An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
2 safety recall campaigns, 1 defect investigation (1 open).
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.

Two 2014 CADILLAC ESCALADE ESVs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
