Questions About 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Cadillac's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Cadillac tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Escalade ESV’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Escalade ESV is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Escalade ESV transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2012 Escalade ESV’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Cadillac, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Cadillac Escalade ESV leak transmission fluid? Yes. Cadillac Escalade ESV transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
