2005 Cadillac CTS Electronic stability control Problems

“First ECM module needing to be replaced, we replaced it then after that started running rough, took it to auto zone, 12 codes popped up. Did normal maintenance of vehicle, oil change spark plugs . Then a few days later we were on the highway and all of a sudden we lost all power, pushed on accelerator no power, front end started shaking, so pulled over, vehicle was very hot and smells like gas, had it towed compression test were no good, was told gasket were bad, also was told to check the recall list. Im up set because our children were in the vehicle with us. …”

“When driving down the expressway my car stability system spontaneously engaged causing my car to suddenly jerk to the left. It felt as though the car dropped a little on that side and the tires locked up. I thought it was going to flip my car but luckily I was able to correct it in time. This has happened several more times since then, randomly, and at all different speeds, always throwing me to the left (into oncoming traffic!). My stability system engaged message pops up on the screen. …”

“I was traveling approximately 65 MPH on a 3 lane highway, while mainitaning a constant speed. Suddenly all power to the vehicle cut off including my power steering and braking. In a panic as I as coasting I was fortune enough to weave my way across 2 lanes to the side of the highway and roll to a complete start. After gathering myself I turned the ignition from the run position to off. I looked up and noticed there was smoke coming out from under the hood.

“In november 2011 I could not take the key from the ignition of my car.then in 2012 the same problem occurred on about the same month, costing me a little under $900.00 both times.the problem mention was stated internal failure of engine control module.the module computer chip, went out both times. Now I am having problems with the car shaking after refueling and the check engine light is on. I understand that there was a recall of this model car in 2010. I brought this n 2011 from ford of rock hill in south carolina. There were no mention of any recalls.”

“Vehicle shutters/hesitates (like the brakes are engaging) and then jerks violently to the right into next lane. Service stability sys message comes on and then goes off.

Internet is loaded with folks with exact same problem and Cadillac says there are no recalls and they can't diagnose the problem unless they can duplicate the issue while a tech is driving it. I am afraid to drive the car. …”
