2007 Cadillac CTS

Defect. General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V vehicles manufactured October 6, 2003, to March 15, 2007, and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V vehicles manufactured June 23, 2005, to March 15, 2007. In the affected vehicles, the electrical terminals of the fuel pump module may overheat resulting in the melting of the flange material.

Risk. If the flange melts, a hole may be created allowing the fuel pump to leak fuel, causing the vehicle to stall, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. Additionally, leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

Remedy. GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, free of charge. GM sent out interim notices in late October. The recall began on March 12, 2015. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 14405.

Defect. This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. General Motors LLC (GM) notified the agency on July 2, 2014 that they are recalling 554,328 model year 2003-2014 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured August 16, 2001, to April 28, 2014, and 2004-2006 Cadillac SRX vehicles manufactured March 20, 2003, to August 11, 2006. In these models, the weight on the key ring and/or road conditions or some other jarring event may cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position, turning off the engine.

Risk. If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy. GM will notify owners, and dealers will install two key rings and an insert in the key slot or a cover over the key head on all ignition keys, free of charge. The recall began on September 15, 2014. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 14172.

Vehicle primarily failed while parked at owner residence [XXX] and remained inoperable for approximately three weeks prior to tow to Cadillac dealership. The ignition key became trapped and could not be removed. A manual override release beneath the driver-side steering column was required to free the key — confirming the lock was held electronically, not mechanically jammed. Fault confirmed by authorized Cadillac dealer: intermittent electrical fault within the shifter assembly lock mechanism. A similar intermittent concern was previously documented on this vehicle in 2011 (logged as "Customer Concern Not Duplicated"), establishing a recurring pattern. GM Technical Service Bulletin 07-07-30-032D (2006–2011 Cadillac CTS, automatic transmission) explicitly documents this exact condition: key sticking, Shift to Park DIC message, shifter binding, and battery drain. OEM replacement part is now discontinued. Manufacturer declined goodwill or recall coverage. Dealer refuses repair unless owner assumes full financial responsibility for a used part with no warranty and no guarantee against recurrence. Safety concern: ignition/shift interlock failure causing vehicle immobilization, key entrapment, and loss of transportation for an elderly owner dependent on the vehicle for medical care. Defect evades shop diagnosis due to intermittency. No safe OEM remedy exists. Prior recall: NHTSA 14V394000 / GM Campaign 14172 addressed same interlock system. Current failure represents recurrence be

The contact owned a 2007 Cadillac CTS. The contact stated that while driving 40-43 MPH, a bicyclist suddenly pulled in front of the vehicle. The contact veered away from the bicyclist, causing the vehicle to crash into a utility pole. The utility pole was damaged. The air bags failed to deploy, and the contact hit the chest and head against the steering wheel. The contact immediately went to the hospital and was provided medical assistance. The contact sustained contusions on the chest and on the head, and the contact sustained bruises on the left and right legs. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed and totaled by the insurance company. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure was approximately 71,000.

Brakes failed. This happened at low speed and control was kept of the vehicle. Upon inspection, it was seen the flexible brake line connecting the driver's side brake caliper had separated at the point it transitions from rubber to metal. It happened immediately after turning right at a stop light and there was no warning. The design of the transition meant that there was no leak of fluid (warning) until the connection had corroded to the point it lost its strength, failed and completely detached. The local GM dealership was called and they advised there was no recall and would only work on the vehicle for payment, so it was not taken to them. The components were replaced on both sides. Old parts have been kept.

One day when I went to sit in the front passenger seat a message came on the Driver Information Center displaying, "SERVICE AIR BAG" and then I notice that the indicator light on the dash was displaying the Air Bag warning light, and the rearview mirror was showing that the passenger air bag was off. Without the air bag working I cannot ride in the front seat of the car and due to the fact that if we are in a car accident the air bag will not deploy. The dealer has been able to reproduce this issue several times over the last 13 years. Yes, I have been dealing with this issue since 2012, every time I ask to have the seat diagnosed, they say "No we will not be doing that for you" - [XXX] and [XXX] . INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The service air bag light has been on for several years. I called a few years ago and was told it was a recall and Cadillac would stand by it. It would not expire I took it to the Cadillac place. They would not honor it

