2009 Cadillac Escalade Hybrid Recalls, Ratings & Complaints

Incident: February 23, 2020 · Filed: January 4, 2021

I WENT TO REPLACE /REPAIR MY VEHICLE AND THERE WAS A 5 MONTH BACK ORDER FOR A HYBRID BATTERY FROM CHINA. IF I HAVE TO WAIT THAT LONG FOR GM TO PRODUCE PARTS THEY SHOULD RECALL THE VEHICLE. I TRIED TO USE AN AFTERMARKET PROGRAM AND I'M STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH MY TRUCK. HYBRID IS IMPORTANT FOR THE CAR AS THE VEHICLE GOES INTO LIMP MODE WITH LIMITED POWER OR NO THROTTLE RESPONSE AT ALL.

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

TAKATA RECALL: THE RECALL WAS INITIATED MAY 2016, IT IS NOW OCTOBER 2017. THE RECALL STILL READS AS "NO REMEDY." I HAVE BEEN TOLD I AM UNABLE TO SELL MY CAR WITH AN OPEN RECALL. I HAVE BEEN WAITING MORE THAN A YEAR TO SELL MY CAR, AND IT CONTINUES TO DEPRECIATE, WHICH IS CREATING A LOSS FOR ME. ADDITIONALLY, I AM UNABLE TO CHOOSE TO DRIVE A DIFFERENT VEHICLE. PLEASE ADVISE.

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!
