You still have to look for SUVs with such crazy charisma as the Cadillac Escalade of the latest generation on the Russian market! Big, powerful, brutal - it is not surprising that this giant has become the most popular and most recognizable brand model in our country over the years of sales. Compatriots respect Escalade for its proven design, impressive range of options and serious image. Well, the extended version of ESV has no analogues at all in terms of dimensions and capacity indicators. Add to that the ominous rumble of the 6.2-liter V8 with 409 hp. and you will understand why the car is not indifferent even to those who are generally cool towards "Americans".

Minimum price

4.68 million rubles

Maximum price

6.58 million rubles

Among the pleasant "chips" that wander from one generation of "Escalade" to another, there are convenient side steps, which automatically extend when the doors are opened and hide back under the threshold when all the doors of the SUV are closed. The option is really useful and greatly facilitates the process of boarding and disembarking - especially if there are women among the passengers. In the case of many other full-size SUVs, you literally have to climb into the cabin, but here everything is elementary.

True, not all Cadillac Escalade have automatic thresholds - the function remains the prerogative of the most expensive Platinum configuration, which costs 6,280,000 rubles (6,580,000 rubles for an extended Platinum ESV).

Here is what the manufacturer writes about this function:

Being on top is not a problem for the driver and passengers of the new Cadillac Escalade. The unique automatic car step will allow you to leave the car and get into the car with maximum comfort. It slides out gently, inviting you to sit comfortably inside the vehicle or exit your Escalade.

From Cadillac Marketing Materials.

In general, "Escalade" has established itself as a very reliable and unpretentious car, nursing 300-400 thousand kilometers without major repairs even on Russian roads - of course, subject to regular and correct maintenance. Due to the abundance of modern electronics, the latest generation of Cadillac Escalade is no longer so problem-free, although it also has no global problems. But one "joint" has been following this model for a very long time - and this is just the vulnerable mechanism of retractable footpegs, which drove many owners of this model crazy, and which structurally on the new Escalade has not changed in any way.

The fact is that the loops and electric drive of automatic thresholds are subject to daily "bombardment" with road mud, sand, water and reagents. Those who like to ride the Escalade on rough terrain are generally in a high risk zone, since the mechanisms are clogged with mud instantly. As a result, the brackets begin to jam, and eventually stop working altogether. An electric motor is located on one of the two brackets, which is subjected to increased loads and fails. Escalade owners often report similar problems with the footrest control module. Most often, the first symptoms of the imminent death of the mechanism appear after the winter season, when the moving parts of the structure simply sour.

And since automatic thresholds remain a sore spot for this model, we decided to find out how much it would cost to revise the entire mechanism in an authorized service using the example of a 2016 Cadillac Escalade. As usual, official dealers of the Cadillac brand in Moscow helped us with the calculation of costs. And here's what you need to prepare for: a new original footboard bracket complete with an electric motor costs 54,130 rubles, and the second (passive) loop will cost 33,320 rubles. Let's add here the price of the electronic control module for the retractable mechanism - 38,730 rubles, as well as 13,400 rubles for the replacement of the above components by the official service. If you repair jammed thresholds on both sides, the final figure will be as much as 227,030 rubles!

Spare parts

Installation work

Such an impressive amount, of course, will not leave any Escalade owner indifferent. Yes, and you can save here only on expensive work at the officials, since the spare parts themselves on the free market are not much cheaper.

However, everything is far from so sad - problems with automatic footrests can be avoided if you strictly adhere to a few mandatory procedures. Firstly, the folding mechanisms should be thoroughly washed, not only before and immediately after the winter season, but also after each off-road trip. Secondly, the sill brackets require regular lubrication, which is also not difficult. As a rule, such simple periodic maintenance is enough for long and trouble-free operation of the footpegs.

By the way, all of the above, including the price tags, exactly applies to the twin brother Chevrolet Tahoe, which has a similar design of the footpegs. For off-road conditions, it is better to choose a complete set with stationary thresholds.

As for the purchase of a Cadillac Escalade on the secondary side, the jamming mechanism of the thresholds should be a "bell" for a thorough check of the entire structure. The seller's assurances that the problem is being solved by the almighty composition of WD-40 (sometimes it is really solved at the easy stage of wedging) can subsequently result in serious costs. So it's better to diagnose in advance - there will be a reason to bargain.

