The failure mileage was approximately 123,000.

https://www.cadillacforums.com/threads/2007-escalade-stalling-when-rolling-to-a-stop.278037/ It is a well known issue (for those that pull trailers) that 2007-2008 Escalades will stall when slowing down on the highway if the vehicle is pulling a trailer. Everytime I drive on the highway and come to a roll the engine stalls. I have been stuck on the middle lane of the highway, in the middle of intersections, and many other places that are less than ideal. It is a crankshaft position sensor from what I can tell. When the car is under a load, the sensor is positioned at an extreme angle and when the rpms get low the rpms fluctuates and it stalls. The extreme angle is an optimization that cadillac made in an effort to get better fuel economy. It appears that the only way to fix the issue is to get a tune that prevents the sensor from reaching that extreme angle. The dealer pretends to know nothing, yet I find many other people who experience the issue so it would be in their database as a known issue. There are no warnings lights that comes on. The car will just shut down. The only way to prevent the car stalling is to drop to neutral and rev the engine while coming to a stop. Keep reving and when the light goes green drop it to Drive. Its unacceptable and a risk not only to myself but others on the road. I will file a defect petition with a lawyer so this is paid attention to . Please help.

My family and I were leaving home to on vacation last year, when the vehicle suddenly cut off in traffic and refused to start. After getting the vehicle to my home which was 50 miles away. I just told the driver to park it on the street until I got back home, which was seven days later. After arriving back home, vehicle was towed to shop, at which time, NO One could find anything wrong with my 2007 Escalade. So, after driving it for several minutes, the vehicle cut-off again and would not start, soc I phoned my wife, who came with my Expediton and towed me home. After several attempts to start the vehicle, I was informed by a passersby that he had the same problem, that his fuel pump had went out. Well, guess what, it was the fuel pump. So, why is it that certified mechanics at a Cadillac Dearlership couldn't diagnose this problem. It's unfuckinbeliveable that any Dearlership, Pepboys or any other Auto Repair Shop wouldn't explore all options before saying " We can't find nothing wrong" totally inexcusable..

First it started out with the Low Oil Pressure stop engine light had it check out by an independent service center. I was told what the problem maybe, purchase several parts for the SUV but that didn't solve the problem within 72hrs the low oil pressure light stop engine was back on and then this vehicle started cutting off and don't want to crank back again until several hours later. Had a second opinion from a different service center but that didn't work continue to do the same. - By this SUV cutting off in traffic and not cranking back -Was told my mechanic from a service center that it could be the lifter in side the engine. -No -Low oil pressure stop engine warning messages, Check engine light. July 2022

-Traction Control/Stabilitrak light comes on and the major thing is the Camshaft and bearings that cause the LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUT OFF ENGINE WARNING LIGHT.. - When Low oil pressure shuts off the engine light comes on it will cause your vehicle to stall and shut off wherever you at.. -Independent service center - No just the independent service center worker - Yes!

AIR BAG PROBLEMS HAVE NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED WITH NO FIX FOR TOO LONG.

I WAS DRIVING AT THE SPEED OF 75MPH, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I WAS REDUCED TO 30MPH. MY DISPLAY INFORMATION READ STABILITRAK SERVICE, REDUCED SPEED. MY CONCERN IS THAT MY FAMILY AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED DUE TO THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION. I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. SOMEBODY OUT ON THE HIGHWAYS WILL BE INJURED OR KILLED IF SOMETHING IS NOT DONE.

2007 CADILLAC ESCALADE APPARENTLY WAS BUILT WITH SEVERE CAMSHAFT AND BEARING ISSUE. 1ST. STABILITRAK, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND WARNING. STRAIGHT AND LEVEL DRIVING ON CLEAR DRY DAY.
