2007 Escalade Problems by slw1

I've had my 2007 Escalade for four months and have experienced problems twice now with the stabilitrac and traction control. My car was in for repairs for 15 days because the dealer could not get the part to fix the stabilitrac problem. The part would be located and before the dealer could get the O.K. to get it, the part would be gone...which makes me think this problem is widespread. Has anyone else had problems such as this?

You should obviously get whatever you want, but...
 
The GL450 is just too much of a wagon to be considerred alongside the escallade. The brakes issue i totally understand, Cadillac's are fine, but they could add it in for marketing.
 
However on Marketing the escallade has the image the GL will probably never have. While i have seen both i do not find the interrior of the MB to be better than the Escallade. The rear seats issue sucks, I agree. It is going to hurn GM in the long term, and they will either have to invest in an independand rear end to make the seats fold flat, or axe the whole platform due to fuel consumption.
 
The new set of crossovers comming out will not help sales of GMT900's. I hope GM makes the rear independant, its one of the few things these trucks really lack.

The GL450 was in a recent comparison article in Motor Trend, which put the GL against the '07 Escalade and Range Rover. What was funny when I saw the pics in the magazine, I thought they were comparing a Toyota RAV4 to the Escalade and Range Rover. Mercedes hasn't found a design in this rendition that sets it apart from the crowd.
 
From the comparison, the GL was found to be the overall winner, but I personally could never get over its econo styling.

all LED marker/tail lights
 
I was behind an '07 at a traffic light and noticed that the trademark Cadillac high-center stoplight that runs the width of the top of the rear end was only 30% functional. Only the middle 30% of the light actually had functioning LEDs in it. The rest of the light didn't light up. Was this particular Escalade defective or is this how it is designed?

It's not defective, but certainly underscores GM's penny pinching ways. They probably saved $5.00 not putting in the whole line of LED's.
 
I could understand if there is a legal restriction to the "brightness" or some other DOT consideration, but in that case, they shouldn't have made it appear like a defect.

Wow, that is so lame. I'd like to hear the excuse GM gives for that one!
 
If I had one of those I would want to modify it so that the otherwise non-functional left and right sides of it could be put to use as extra "high" turn signals!
