Some Cadillac Escalade owners report experiencing frustrating issues related to the EVAP (Evaporative Emission Control System), leading to failed inspections due to emissions concerns. These problems often stem from a malfunctioning EVAP system, which can trigger warning lights on the dashboard and result in the vehicle failing emissions tests. Additionally, certain diagnostic conditions must be met for the EVAP system to be properly evaluated, including maintaining the fuel level between 1/8th and 7/8th full and ensuring the engine is at operating temperature. It is crucial for owners to address these EVAP system issues by consulting a qualified mechanic or dealership to ensure their vehicle meets the necessary emission standards for inspection.
