Questions About 2009 Cadillac Escalade’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Cadillac's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Cadillac Escalade? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your Escalade towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

  • Does my Escalade's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Cadillac Escalade’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Cadillac's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Cadillac Escalade leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Cadillac Escalade can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Escalade ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
