-Traction Control/Stabilitrak light comes on and the major thing is the Camshaft and bearings that cause the LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUT OFF ENGINE WARNING LIGHT.. - When Low oil pressure shuts off the engine light comes on it will cause your vehicle to stall and shut off wherever you at.. -Independent service center - No just the independent service center worker - Yes! Start out with the Traction Control/Stabilitrak light and then the Low OIL PRESSURE SHUT OFF ENGINE WARNING LIGHT..January of 2022.

First it started out with the Low Oil Pressure stop engine light had it check out by an independent service center. I was told what the problem maybe, purchase several parts for the SUV but that didn't solve the problem within 72hrs the low oil pressure light stop engine was back on and then this vehicle started cutting off and don't want to crank back again until several hours later. Had a second opinion from a different service center but that didn't work continue to do the same. - By this SUV cutting off in traffic and not cranking back -Was told my mechanic from a service center that it could be the lifter in side the engine. -No -Low oil pressure stop engine warning messages, Check engine light.

I have a 2007 cadillac escalade and on the dash it will read oil pressure low stop engine and the oil light will come on then back off. Upon research from a shop mechanic he said that it was common for those 6.2 motors for the cam bearings to go bad causing no oil to reach the top of the motor and could cause engine failure and motor to come apart and kill someone

2007 cadillac escalade apparently was built with severe camshaft and bearing issue. 1st. Stabilitrak, traction control light and warning. Straight and level driving on clear dry day. This is when engine was running on highway and engine fully at operating temperature. This forced transmission/engine into limp mode. Mccaddon dealership installed complete transmission cost over $8,000---- issue came back. Then they replaced fuel pump. Then they replaced oil pump which seemed to fix issue, cost $2084.04. Now at 225,000 miles oil pressure low, stop engine light, and warning gong. No oil leaks, oil levels always watched and maintained with regular changes. Took into dealership thinking they would replace oil pressure sensor. Instead they charged 130.00 to diagnose that engine was losing pressure. Their solution, replace engine at cost of $10,000. Now online search indicates that this is actually caused by bad camshafts and bearings. Not sure what I will do, but doubt I will pay dealership to replace engine at cost of $10,k. Gm needs to own up to defective part and recall. Some would say what do you expect from car with over 200k miles? I expect it to be diagnosed correctly, root cause identified and fixed first time. Or at least 2nd time, or 3rd time. Other bills on this car for various things from manifold bolts $1220 which included a power steering hose, axle wheel bearing $704, ball joints, $2015,engine seals$831.77.

The issue is with vvt and the camshaft. Took to auto shop because my vehicle was going into limp mode. Which caused my transmission to go bad. The cam accuator and cam bearings bad.caused me to have to have transmission rebuilt.still didn't fix problem had new cam position sensor, accuator, high volume oil pump, and the mechanic saying low oil pressure due to bad camshaft and bearings. Saying I need a new engine or complete engine rebuild. When I drive the vehicle traction control light comes on and vehicle goes into limp mode and stalls when comes to stop.have to reset engine light to run again.
