I’ve had my 2002 Escalade 6.0L since 2004. I’m presently at 142K miles. Thankfully, the ignition switch is the ONLY one of these five problems I’ve had recently. It’s been a GREAT SUV and I just had it repainted and installing NEW seat covers. I pray I can keep it another 100K miles!
i have a 2005 escalade with 275k miles its still beautiful ive experianced all these and more i just keep getting these lil things fixed the truck still run amazing
My 2004 Escalade Drivers side was stuck full hot when set at 60 degrees. Passenger and rear was blowing cold. If you cant control the actuators, try an actuator door recalibration for free before buying unnecessary parts. Recalibration Steps: 1. IGN on - do not start 2. Push AUTO on AC control 3. IGN OFF 4. Pull HVAC/ECAS CB in engine bay CB panel - reinstall after 1 min 5. Start Vehicle - AC control should default to 74 degree and in AUTO - Let run for 3-4 minutes while calibrating. DONT ADJUST ANY AC Controls in this process. 6. Ignition OFF for 10-30 Seconds 7. Start Vehicle - Test AC controls..... Hope this helps somebody!
I bought my neighbor's 2005 EXT a few weeks ago. 177K for $7,500. Rides great and everything works so far! *knock on wood* I know in the previous three years he replaced the mass air flow sensor, the front impact sensor, the level ride air compressor, inner tie rod arms, idler arms, pitman arms, oil sending unit, right outer CV boot, alternator and battery, and exhaust manifold gaskets. It was a long list for 3 years...
I've had my 2002 since it came off the lot. The engine is perfect. Only A few issues over the years Ill rank them worse to minor: 100-120kmiles, the Car turns off when turning left, very dangerous, the solution was to clean the throttle body. Transmission leak issue happened twice over the 250K miles. 100-120K Replace alternator. 130-145k Cluster failure. 240k Throttle body sensor failed Fuel Pump had an Issue, I never replaced it but somehow hitting the gas tank with a bat solved the issue for good. This car has been across the country multiple times, from niagra falls to rosarito mexico. I have pushed it hard, even taken it off roading. I always maintained the oil and coolant. I expect it will do 500k miles, She runs like the day it came off the lot.
2004 = Instrument cluster, rear window motor, hubby being snuggy and warm on driver's side while I freeze on the passenger side. Ran it low on gas one day and the engine light came on. Took it for testing and it was just the gas cap wasn't tight enough. (It's still an Escalade so it's worth it.) After the junky Nissan Xterra, breaking all the time and leaving us on the side of the road umpteen times, it is like driving in a brand new Tesla vehicle. (to my family anyway.)
I've haven't had any of these issues. I have a hunter green 2002 Escalade and just hit 130k miles. I've had this car since '03...bought it with 18k miles on it. First ten years only drove on weekends while I put miles on my 2004 Corolla (has 235k and still rolling). I stay on top of maintenance and repair/replace before it's needed. Had someone off me $15k for it last week. Hubbie wants to get a new one...Not! Best. Car. Ever.
I AGREE! Bought my 02, in 04. Presently at $142K. I hope to have it for another 100K. Just got a new paint job an Cadillac 22” wheels today, and will install new leather seats this weekend!
Wondering have you had issues with your rear air suspension or converted to springs? Also have you rebuilt the transmission at this point? Thanks Vincent
The number 1 issue with that generation of escalade is the ABS systems failing. I have an 02 and Cadillac discontinued the original 10 prong ABS Pump, Module, and The Master Cylinder. I've sent off the parts and had them rebuilt and now my calipers are locking up on my rotors almost catching on fire.
💥 My three problems, 1- the seat heater on drivers side clicks on then 2 seconds later turns off. 2- I get AC to blow out of the center and third row but not heat. 3- my from differential is making a humming noise that increases with speed. 138,000 miles on an ‘03. I know the first two are quite common but where not mentioned.
My son bought an 06 EXT. And he is very rough on it. Takes it out mudding all of the time. Paid $7500. But it is time for tie rods pitman and idler arm. Upper and lower control arm bushings and what not. But so far no other issues. He says he loves his truck. Wants to lift it. And will replace anything he needs to keep it going. Oh yea we did replace the waterpump the first week he had it. But thats it so far.

