Escalade’s Engine Problems: What’s Going Wrong?

Owners of the 2021-2024 Cadillac Escalade have reported numerous mechanical failures related to the L87 6.2L V8 engine, which has also been used in other General Motors vehicles, including the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Yukon. According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), key complaints include:

  • Engine stalling or shutting off unexpectedly (even at highway speeds)
  • Excessive oil consumption, leading to engine damage
  • Loss of power steering and braking when the engine shuts off
  • Metal shavings in the oil, causing internal engine wear
  • Frequent check engine lights and misfires

These issues pose serious safety risks, especially when they occur while driving. Several Escalade owners have reported near accidents due to sudden engine failures.
