Occasionally when applying the brakes, the brakes lock up and the car begins to slide. This started a few months after buying the car -- it was returned to the dealer -- this has happened over and over again-- examples: braking suddenly on rough road ("the washboard effect"), braking on wet pavement while driving slowly through a mall parking lot - braking after leaving a car wash -- braking at a stop sign, braking suddenly anytime -- naturally this is very scary -- I do not want anyone (husband, children) to drive the car except myself as I have become attuned to the problem and am constantly aware that it might happen -- I have repeatedly taken the car to the dealer (I have the forms) my husband also had a meeting with the owner, john skinner -- they adjust the brakes and then tell me that I will just have to live with the problem - -I am aware of others who have had this same problem -- I was wondering if a recall might be a possiblity -- we have kept all the records where we have taken the car back repeatedly with this same problem-- the last time I went, they actually charged me to adjust the brakes (although this really doesn't help -- within a few days it had happened again) --I was told that Cadillac was aware of this problem and it had been fixed on the newer models of Escalades- now my original dealer has sold the Cadillac part of his dealership and I am going to have to deal with a new owner -- I would appreciate any help or feedback you could give me on this matter. I live out on a lake and have to drive my child into school and activities several times a day and purchased the car to be a safe mode of transportation for us. Thank you.