THE SELLER LIED ABOUT EVERYTHING! THE FIRST QUESTION I ASKED WAS IF THE CAR WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. HE BRAGGED ABOUT BEING A MECHANIC, AND DOING ALL THE WORK ON THE CAR, SO EVERYTHING IN THE CAR IS IN, "TIP TOP SHAPE." HE REPLIED, "NO, NEVER!" HE DID NOT ALLOW US TO RIDE THE CAR ON THE INTERSTATE BEFORE THE PURCHASE, CLAIMING IT WAS ILLEGAL. 10 MINS AFTER LEAVING THE CAR LOT, THE CAR CUTS OFF AND IS UNABLE TO CRANK BACK UP. THE SELLER MEETS US AND CLAIMS IT THE BATTERY. A "NEW" BATTERY WAS PLACED IN THE VEHICLE, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. MY FIANC, WHO IS NOT A MECHANIC, TOLD HIM MORE THAN ONCE, THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT THE BATTERY, BUT THE ALTERNATOR. HE GOT THE CAR TO CRANK. AS WE ARE RIDING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, THE CAR CUTS OFF, AND WE ARE LEFT AIMLESSLY ROLLING AND ARE UNABLE TO CONTROL THE WHEEL. PLUS, THE ELECTRICITY IN THE CAR IS OFF SO WE CAN'T EVEN TURN ON OUR HAZARD LIGHTS TO CAUTION THE OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD. AFTER SPEAKING TO THE SELLER, ONCE AGAIN, HE TELLS US THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO ABOUT IT AND WILL NOT CANCEL THE DEAL. WE'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 4-5 HOURS. AFTER SPEAKING TO SEVERAL MECHANICS, THEY QUICKLY CONFIRM THAT THE ALTERNATOR IS THE PROBLEM AND ANYBODY THAT CLAIMS TO BE A MECHANIC CAN SEE THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. THEY ALSO INFORM US THE CAR HAS BEEN WRECKED AND SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN RESOLD FOR SAFETY MEASURES. DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ALMOST COST US OUR LIVES.

MY 2007 MODEL YEAR CADILLAC CTS VEHICLE HAD A CONDITION WHERE REPEATED FLEXING OF THE PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM MAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HAS CAUSED THE MAT TO KINK, BEND, OR FOLD. THE FLEXING BROKE THE CONNECTIONS IN THE MAT. THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS BECOME DISABLED. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG STATUS INDICATOR ON THE REARVIEW MIRROR SHOWS THAT THE AIRBAG IS OFF, THE AIR BAG INDICTOR DOES ILLUMINATE, AND A SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE DOES APPEAR IN THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER AND HAS FOR YEARS! I HAVE REPEATEDLY ASK VILLAGE CADILLAC, SERVICE ADVISOR: DEBBIE HENRY TO HAVE THE SEAT FIXED. THE PROBLEM WITH SERVICE ADVISOR IS THAT SHE LOOKS AT YOUR RECALL RECORDS. YOUR RECORDS INDICATE THAT MY VIN DOES NOT HAVE ANY OUTSTANDING RECALLS, WHICH IS CORRECT. WHAT I HAVE IS A LETTER FROM CADILLAC P.O. BOX 909989 MILWAUKEE, WI 53209-9989, STATING THAT THIS MAT CAN BREAK AND IT HAS BROKEN. ALSO, THE PLASTIC HOUSING OF THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE IS BROKEN, WHICH HAS STARTED TO FRAY THE SEATBELT STRAP. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE.

WHEN GETTING INTO THE PASSENGER SEAT AND SOMEONE WEIGHED ENOUGH TO ACTIVATE THE AIR BAG TO BE ON THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD FLICKER. THEN AFTER A WHILE THE AIR BAG LIGHT JUST STAYED ON AND HASN'T TURNED OFF EVEN WHEN KNOWONES SITTING THEIR. THIS STARTED HAPPENING ONLY WHEN SOMEONE WOULD ENTER THE CAR WHILE STATIONARY WITH THE VEHICLE ON. IT'S BEEN ABOUT 2 MONTHS SINCE THIS HAS STARTED.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN OUR HOME GARAGE. IT WOULD NOT START, IT WOULD START WHEN JUMPED BUT DIED SHORTLY AFTER. WE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED, IT WAS BAD, WE REPLACED W A NEW BATTERY. CAR STARTED RIGHT UP, BUT WOULD NOT CUT POWER ONCE THE KEY WAS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. CAR DINGS AND DASH AND RADIO ARE ON AS IF KEYS ARE STILL IN THE IGNITION.

