HOWEVER, THERE HAVE BEEN NEW REPORTS OF THERMAL INCIDENTS ON HWFS MODULES AFTER THIS IMPROVEMENT WAS INSTALLED. THESE INCIDENTS RESULTED FROM A NEW FAILURE MODE ATTRIBUTED TO THE DEVICE'S THERMAL PROTECTION FEATURE. THE SIGNIFICANCE VARIES FROM MINOR DISTORTION TO CONSIDERABLE MELTING OF THE PLASTIC AROUND THE HWFS FLUID CHAMBER.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL PERMANENTLY DISABLE AND REMOVE THE HEATED WASHER FLUID MODULE. AN UPDATED PAGE FOR THE OWNER MANUAL WILL BE PROVIDED AND INSERTED IN THE OWNER MANUAL TO DOCUMENT THAT THE FEATURE HAS BEEN PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE.

The contact owns a 2009 Cadillac Escalade. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the battery was drained. The contact called AAA, who had installed the battery incorrectly.

The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who determined that the system needed to be reset, and the vehicle was working as designed. The failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined that the cylinder head was cracked, and the air compressor needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 180,000.

10 deaths

Lifter failure resulting in a bent pushrod, camshaft, and piston damage. The engine was very dirty like the oil changes were neglected. I always changed the oil in 5,000 mile increments or less depending on driving conditions. The owners manual and oil filler specifies Mobil 1 5W30 oil. When I was working I always had the shop next door change the oil with Mobil 1. After I retired in 2019, I had the nearby GM dealer change the oil. I was unaware that they were substituting DEXOS oil which is not what the owners manual or fill cap specifies for this vehicle. This resulted in premature engine failure. With DEXOS you could be getting oil that is inferior to Mobil 1 full synthetic. See [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

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.

Low oil pressure causing engine failure, suspension issues constantly, limp mode won’t go off

Observed information on dashboard stating service Air Bag...it was told that my car has a Takarta brand air bag ..is there a recall for this airbag ? If so can I be sent a notification..

The contact owns a 2009 Cadillac Escalade. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle was shuddering with an abnormal sound coming from the engine. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over and turned off and restarted the vehicle. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was notified of an engine misfire due to a faulty camshaft sensor. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 117,000.

For approx. the past 6 months, the radio has been cutting out several times during my daily commute. On occasion, a message would appear saying Stabilitrack is off. Saturday, it cut out and stayed off for more than 30 minutes and did it several more times. Everytime the radio cuts out, the door locks started locking and unlocking on their own, the air conditioning, cooled front seats, and defrost turns on and the seats the airbag off light came on, and a warning message saying service stability system came on, plus the engine was revving without power and I was worried I was going to lose all electrical and control, so I pulled off the We have ran several diagnostic but found no error code messages and nothing wrong with the vehicle. When I was talking to them, the system was acting normally. I have taken the car to the dealership and my local family mechanic shop. We have paid extensively to change the grounding wire, battery, cables, fuses and other grounding components to resolve this issue. It is very dangerous and has caused my family to jerk and sometimes be hit in the process. It has died on the highway and creates an extreme possibility for accident to others, if this continues to occur. I typically would not reach out in this manner and I would just replace the vehicle, but through further research, others have also had this problem, reported it on the Cadillac forum and we have not been added to the previous electrical recall or gotten resolutions. This is my last resort before this becomes a fatality for some owner.

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.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CADILLAC ESCALADE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE REPAIR THE DEALER (KEN BATCHELOR CADILLAC, 11001 INTERSTATE 10 PKWY, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78230) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CADILLAC ESCALADE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH ON AN OFF RAMP, THE POWER STEERING SUDDENLY FAILED AND THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED MOMENTARILY. THE DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND DROVE DOWN AN EMBANKMENT. MOMENTS LATER, THE FAILURE WAS CORRECTED AND THE STEERING WHEEL OPERATED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY CADILLAC ESCALADE IS STARTING TO SHOW MORE CRACKS THAN BEFORE. WANT TO FILE A COMPLAINT ON THI ITEM.

PARTS ARE NEVER AVAILABLE. EVERY TIME I GO TO MAY DEALERSHIP (KEN BACHALOR CADILLAC, SAN ANTONIO, TX) THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THEY NEVER HAVE THE PART(S) TO MAKE THE REPAIR. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR GOING ON 2 YEARS.

TAKATA RECALL GENERAL MOTORS HAS NOT PROVIDED THE REPLACEMENT PART TO THE DEALERSHIPS. I CANNOT GET MY CAR REPAIRED, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS SAY THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO. IF THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT I'D RATHER HAVE THE AIRBAG REMOVED THAN TO RUN THE RISK OF EXPLOSION. I LIVE IN A HOT AND HUMID CLIMATE, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE. THERE MUST BE AN URGENT REPAIR INITIATIVE.

TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS HARD AT ABOUT 20MPH, GOING FROM SECOND TO FIRST. INITIALLY ONLY OCCURRED AT THIS SCENARIO HOWEVER IT IS OCCURRING AT NORMAL SHIFTING UP AND DOWN. HAD A 2008 THAT EXPERIENCED THE SAME DOWNSHIFTING PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 165K MILES AND HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR HAULING.

TAKATA RECALL CAR WAS RECALLED IN MAY 2016. REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE STILL UNAVAILABLE.THIS IS AZ WHICH IS ZONE B OF THE RECALL DUE TO HIGH TEMPERATURES
