Escalade

  • miles
Transmission brakes at speed, feels as if I got rear ended from the back. I know that there is lawsuits against GM for this same problem that I am having. GM knew about these transmission problems and told everyone that this 8 speed transmission was supposed to shift this way. But, now I have it parked in my driveway. Is there anyway that I can get my truck fixed?

Escalade

  • 45,000 miles
This vehicle equipped a front camera (23171580) to provide lane departure warning, collision warning, auto brake function, but after a front window glass change, all these functions are not available, and after research, we found GM require a 30 minutes re-calibrate window, after that I have to replace a new camera. In GM service instruction document sb-10057012-2409.pdf, it said: If after 30 minutes the original camera will not calibrate, replace the front view camera. GM provide a free replacement to vehicles under the bumper-to-bumper coverage, they knew this problem clearly. These functions are important to the safety of this vehicle, and now it's a threaten for some functions are not available. I want GM recall these cameras of replace it for free to customer needed.

Escalade

  • 19,210 miles
Driving our 2015 Escalade on I-45 just North of huntsville, tx about 11:30 am. Driving with cruise control on at speed limit of 75 mph. There was a peep, car rapidly decelerated to below 50, and low tire pressure light came on. If someone had been close behind me, we would have been hit before I could have reacted. Pull off on an exit and called Cadillac service adviser in huntsville. No help. Looked at tires and then confirmed tire air pressure was normal on instrument panel display. Spent time trying to figure out what had happened. Cruise control would not work while driving on side road, warning light stayed on but info display showed all tires at 37 lbs. Pulled off road again, stopped car, turned engine off, waited a minute, and turned engine back on. Everything was normal. No warning light for tires and cruise control worked. This issue is potential killer due to rapid deceleration and danger of rear end collision.