MINE IS THE TIMING CHAIN SLIPS CAUSED FROM WRONG VALVE COVER GASKET AND THE LIFE ON THE OIL

I WAS GIVING A RECALL PAPER IN THE MAIL , SO I TOOK MY CAR TO THE ADDRESS LISTED ON THE REFORM. THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T DO THE RECALL. THE REASON THEY DECIDED NOT TO DO IT WAS BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE CORRECT KEYS AND WAS TOLD ' YOU CAR DOESN'T NEED IT, IT DOESN'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM UNLESS YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL KEY'. I TRIED CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER TO CONFIRM THIS CLAM BUT THEY LEFT ME ON HOLD. I HAVE THE IMPRESSION THEY DIDN'T WANT TO DO THE SERVICE FOR FREE.I JUST WANT TO KNOW WEATHER MY CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH THAT WHEN HIT THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK. I WAS HIT TWICE ON DRIVER REAR AND PASSENGER REAR, SPUN OUT AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS CROSSING OVER A CITY ROAD FROM A STOP SIGN, WAS HIT AT 60 MPH. I WAS DOING 20 MPH GOING STRAIGHT ACROSS FROM THE STOP SIGN.

WHILE TURNING LEFT AT LOW SPEED THE BRAKES FAILED SO I CENTERED THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE CAR STOPPED.

I SEEN THERE IS A RECALL BUT ON WEBSITE IT'S NOT SHOWING UP

THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN RECALL REPAIR NEEDED TO BE PERFORMED FOR THE IGNITION AND KEY FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,223.

FRONT BRAKE LINES RUSTED CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.

IN AUGUST 2011, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER IN RESPONSE TO RECALL 10355 WITH APPROXIMATELY 31,600 MILES. PART 19124390 PASSENGER SIDE SEAT CUSHION/AIRBAG MODULE WAS REPLACED. IN FEBRUARY 2019, SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT BECAME ILLUMINATED AND TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS. MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 66,000. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT CUSHION/ AIR BAG MODULE, WHICH IS THE SAME ITEM REPLACED IN AUGUST 2011. EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN 7/8 YEARS SINCE REPAIR, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 35,000. OF THOSE 35,0000, A FRONT PASSENGER WAS PROBABLY IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FOR ONLY 15,000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS SECOND SENSOR PART IS DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED AT CADILLAC'S EXPENSE. DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING INVOICES AND ESTIMATES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

TAKATA RECALL. WE HEARD FROM GM RECALL CENTER THAT OUR LOCAL GM DEALER, RALLY AUTO, DID THIS RECALL NOV 15, 2013. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AGAIN NOT EVEN 5 YEARS LATER. WE ARE SENIORS AND DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR THAT FAR. WE TOOK IT IN TO RALLY AND THEY PUT IT ON A MACHINE AND CHARGED US $143 TO TELL US IT WOULD BE ALMOST $1000 TO FIX THE AIRBAG MODULE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IN RESEARCHING, IT SAYS THAT THE RECALLS NEVER EXPIRE IF THE MANUFACTURER AND PARTS AVAILABILITY ARE STILL THERE. WE ARE SENIORS ON LIMITED INCOME AND THIS IS EXHORBITANT FEES. THEY DID NOT CHECK UNDER THE SEAT TO SEE IF IT MIGHT BE A SIMPLE BREAKAGE OR BENDING OF WIRES I DON'T BELIEVE. CAN YOU HELP US GET THIS FIXED? IT SEEMS IT SHOULD NOT BE MESSED UP SO SOON. THANK YOU.

