- Recall2021 escalade
Rear wheel lock-up can increase the risk of a crash.
- Recall2023 escalade
Without a warning light, the vehicle may be driven with low brake fluid, which can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.
- Recall2024 escalade
Without a warning light, the vehicle may be driven with low brake fluid, which can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.
- Recall2023 escalade
A broken suspension bolt can result in misalignment of the rear wheel, increasing the risk of a crash.

NHTSA closed investigation PE21010
Air Bag Malfunction
- Recall2022 escalade
DRLs that do not deactivate as intended may result in a glare, reducing visibility, and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2023 escalade
DRLs that do not deactivate as intended may result in a glare, reducing visibility, and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2021 escalade
Daytime Running Lights that do not deactivate as intended may cause a glare, reducing visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2021 escalade
A seat belt with a deformed rivet may not properly restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
- Recall2022 escalade
A seat belt with a deformed rivet may not properly restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

Brake Vacuum Pump Failure
- Recall2021 escalade
Driveshaft failure can cause a sudden loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2021 escalade
An engine stall increases the risk of a crash.
- Recall2021 escalade
The air bag malfunction indicator light may fail to warn the driver of a problem with the air bag, increasing the risk of injury.

Air Bag Malfunction
- Recall2021 escalade
A damaged seat belt can break during a crash, increasing the risk of injury to the occupant.
- Recall2020 escalade
Over cured tires may develop a break in the sidewall resulting in sudden air loss or a belt edge separation which could lead to a tread/belt loss. Either condition can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2018 escalade
A decrease in brake assist can increase the brake pedal effort and distance required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2020 escalade
Over-pressurization can crack the fuel pump and cause leaks, increasing the risk of a fire in the presence of an ignition source.
- Recall2015 escalade
As the vacuum level drops, the brake assist decreases, increasing braking effort, extending the distance required to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2016 escalade
As the vacuum level drops, the brake assist decreases, increasing braking effort, extending the distance required to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2017 escalade
As the vacuum level drops, the brake assist decreases, increasing braking effort, extending the distance required to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.

Brake Vacuum Pump Failure
- Recall2015 escalade
If EPS assist is lost and then suddenly returns, the driver may have difficulty steering the vehicle, especially at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2015 escalade
A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
- Recall2016 escalade
A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
- Recall2015 escalade
A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
- Recall2016 escalade

- Recall2017 escalade
A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
- Do not drive2016 escalade
Inadequate welds may allow the control arm to separate from the bushing, compromising steering and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Recall2015 escalade
Inconsistent air bag deployment increases the risk of personal injury in the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment.
- Recall2015 escalade
In the event of an accident, an air bag that only partially deploys increases the risk of occupant injury.
- Recall2015 escalade
The overheated exhaust components may melt nearby plastic parts and may result in an engine fire.
