As a result, the contact crashed into two tree stumps and the vehicle flipped over. The air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed. The contact sustained head and neck injuries that required medical attention. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but the failure was unable to be determined. The failure mileage was unknown.
The steering was very hard to turn.then the power steering fluid was leaking. Brakes are locking up. But right before all that happened the airbag light went off. Its never been hit or hit anything. The truck was purchased in nov.2012. We got a carfax with the vehicle, it was clean, i looked for recalls and 4 appeared, i also called cadillac, spoke to a dealer and the woman said my vin number has never been recalled, i stated it was in 2004 it was recalled and all the things it was recalled for was what was happening now..at times it was making a noise shifting from park to drive.
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.

Radio sound goes in and out.also door chime does or doesn't work right along with it.it could be a short or the bcm from what i can see.also sometimes the sunroof leaks
The needle on the speedometer of my 2004 cadillac escalade will stick or slowly drop down to 0 while driving. It appears to only happen at night time while the lights are on.
2004 escalade esv; speedometer at about 70,000 miles began to go haywire, sometimes sticking on 0mph other times on 140mph. After a few days of this it stopped working all together. I took the car into a dealership for an electrical issue and told them to please look at the speedometer because its not working. They refused to fix it saying it had more than 70,000 mi...that was 2008 and it hasn't worked since. I estimate my speed by the tachometer (not safe)...original broken part is still installed...i am the original owner of this vehicle.
Speedometer sticks and is not accurate. There is a policy set up to fix only those vehicles under 70000 miles. Why is myvehicle being excluded? i have 88,000 miles on my 2004 cadillac escalade esv. The dealer, key cadillac in edina minnesota will not cover the repair. A broken speedometer that has been proven to be a manufacturer defect is a safety issue. A recall of this problem is justified.
Vehicle has defective speedometer that sticks and will dealer and gm will not cover under recall lawsuit. Too many miles.
My complaint is with your assessment that i might get "confused" by informaition furnished by automakers regarding safety defectsperhaps you are a little confused about your responsibilities. Your arrogance astounds me.it appears you are no better than the fda, a sorry bunch of drug companypuppets

They say they are not familiar with lines routed through the frame, or between frame and body. They recommend a full body removal and they refused.

Had my escalade esv in several times for service on the transmission, at 122,000 my 3rd and overdrive band broke leaving me stranding in gilroy california, not a bad place really nice people.wrote a letter to the chairman of gm, received a phone call from someone named amy, and here is the dialogue:i am sorry this happen we can't do anything, no wonder gm is losing market share.
While driving at 65 mph, smoke started to come out from the back and side of the vehicle. The consumer noticed oil splattered all over the trunk and the road when they pulled over.the vehicle was towed to a dealership, and indicated that the servo wasn't installed properly at the factory, which resulted in transmission to leak oil.*la
-the contact stated thatwould go into gear with the ignition being in the accessory position without depressing the brake.the contact stated that while his son was in the vehicle the key was on accessory position, and the child pulled the gear shift into reverse, causing the vehicle to strike another vehicle.when he took the vehicle to the dealership they stated to the contact that, the reason that you can pull the gear shift is in case you need to tow the vehicle, so you can set it in neutral.contact can provide pictures if needed.
The left rear wheel bearing failed on a new 2004 cadillac escalade esv while driving on the freeway. The abs and traction control warning lights went on and the a service traction control message on the dash. There was no noise or warning prior. After the bearing seized, the axel snapped and the only thing holding the wheel on was the brake caliper. The nearest dealership replaced the entire rear axel, differential assembly. I have heard of wheel failures on chevrolet avalanche truck's also (same chassis). My concern is that there is a component problem with the wheel bearing on these trucks which could be catastrophic.
We have a 2004 cadillac escalade. A few weeks ago the right rear seat warmer caught on fire. We took it to the closest dealership and they bagged it while it was still smoking and put oit back in car and sprayed frebreeze in the car and sent us on our way as if nothing happened at all. They did not even give us something stating we were there. My biggest concern is having it fixed and letting others know so this does not happen to anyone else.our daughter was asleep on top of two pillows laying on the seat.now everything is dragging such as all the windows. It is acting up bad. Thank you for your time.
