ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:HORN
THE HORN FAILED TO SOUND WHEN IT WAS NEEDED. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR WHEN THE HORN IS NOT USED FOR SOME TIME. I HAD THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON MY 2004 CADILLAC ESCALADE EXT, AND I THINK A RECALL SHOULD BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM ON ALL GM CARS AND TRUCKS INVOLVED. I AM TIRED OF BEING SCARED WHEN MY HORN DOES NOT WORK. AFTER A YEAR, GM SHOULD HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED. I THINK NHTSA SHOULD NOW RESOLVE IT FOR THEM!*JB

EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER, AIR BAGS
ON JULY 16TH, 2005; I WAS INVOLVED IN A LIFE CHANGING, SINGLE VEHICLE AUTO ACCIDENT. I STRUCK A HILL WITH THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WITH ENOUGH EXCESSIVE FORCE TO FLIP THIS CADILLAC ESCALADE HEAD FIRST. THE ESCALADE FLIPPED TWICE, IMPACTING THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND LANDING UP SIDE DOWN. ASTONISHINGLY, OUT OF THE FOUR AIR BAGS IN THIS VEHICLE, NOT ONE OF THEM DEPLOYED. I PURCHASED THIS 2004 ESCALADE BRAND NEW AND AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT IT ONLY HAD 15,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS AND IT IS UTTERLY UNBELIEVABLE THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH THE RAVED REVIEWS, CONSUMER REPORTS INCLUDING SAFETY FEATURES, AND STYLISH BODY THAT THIS CADILLAC ESCALADE BECAME THE VEHICLE OF MY DREAMS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY CADILLAC EXPERIENCE. I DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE ENOUGH TO GET INTO ANOTHER ONE. I KNOW THAT I AM ONLY HERE BECAUSE GOD DECIDED THE SPARE MY LIFE. AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS ACCIDENT I FREQUENTLY SUFFER SEVERE MIGRAINES, DIZZY SPELLS, BLURRED VISION, MEMORY LOSS, AND ANXIETY/PANIC ATTACKS ALL WHICH KEEP ME FROM SLEEPING. IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO COMMUTE FROM DOCTORS APPOINTMENTS AND WORK FOR FEAR OF ANOTHER ACCIDENT. THE NEXT WEEK I HAD SEVERE CHEST, SHOULDER AND LOWER BACK PAINS; ALL OF WHICH I AM BEING TREATED FOR ON A REGULAR BASIS. I ALSO SEEK TREATMENT FROM A NEUROLOGIST FOR THE HEAD INJURY. I BELIEVE THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAGS AND GM SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER INVESTIGATING THIS MATTER. *JB

TIRES
THIS IS A SYNOPSIS OF THE INCIDENTS WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER HP TIRES (P265/70R17) THAT HAVE OCCURRED WITH MY 2002 CADILLAC ESCALADE EXT. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON DECEMBER 27, 2003, MYSELF ALONG WITH MY FATHER, MOTHER, SISTER AND COUSIN ELLISON WAS TRAVELING IN A 2002 CADILLAC ESCALADE EXT. AS WE WERE TRAVELING DOWN INTERSTATE 16 FROM MACON, GEORGIA TO SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, THERE WAS A LOUD POPPING SOUND AND THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WAS THROWN INTO THE AIR. ONCE THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE HIT THE GROUND, I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY MANEUVER THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN WE EXITED THE VEHICLE, WE NOTICED THAT THE THREAD HAD COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE RIGHT REAR TIRE. THERE WAS ALSO SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE DONE TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. ON NOVEMBER 18, 2004, WHILE MY FATHER AND MOTHER WERE TRAVELING ON I-95 NEAR BRUNSWICK, GEORGIA, THEY FELT A THUD AND IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN THEY EXITED THE VEHICLE, THEY NOTICED THAT THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE THREAD HAD STARTED TO SEPARATE. ON NOVEMBER 30, 2004, LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AFTER THE PREVIOUS TIRE INCIDENT, MY FATHER AND MOTHER WAS TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE 16 NEAR STATESBORO, GEORGIA. AT THIS POINT IN TIME, THE LEFT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT. AGAIN MY FATHER WAS ABLE TO SAFELY MANEUVER THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ON FEBRUARY 18, 2005, WHILE MY FATHER AND MOTHER WERE TRAVELING IN MISSISSIPPI ON INTERSTATE 10. WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 10, THE RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW COMPLETELY OUT. ON APRIL 3, 2005, MY FATHER WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AROUND TOWN IN SAVANNAH, GEORGIA. HE NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED VIGOROUSLY SHAKING. AT THIS POINT, HE STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND SAFELY PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN HE LOOKED AT THE TIRES, HE NOTICED THAT THE THREADS WERE SEPARATING FROM THE TIRE. *JB

PARKING BRAKE
I OWN AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND HAVE SEEN THE RECALL # 05V161000 REGARDING THE PARKING BRAKE DEFECT WITH GMC AND CHEVROLET PICKUPS. THE SAME PROBLEM ALSO EXISTS ON THE SUVS OF THE SAME BASIC DESIGN, 2000 AND NEWER TAHOES, SUBURBAN, ESCALADE, ETC. EVERY ONE OF THESE I SEE IN MY SHOP WITH OVER 35,000 MILES HAS A WORN PARKING BRAKE, USUALLY RUINING THE ROTORS WHEN THEY SCRAPE METAL TO METAL. I ALWAYS HESITATE TO PARK NEAR ONE OF THE VEHICLES IN A HILLY AREA, SINCE I KNOW THE PARKING BRAKE IS USUALLY NON-EXISTENT. *NM

STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
I AM CURRENTLY HAVING A RE-OCCURING PROBLEM WITH THE STABILITY TRACK. I HAVE HAD IT SERVICED FOUR TIMES NOW TO NO AVAIL. EACH TIME I TAKE IT IN THEY TELL ME IT IS A COMPUTER PROBLEM, AND THAT IT JUST NEED TO BE RESET. I HAVE YET TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT, BUT TODAY I ALMOST DID. WHILE GOING TO THE CURB ENTERING THE FREEWAY THE STEERING WENT CRAZY AND THE SERVICE STABILITY TRACK NOTICE APPEARED. AFTER I ENTERED THE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE STILL WAS JERKING UNCONTROLABLE. I TURNED OF THE STABILITY TRAC BUTTON IN HOPES OF GAINING CONTROL. THE VEHICLE STILL NOTED THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER BEING TURNED OFF. I AGAIN HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN WOODLAND WHO STATED IT HAD TO BE MY 22" WHEELS. BUT, I FIND THIS HIGHLY UNLIKELY SINCE THE DEALERSHIP ORIGINALLY OFFERED IT TO ME UPON BUYING AND I HAD THIS PROBLEM THREE TIMES BEFORE WITH THE ORIGINAL 17' TIRES. I DO MAINTAIN A RECORD OF ALL SERVICES AND I HAVE A COPY OF WHEN I PURCHASED THE WHEELS, WHICH WAS NOT UNTIL RECENTLY. THIS IS THE SECOND ESCALADE FROM GM THE FIRST ONE WAS DECLARED A LEMON AND THIS ONE APPEARS TO BE TURNING OUT TO BE ONE ALSO.