I want one of these cars. So much simpler, classier and more reliable than the stuff they’re making today. My only thing is that it’s a gas guzzler. Trying to decide if I want to spring for one as my first personal car that I own for work.
My 03 blew the heater core lines and I immediately fixed it, took it on a test drive and the next day it won’t start/crank at all. What should I look for first? Note when the line broke it sprayed antifreeze everywhere on the passenger side 🤷🏾♂️
I have an 02 escalade that can be only used either 66F or 82F on all vents but can't adjust the temperature to how I want to be comfortable in. Would replacing an actuator fix it?

I have a 2002 Escalade with the stability control light issue and i put in led bulbs in gauge panel my gauges jump up and down sometimes or go flat is this from the led bulbs or something else ?
Have a 03. The entire transmission gave out, I remember my dad having to take off the entire front end and replace it, it broke down at a winn Dixie, and you have to slam the driver side rear door, for it to shut good. The battery dies if you don’t use it (randomly),It has service airbag stability, and service stability messages, several gauges broke, had to be fixed, the lock on the same door I talked about is broke, it has a Chevy ignition, and currently sits in my back yard, driver side tires flat, and oil pressure gauge broken, with the battery, dead again.
I have a 02 and it have the “service stability system” and I don’t how to fix it, it very unstable while driving over 40m/p, o don’t know what to do. Any idea? I already replaced the 4 shocks, the air compresor and rear springs and still feeling like a boat on the sea.
I have an 03 escalade ext. Never had a single one of these issues. The forums state issues with the autoride system, which I did have issues with. Why wasn't THAT one if the top 5?
I have 02 escalade 6.0 if anyone know why when i am driving it pulls to the right side when i am going 40 and up and also when i am driving and then I see is stability the service
I’m going to buy a 2004 ESV with 110k miles The front differential is making a little bit of noise around 30mph on acceleration or de-acceleration buy it’s zero accidents and garage kept so I’m OK with it.
i have an 04 and im starting to get minor issues like radiator sprung a leak and i replaced it water pump is bad and i have a new one on the way just slowly gets worse
Anyone looking to buy a 03 Escalade, she’s got a viper alarm system, 6.0, 170k miles running strong and exhaust system, couple other things but I bought to resell she’s a good car especially with all the finishing touches I left
By any chance have you changed yours yet ? My front A/C is warmer than the rear A/C all the time and the driver side blows hot sometimes. I can turn ignition off and back on and it temporarily fixes that problem. Seems like I’m going to have to replace the actuators.
Hello, I need help. I have a Cadillac Escalade 2003-6.0L. The problem is that the torsion bolt on the right side lifts, but not on the left side. What could be the problem? excluding shock absorbers and camber bushings.

i have a 2002 escalade 5.3L i recently had an engine wash recommended by a mechanic due to a oil leak he couldn’t find after the engine wash my truck went into reduced engine power i cleaned out the throttle body and changed the tps but still in reduced engine power mode….hellllpppp lol
What about to clear/ reset lights on your 2002 Escalade cluster? I bought one from Facebook market place , but don’t know if the guy I got it from got it from a wrecked Escalade or the cluster was just not working. I put it in my 01 Silverado & they still didn’t go away gauges still work & the needles seem to be fine
As I found out top problem can be ground wire issue. If you don't systematically clean ground wires you may end up with transmission that slips and then fails. Look up for the solution on youtube how to clean those wires and save the transmission. I was on my 3rd tranny when I found out about the problem. I was gonna get rid of my Escalade but since I have diagnosed the problem I'm a keeper. Don't believe those who tell you that the escalades have bad transmissions.
Hello this is a different question from this video but I seen you posted this video 11 hours ago... so I’m asking about a 2012 Chevy impala 3.6l and I recently found a baby drop with fresh transmission oil behind the trans plug...

Hi i have a 2002 Escalade. My dash has erratic issues that would turn on all warning lights and misplace my cluster needles while driving. How can i fix this
I've had 3 of the 5 happen on my '03 with146k. Passenger door, instrument cluster, & air .... in that order 🙄 Wasn't too much of a pain in the wallet to fix them
That’s actually not as bad as many and I mean many vehicles lol. I mean you didn’t even include a single problem about the engine in the top5 which is a tremendous sign of a good vehicle. Bad water pumps, Electrical work, transmission blowing out easy is something I would consider problems.
I have an 03' does anyone else have an issue with the lumbar support going out and staying fully out? It feels like I'm driving with a metal bar down my back and can't adjust anything even though I've tried everything.
I have an '05 with 145k. replaced oil pressure sending unit, replaced all shocks with standard shocks, odo and gear indicator lights have all but faded away and need to be replaced. replaced right-side HVAC actuator. replaced fogged-over headlights (eBay $200 for the pair!)... single CD player no longer works. replaced all brake lines (totally rusted away).

