Fantastic video! I love how calm you were. I need to work next to you because projects like this never go well for me, and my wife hears me yelling across the yard …lol
This is literally the best RUclips step by step video I’ve ever seen it was all broken down and explained and u were able to show every part that needed to come off
Thank you sir for posting this video that is exactly what's wrong with my door handle on my 2008 Cadillac Escalade ESV now I know how to fix it I just accidentally broke at 30 minutes ago, I'm so angry with myself lol but seriously thank you
Great video! Thank you. I always wondered why this was a common issue with the SUV's but not so much in the pickups, despite having the same design of handles. I shrugged it off with a hasn't happened to me attitude, as I've had my silverado for over 10 years. It didn't take me long to realize. It's the little a-holes that ride in the back of the suv's. So now I'm fixing my wife's Escalade. Thanks again for the very clear and descriptive video!
This video was a godsend! Just bought my wife a used 08 Escalade with only 63k miles, but we missed a broken door handle. Quick thought since you give some of us a little too much credit…you might make a suggestion to make sure “the window is rolled UP”. 🤦♂️ But thanks again!
wow seriously good video my man! idk how you got such a good video of getting the bolts inside the door panel! looks like i’ll be doing my door handle soon!
M&T great video!! This will be my second door handle to replace in my 2014 Escalade . Same door too😡I might trying using some epoxy to help support their cheap axx fabrication. Thanks again!! 👍🏻 .
Well done! I appreciate how you show some of the little details that other videos gloss over. I'll be doing this repair on my 2012 ESV as soon as the door handle arrives. Thank you for taking the time to video this, much appreciated!!
Great video thanks for sharing this and i have one question in my cadillac door handle is not pull out like yours but turn loose from the grip of the handle and wont open once it shut what do u think it needs to be replace or fixable ?
Thank you, and you’re welcome. I’m not really sure what your handle is doing without looking at it. Sounds like yours may be a completely different issue. Sorry I can’t be of more help
Awesome video! My handle is broken but its where the back of the handle connects to pull the opening lever inside... anyway, I should be able to fix that even from watching this video! I am also having an issue with my door controls stopped working (no window, no mirror, no door locking)... I've been seeing that it may be the wiring or wiring harness (I already checked the fuses). Do you have any videos on this?
Thank you so much for your generousity to share that. But I've noticed one problem that I have in my Escalade, which is seat leather, it is cracked and its color washed out. Do you know how to self fix it?
My door wasn’t opening on the inside, and it’s been like that for about a year now, my husband was supposed to fix it but never did. So today I went to go open it from the outside and the handle broke off so now I’m stuck it won’t open from the inside or out now. What do you suggest I do?
I know. It’s unfortunate they use such cheap parts especially on something that gets pulled on so many times every single day. I’m sure this won’t be my last time replacing one
I have an 07 the handle was broken when I got it. The replacement came today and that front bolt is stripped. It just spins no matter if I try holding it with pliers or not 😭
Thanks for the video. A few follow up tips for anyone doing this, for the love of God put some plastic down on the inside of the door. That way if you drop a bit or bolt, you can easily pick it up vs trying to get it out of the notch at the bottom of the door. When you do the front doors, pop out the window control and disconnect the wires there first. Be super cautious when tightening the bolts, one turn too much and the entire handle is now useless. Lastly, I am beyond disappointed at Cadillac for the poor design of these. An Escalade, tank of a door, left to be opened by cheap plastic handles and terrible design…
Fantastic video! I love how calm you were. I need to work next to you because projects like this never go well for me, and my wife hears me yelling across the yard …lol
🤣🤣🤣 We all have those days!!!!

Absolutely! It’s not a bad fix at all. Just have to take a moment and do it. Hope the video helps

Thank you! Unfortunately, I haven’t had the wiring issue you are referring to. But if I do, I’ll be sure to post a fix if I can

Thank you for the kind comment. I unfortunately do not know of a permanent fix for the leather seats.
Great video…. Anything different if it’s the drivers front door handle with the key hole?
I’ve not replaced that one yet, but I would imagine it would be the same
Great video. 👊🏽
Appreciate it
500th like👍🏾

Facts
Very informative video.
Thankks Folks

Hopefully you got it

Terrible design
Poor design! Cheaply made too!
O it absolutely is. That’s really the case with most things now. Just gotta figure how to fix them and keep it moving
Great video! Perfect instructions! Thank you!
Thank you!
