My service airbag came on out of the blue as i was driving, than earlier this year my airride control went out air compressor and shocks , in feb my rear bolts on the drive shaft were loose leaking fluid , my rear seat belt is malfunctioning for my son 8 years get stuck, my air conditioning is hot on one side and cold on the other cadillac changed out a module three months later. it still does the same thing but i won't take it back because that's when all the other stuff starting happening rear bolts lose lost massive fluid then the air ride went out air compressor and shocks. when we opened the air compressor up it was rusted as if it had not worked in years so i truly believe that sewelle cadillac damaged my suv everything but the air on one side was getting hot not to mention they had my truck for over 7hrs as i waited in the lobby last year lost my one of my hubs the interior paint is peeling off the video player went out in 2007 . my vehicle stays on when the doors are open and the key is off and out of the ignition the inside light switch comes on sometimes and this truck is almost paid but its a lot of money for all these things to go wrong. there is a lot more. *tr

I have a 2005 cadillac escalade 6.0l engine, with 88,000 miles on it. i had a ticking sound investigated by a local mechanic and he found 3 exhaust manifold bolts, two on one side and one on the other, had spontaneously broken. he indicated before he lifted the hood that was the problem because "that was a common problem with the 6.0l engine". i checked with cadillac owners group and edmunds car space and readily found several similar complaints with the 6.0l gm engine. this should never happen and could lead to an engine compartment fire and/or the leakage of exhaust gases into the same. i had all of the manifold bolts replaced. they didn't appear to be excessively corroded, but rather, the heads of the 3 failed bolts appear to have just popped off. i have the bolts that were removed and replaced. this problem is somewhat insidious because it can mimic the sound that a bad lifter might make. i contacted cadillac customer service and filed a complaint. they offered no recourse. *tr