Don't forget the dried up brittle o-ring on the oil pump pick up tube ....that can destroy the engine .... Engine looses oil pressure and sounds like a diesel...ask me how I know?(don't ask)
My 04 Escalade just started having an issue where the passenger side works fine but when trying to adjust the temp on the drivers side it fluctuates to random temps... please help
I have a 04 Escalade and all my lights inside the car and headlights are blinking fast I can’t drive at night can someone help me on what it might be I’ve replaced headlight relay not It. I’ve replace fuses not it either
These trucks are so easy to steal. Majority were stolen by just defeating the steering lock and pushing the vehicle away. Later they added an immobilizer

I have an '05 with 145k. replaced oil pressure sending unit, replaced all shocks with standard shocks, odo and gear indicator lights have all but faded away and need to be replaced. replaced right-side HVAC actuator. replaced fogged-over headlights (eBay $200 for the pair!)... single CD player no longer works. replaced all brake lines (totally rusted away).
Wonder if you fixed the parasitic draw and if so where was rhe culprit?
Bro all of the above 430,000 all og

My Yukon Denali had the same issue. It needed a new water pump. Had no issues after that.
nothing on my left side door works (window,seat warmer,door lock etc..) how do i fix this? i have 2002 cadillac escalade 6.0
Could be a bad fuse or maybe your wire harness is unplugged or damaged.
Don't forget the dried up brittle o-ring on the oil pump pick up tube ....that can destroy the engine .... Engine looses oil pressure and sounds like a diesel...ask me how I know?(don't ask)
My 04 Escalade just started having an issue where the passenger side works fine but when trying to adjust the temp on the drivers side it fluctuates to random temps... please help
I'll help you bruh! Take it to a mechanic! 🤣😂
271k miles on my 05 and I've never had any of these issues. Weird.
That's the best dam generation. Truck gm ever built. They are all over marketplace with 350k miles. None of the generations after that make it 350k
Failed to mention the manifold head bolts
Must have the Northstar?
I need help with a question please on my escalade
+Lequon Mcdougle Thanks for watching! What is your question?
Lock actuator and hvac system failure for me. No biggie at all though!
You can feel like cold air wants to come out but very weak?
I have ton of common issues but i have non e of these issues
I have an 05 ext and none of those problems exist in mine. My issue my transmission went kapoop
I have a 04 Escalade and all my lights inside the car and headlights are blinking fast I can’t drive at night can someone help me on what it might be I’ve replaced headlight relay not It. I’ve replace fuses not it either
Some ppl having problems with deffirential
Funny. I have a 02 and I have 3 out of 5 of these problems. But why all the cheap plastic on these trucks?
It's cheaper for GM to make. Look at all the SUVs GM made during 2000-2007 the interiors in all of them all look very similar.
I have a 2002 and the transmission failed at around 160k miles.
What did you do and how much did it cost you? I'm considering an 05 with 86K on it to replace my 05 Yukon with 213K
@@retroguy9494 I replaced it with a rebuilt transmission. The mechanic charged me $1400 for the replacement with labor included.
None of the listed problems are that frequent.
What does it mean when car doesn't do anything?? Lights dont come on or anything?
Check your battery harness, make sure everything is tight!
I'm trying to convince someone to buy one of these instead of a "newer" transverse.
+Toad Phillips Thanks for the feedback!
Just bought a 03 for 4K. What that a rip off?
No
I paid 9k for my 03 about 3 years ago. Had 52,000 miles on it.
How many miles honestly?
No
And the head gasket northstar engine
Air Ride?
Don't forget the draining battery
+Selcuk G. Thanks for the tip!
These trucks are so easy to steal. Majority were stolen by just defeating the steering lock and pushing the vehicle away. Later they added an immobilizer
PUSHING it away?????? Do you have any idea how much these things weigh?
What if my 4x4 don’t wanna turn off