P.S. If you think that there is nothing terribly expensive in your car, then you simply did not read our new research, stay tuned. We promise new tears every week. :)

When contacting a universal car service, you should always be afraid that there are many incompetent repairmen among its employees.This happens not because the staff is insufficiently trained or does not have much work experience, but only for a banal reason - ignorance of design features. Agree, after all, the repair of the Cadillac Escalade should only be performed by employees of a specialized service and seek help from car services that serve small vehicles, which are so common among ordinary employees of commercial office organizations, it is simply stupid.Just imagine what irreparable consequences can arise if a premium SUV falls into the hands of a person who has dealt with Zhiguli all his life. It is in order to avoid unforeseen situations and there is such a place called a specialized service Cadillac Escalade, which can not only eliminate and identify the problem, but also prevent it in advance, and thanks to the high professionalism of the craftsmen, revealing hidden breakdowns takes a minimum of time.

What exactly can we offer for your car:


Spare parts warehouse - the service has a good warehouse base, which includes new original, new non-original and used parts.

The most necessary consumables for replacing any parts are always available, namely gaskets, bearings, anthers, various fasteners and other frequently requested components that are really difficult to find on sale


Repair shop -service capacities allow you to eliminate queues.

Your car may be taken on the same day.

Competent staff who knows almost everything about your car.

We pay special attention to the equipment of the service. We have a kind of unique equipment, using which our specialists eliminate all types of problems, including body defects


Parsing -from time to time we buy out broken and faulty Eclalides for their analysis. Some of them come to us from the USA as car kits, which allows us to fix any problems.

Parse is especially useful when minor repairs are required.

Of course, buying small things on parsing is simply pointless, but if we are talking about such units as automatic transmission, razdatka or internal combustion engine, then it is worth thinking.

By contacting us, you can count on competent technical support, which in our time is really a rarity

The most common types of work :

Replacing consumables

This implies the replacement of oils, filters, brake pads, spark plugs, a generator belt and others that require constant replacement due to wear of components.

All consumables necessary for maintenance are available.
Licensed fuels and lubricants.
Quality certificates are available.


The chassis of any car requires certain interventions, especially for over 100,000 km. Always carry out steering diagnostics for every service. The weak point is the tie rod ends. It is recommended to change them at least every 40,000 km.

Repair of chassis

Pay particular attention to the condition of the air suspension, steering and braking system.On modifications equipped with air suspension, air bellows often fail. Malfunction can be prevented by minor modifications to extend their lifespan.


The main problems in the transmission data are associated with the development of friction discs. Also, a planetary can deliver minor difficulties. It can be replaced with a strengthened one and you can forget about this problem

Bulkhead automatic transmission

Transmission failure on an Escalade is not uncommon. The malfunction is mainly related to untimely maintenance. In 90% of cases, the culprit is a dirty automatic transmission cooling radiator.In the presence of "planetary", friction discs, brake bands, electronic filling, high pressure pumps.


To sort out the engine is not an easy task. Only a highly skilled minder has the ability to bring the internal combustion engine to mind. As an alternative, we propose to buy a contract engine and this option will probably be preferable

Internal combustion engine bulkhead

And that happens sometimes. In some situations, especially difficult, we offer the installation of a contract engine, since this option is the most profitable. A factory engine is considered the best option and should definitely be considered.In case of minor malfunctions, our specialists will be able to perform all types of work without any problems.


In this article we will tell you about the features of the operation of this vehicle

Design features of the model - Like any other vehicle, the Escalade SUV has a number of features that must be considered. The most important, distinctive feature of this SUV is its curb weight and powerful engine, which we will talk about separately. Thanks to such serious equipment, this car requires a large margin of safety, which is what its designers wanted to present to us. In other ways, they did it.

The first thing we want to draw your attention to ischassis design ... It has a multi-link system and in some cases is equipped with a pneumatic system, which occasionally fails due to a slight design miscalculation. In our conditions, few cars live more than one hundred thousand kilometers without a single intervention in its technical stuffing. This case is no exception. Pneumatic shock absorbers can fail in just a few cases.

Case one - wear of shock absorbers. A breakdown so familiar to any Russian car owner on this SUV occurs, oddly enough, extremely rarely, but at the same time aptly. If at least one shock absorber fails, a comprehensive replacement of all the others is required. Only one thing calms down - on average, the shock absorbers last 150,000 km, which is not so little for such a heavy vehicle.

