue.

• 07/17/2009· EXTERIOR LIGHTING,STRUCTURE

  HEADLIGHT INSTALLED HEIGHT ON TALLER VEHICLES SUCH AS CATEGORY 1 AND 2 TRUCKS (COMMONLY CALLED SUV, CROSSOVER, VAN, PICKUP TRUCK, ETC.) IS OF SUCH A DESIGN THAT IT COMMONLY (PERHAPS UNAVOIDABLY) ENDS UP BLINDING DRIVERS IN PASSENGER CARS AT LOWER HEIGHTS BY DIRECTING THE 'HOT SPOT' OF HEADLIGHT LOW BEAMS DIRECTLY INTO THE EYES OF PASSENGER CAR DRIVERS. IN ADDITION, BUMPER HEIGHT ON THESE SAME VEHICLES IS NOT DESIGNED TO MEET BUMPERS ON OTHER VEHICLES, RESULTING IN HIGHER THAN NECESSARY INJURY AND FATALITY RATES. PLEASE HAVE SOMEONE CONTACT ME TO DISCUSS WAYS TO DEVELOP SAFER VEHICLE DESIGNS AND REGULATIONS. *TR

  TAKATA RECALL. MY WIFE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE DAILY WITH OUR TWO CHILDREN. THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS RANDOMLY COME ON AND OFF FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS. NOW IT IS PERMITTEDLY ON, WITH THE 'SERVICE AIRBAG' ALSO ON THE INFORMATION CENTER. AS A SAFETY ISSUE WE FILL THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY, WHICH I'M SURE HAS BEEN EXPRESSED BY MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEM.

• 06/27/2018· AIR BAGS

  WE HAVE BEEN RECEIVING LETTERS ABOUT THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL & I ALSO HAVE THE CARFAX APP THAT STATES THE RECALL & ALSO THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER AFTER THEY TOOK OUR APPOINTMENT TO REPAIR THE AIRBAG THEN THEY KEPT THE CAR ALL DAY TO GET A CALL THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE AIRBAG THEREFORE THEY CAN'T TURN THE AIRBAG LIGHT OFF EITHER. WE REALLY NEED TO SELL THIS CAR AS WE HAVE A HIGH PAYMENT & WE NEED TO REDUCE OUR MONTHLY PAYMENTS. THIS IS HARD TO DO WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. MY HUSBAND HAD BEEN DEALING WITH MANY MANY PEOPLE, SUPERVISORS, GM ETC & NOBODY SEEMS TO WANT TO HELP. (INTERESTING THAT MY BROTHER HAS THE SAME RECALL ON HIS LINCOLN & HE'S IN A RENTAL CAR). WE ARE TAKING A LIFE THREATENING RISK EVERY TIME WE DRIVE THIS CAR AS THERE IS SOMEONE ALWAYS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHETHER IT'S ONE OF OUR KIDS, OURSELVES OR ANOTHER FRIEND ETC.
