2006 CADILLAC STS Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

WHEN MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS, THE CAR STALLS TEMPORARILY NOT ALLOWING ME TO ACCELERATE OR ACCLIMATE TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING, THE TRACTION ACTIVE SYMBOL IS DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD. WITHIN A FEW SECONDS IT SEEMS TO ALL WORK AGAIN, HOWEVER IT SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AS OTHER CARS ARE EITHER ASSUMING I WILL BE AT THEIR SPEED, OR ASSUME I AM ALLOWING THEM TO GO WHEN IN FACT I AM STUCK. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND I AM BECOMING SCARED THAT THIS MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CADILLAC STS. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN ONTO A THREE LANE HIGHWAY FROM A COMPLETED STOP, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE STABILITRACK INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STABILITRACK WOULD NEED TO BE SERVICED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,700.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CADILLAC STS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE THE SERVICE STABILITY WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

I WAS TRAVELING THROUGH THE COUNTRYSIDE ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. MY CAR SUDDENLY STALLED, I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND SLAMMED INTO AN ON COMING CAR IN THE OTHER LANE. THIS CAUSED PERMANENT TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY AS OUR AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED CAUSING US TO SLAM OUR HEADS OFF WINDSHIELD AND SIDE DOOR WINDOW. *TR

THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON A SIDE STREET AT 20 MPH, AND ALSO SHUT OFF 5 TIMES AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH. THE CLUSTER PANEL TURNED OFF, BUT THE RADIO STAYED ON. THE ODOMETER SHOWED A MESSAGE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM). I PULLED OVER, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE EACH TIME. THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIP SAID THAT REAR AXLE PINION SEAL WAS THE ONLY RECALL FOR MY STS, BUT I AM EXPERIENCING NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V020000 , AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V007000 ALSO. *TR

AFTER PURCHASING A USED 2006 STS AWD FROM CADILLAC NJ IN DECEMBER 2009, WIFE NOTICED WHILE MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS ON SMOOTH PAVEMENT, CAR SEEMS TO STALL TEMPORARILY NOT ALLOWING ME TO ACCELERATE FOR A FEW SECONDS AND MESSAGE TRACTION ACTIVE IS DISPLAYED. JANUARY 18, 2010,I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP TO COMPLAIN. THEY SAID PROB BAD GAS IN LINES. PUT NEW GAS IN AND GAS TREATMENT FOR WATER IN TANK. DID THAT, DIDN'T HELP. FEBRUARY 1, 2010 I RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP TO COMPLAIN IT WAS STILL DOING IT ON OCCASION. I ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS VEHICLE. GOT A NO RESPONSE. MAY 2010 BROUGHT CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP TO COMPLAIN. BY THIS TIME MY WIFE HAS REFUSED TO DRIVE IT FOR SAFETY REASONS (PEOPLE THINK SHE IS LETTING THEM INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHEN CAR SLOWS DOWN). LOOKED ON INTERNET AND FOUND OTHER COMPLAINTS. I WAS...

CAR LURCHED TO LEFT INTO ONCOMING LANE, BRAKING AS IT VEERED LEFT. HAD I BEEN DRIVING 70 ON FREEWAY, I BELIEVE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. *TR
