| 摘要： | I was called to a local body shop to look at a 2017 Cadillac Escalade for a customer. Over the phone, I was told that the vehicle goes into "limp mode" ever since he had it at a mechanical repair shop. He mentioned the shop broke a connector for the rearview mirror, and ever since then the vehicle would have a bunch of warning indicators on the dash, the steering effort would get high, and the truck would go into a "limp mode." From what he was saying, this sounded like a simple repair: fix the connector, look like a hero, collect money, and move on. Since you are reading this, you can probably tell that is not how it went... This Caddy has one of those newfangled mirrors with a compass and a video screen that appears when reverse is selected. As I was told, the harness side of the connector was destroyed. The coaxial cable for the video screen was destroyed as well. The shop owner then informed me that the broken harness was only available with the complete headliner, so he did not want to replace it if he didn't have to. |
