general problems of the 2012 Cadillac Escalade

Interior dash crack , onstar system stop working.

The car loose power on the road the electronics in car go crazy these may lead to accidents or injuries code c0900 a lot of gm product have the same problem gm needs to do a recall this happen in the highway in rush hour please take action.

Issue started by having the engine cutoff or go into low power mode. Mechanic tried fining power issues, ended up replacing pcm board. Issue remained. Then oil pressure sensor check engine light came on, had a mechanic replace the oil pressure sensor and everything worked for a little while. Next low oil pressure message came up, stating to shut off engine. After reading around, the issue seems to be that the camshaft actuator is being starved of oil due to low oil pressure, that is caused by the camshaft and bearings being bad. This faulty part causes the vehicle to turn off while running, extremely dangerous! how long until someone dies? need gm to make this right. Vehicle is under 80k miles.

Driving normal on a city street for about one hour without any warning the vehicle started acting strange, the doors locked and unlocked, the ac& htg came on, htg&fan for the seats came on, clock blinked, navigation screen blinked on and off, the vehicle sounded as though it would accelerate and then hesitate, it did this at least 4 times, I noticed upon braking each time after the strange occurrences the vehicle appeared to run okay, but only while breaking. After this occurred for about one mile, the strange occurrences stopped and the vehicle drove as should, or at least it seemed okay. After reading some of the blog's of other 2012 Escalade owners having the same problem, gm should take notice, after all the vehicles are not cheap and gm should correct it.

While traveling on the highway the vehicle randomly lost electrical power, lights, door locks, everything and the engine upshifted into second or third gear completely on its own, then refused to accelerate. The electrics would come back on and then go off again. The electronic went completely berserk and presented a huge safety issue for my wife, children and I.

Driving down the highway at 65 mph the dash lights started blinking, radio went on and off, door locks locked and unlocked, revved the engine, cooled seats automatically came on, all dash lights came on like vehicle died(but never died) then went back to normal for about 10 miles and same thing was repeated. The vehicle was driven another 50 miles to home.

This vehicle has a recurring locking problem that cannot be diagnosed or corrected by the dealer.

We have taken this vehicle to the dealer on four (4) different occasions to correct this locking defect without success. This vehicle has been at the dealership for a total of 45 days during 2012 on account of this random locking issue. The service manager at the dealership tells us that this defect is not an isolated issue with our Escalade, as others are experiencing this same unresolved problem, according to both his own experience and his conversations with the Cadillac technical support personnel. . We have contacted the Cadillac customer assistance center about this locking issue, to no avail. They simply deny the problem because it cannot be replicated at the dealership. They refuse to open their data base to us regarding this problem. Perhaps your agency has more clout in making their data base transparent with regard to this safety issue.