THE CAR IS RUNNING LIKE IT IS STUCK IN SOME KIND OF SAFETY MODE. IT DOES NOT WANT TO ACCELERATE UNLESS IT STARTS ACCELERATING IN THIRD GEAR. IT DOES NOT COME OUT OF 3RD GEAR AT ALL. THE ENGINE LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE LIT UP ON THE DASH. THERE IS A COUPLE OF RECALLS LISTED FOR THE SAME EXACT YEAR MAKE AND MODEL BUT IT SAYS THAT THIS VIN NUMBER IS NOT UNDER RECALL. I THINK THAT THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE INSPECTED TO SEE IF IT ACTUALLY DOES NEED TO BE LISTED UNDER THOSE RECALLS. IT IS NOT JUST THIS ONE SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER HAVING THESE ISSUES EITHER. I HAVE TALKED TO QUITE A FEW CADILLAC OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND THEIR VEHICLES ARE NOT LISTED UNDER THOSE RECALLS EITHER. IF YOU TURN ON THE CAR YOU PUT IT INTO DRIVE THE CAR REMAINS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR AND WILL NOT SHIFT THROUGH THE GEARS PROPERLY.

TAKATA RECALL. WE HAVE AN AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. TOOK IN TO DEALER. SAYS THE CODE B092 NEEDS PASS. PRESENCE. QUOTED US ALMOST $1000 FOR REPAIR. NOTE THAT THIS RECALL WAS TAKEN IN AND DONE NOV 2013. WHY IS IT MESSING UP AGAIN? HOW LONG IS THE REPAIR SUPPOSED TO LAST? SHOULDN'T IT BE FIXED AT NO COST TO US?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CADILLAC CTS. AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" MESSAGE DISPLAYED AND REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

MY CAR WAS RUNNING FINE. THEN MY ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE A LOUD TRUCK. NO WARNING CAME. THE CHECK ENGINE LITE NEVER WENT ON SO I STOP DRIVING IT TILL IT WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO HAVE IT TOWED AND WHEN I STARTED UP THE CAR THE ENGINE BLEW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR WITH A LIFETIME LIMITED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND IT COVERS THE ENGINE. THE WARRANTY IS GOOD FOR LIFE AS LONG AS I OWN THE CAR AND KEEP UP ON ALL MAINTANCE AT A GM DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID FOR 8 YRS. THE WARRANTY COMPANY WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT IT FROM CLOSED. I CALLED GM AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY STATED I NEED TO GO TO THE WARRANTY COMPANY. NOTHING STATES IN MY WARRANTY IF THE DEALERSHIP CLOSES THAT MY WARRANTY IS INVALUED. THAT IS NOT RIGHT I FEEL THAT GM SHOULD PAY THE COST OF THIS ENGINE BECAUSE I BELIEVE MY CHECK ENGINE LITE WAS FAULTY.

ABOUT AN HOUR AGO I WAS GETTING READY TO PARK INTO MY GARAGE AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK AND I ALMOST CRASHED INTO A PARKED CAR. AGAIN THE SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON. I'M 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AND THIS IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION. I'M NOT LOOKING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT DUE TO MY BRAKES FAILING. MY SERVICE AIR BAGS MESSAGE ALSO COMES UP AND EVEN WITH A PASSENGER IN THE CAR IT DOESN'T STATE THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS ON. I AM PRETTY SURE BOTH OF THESE ISSUES WERE PART OF A RECALL BUT I HADN'T OWNED THE CAR DURING THAT TIME. AS OF NOW THIS CAR IS A FATAL ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AND I'M UNSURE AS TO WHY THERE ISN'T STILL AN OPEN RECALL TO ADDRESS THIS BRAKE FAILURE ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING AND WENT TO STOP AT PARKING SPACE AND THE BRAKES FAILED AND I HIT THE WALL IN THE PARKING SPACE.

TAKATA INFLATORS. I HAVE A LOUD CRACKING NOISE IN SEVERAL PLACES BEHIND THE DASH. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS STILL BUT MOSTLY WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATES. THE LOUDEST CRACKING NOISE IS IN THE CENTER OF THE DASH. WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL I AM AFRAID THAT THIS COULD BE PART OF THAT. THE CAR ONLY HAS 11,000MILES ON IT BUT THE CRACKING HAS OCCURRED SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW.
