I am having an electrical short that is shutting down everything while I'm driving or stopped, it makes driving it Dangerous and Scary. It looks like the recall from 2014 that describes everything I'm experiencing. Recall 14515 that talks about a Chassis Control Module that controls a lot of things including the fuel pump and more electrical components to list. I have a vehicle that is Dangerous to drive, im a Disabled Veteran and am tied to a Powered Chair. I have called Cadillac and they say that my Escalade is not included and they will do nothing for me. I'm at a lose as what to do, I could just sell it to someone else and let them deal with it or get killed in it. Either way is not a good choice. Let me know what you would do if you were in my position.

The car goes into limp mode, engine reduced power, stability control off, traction control off. Check engine light comes on. Car will not drive over 20mph happens when I hit bumps or potholes in the road. Check engine code P2137 I've replaced the maf sensor, throttle position sensor (gas pedal) and the whole throttle body. Still not fixed. I've done extensive research online and in forums. This is a common problem and I don't know what else to do. My car is at the service department at the dealership now.

While starting the vehicle there was a loud series of popping sounds followed by some smoke which came from under the hood. The engine was quickly turned off and the smoke cleared. The hood insulation shows a slightly damaged/stained/heat effected area above the alternator. The vehicle was subsequently restarted several times and has been checked by the dealer and no problems could be found or duplicated.

Escalade 8-cyl

  • 105 miles
Purchased brand new 2014 Cadillac Escalade from penske in torrance ca, beginning of Sept. 2014. Vehicle refused to start on at least four occasions. Then while driving into a gas station, the vehicle lost power and power steering, causing a crash at a gas station. I am unable to get penske in torrance ca to look into the problem. They are declining to do anything to look or fix the problem.