Case two - depressurization of pneumatic high pressure cylinders. Here, the car developers made a constructive mistake. The reason for the depressurization is trivial. The cylinders themselves are located in a place that is not protected from chemicals. Specialists who carry out repairs to the Cadillac Escalade every day will be able to eliminate this deficiency by changing the design of the cylinders and this problem will be solved once and for all. You can learn more about how to do this from our specialists, who can not only offer a rational solution to the problem, but also ways to prevent it in the future.

Automatic transmission ... Typical malfunctions - gears change for a long time, shock when switching, the car does not accelerate, emergency mode works, drive mode does not turn on. Each of these symptoms is good in its own way. Each of the problems mentioned indicates the need for technical orcomputer diagnostics and, perhaps automatic transmission repair , which must be done only in a specialized service, otherwise, folk experts "bring the car to mind", after which you will have to buy the entire assembly. It is very difficult to say what exactly in the automatic transmission failed. You must first make a diagnosis. If something similar happened in your car, we strongly recommend not to use it. Call a tow truck. It will be much cheaper this way. Probably, the breakdown is insignificant, but if it is not eliminated in time, then it can entail serious consequences. As specialists, we recommend that you always change the oil on time and clean the automatic transmission radiator every six months. Most of the problems are associated precisely with not neglecting technical and timely maintenance.

Transfer case. We will surprise you a little, but the "hand-out" in this case is almost the most durable unit, but again, with regular oil changes. If she refused, then you shouldn't buy a new one. We havespecialized disassembly able to offer a used handout in good condition. Supplied in 80% of cases from the USA. Almost always available.

Engine.The pride of the automaker. 400 horsepower under the hood sounds proud. The design of the power unit is quite simple. Approximately the same motors were on Cadillacs back in the early sixties. Naturally, modern versions are distinguished by many distinctive features, but the essence remains the same - simplicity and reliability. The pleasant sound of the engine came from a reason. There are only two valves on each cylinder. For European and Japanese manufacturers, this is considered small, but not for American ones. The sixteen-valve V-engine, equipped with a unique exhaust system, is so melodic that it is difficult to confuse it with anything else. The power is so high that an SUV weighing over three tons accelerates in just six seconds. Not all European premium cars can boast of similar characteristics. But that's not all. Every car enthusiast, especially one who has operated a German car for a long time, knows firsthand about flushing an injector and nozzles. But the Escalade, thanks to a well-thought-out fuel system and huge valves, is capable of consuming 92nd gasoline of any quality. This fact cannot be ignored if you are traveling in Russia. You can refuel almost everywhere, but this does not mean that you can not pay attention to the quality of fuel at all. Remember in the regions it is very difficult for a foreign car, especially for this one, and if the Cadillac Escalade had to be repaired and not just repairs, but in addition also complex diagnostics, then do not waste time and call a tow truck. It can be said with almost 100% probability that the local Kulibins will not be able to fix the breakdown. We just cited this feature as an example for the rise in prices for European automakers.

The main types of work performed by our service are: oil change in automatic transmissions and internal combustion engines, undercarriage replacement, air suspension repair, gearbox replacement, undercarriage replacement, electrical repair, automatic transmission and engine bulkhead, cooling radiator cleaning, engine overheating elimination.

If you are not currently the owner of Escalade, but really want to buy it, we recommend that you look through the recommendations for its maintenance.

In a nutshell about the car itself. For those who want to buy, but have no experience in dealing with American technology:

It is generally accepted thatcadillac Escalade refurbishment very expensive, but again, depending on what to compare. If we take Porsche Cayenne or Mercedes Gelenvagen as an example, then the Escalade will seem like an economy class, but in comparison with Kia or Hyundai, of course it is expensive. All the faults that we told you about are found on all cars without exception. When purchasing a large SUV, sign up for a test drive beforehand. Not everyone can drive large cars. Having good driving skills, a six-liter engine, a high-quality spacious interior and excellent equipment will give you a lot of impressions, and rare calls to the service station will add joy to the operation of the "American dream". The cost of spare parts is acceptable in comparison with classmates and even partially low. It is worth considering as a status acquisition, but we categorically do not recommend buying this SUV if you know in advance that after a while you will have to say goodbye to it. Parting with such a wonderful car is very difficult, and choosing an alternative replacement will be very problematic. One thing is for sure - after the Cadillac Escalade, you will never switch to a city sedan.
