GM Recalls 2020 Cadillac CT6 Vehicles for Tire Pressure Sensor Defect

General Motors is recalling 2020 Cadillac CT6 vehicles with specific dealer-installed wheels because the tire pressure sensors use the wrong frequency, preventing low-pressure warnings.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a safety-critical system (TPMS) failure that increases crash risk due to poor handling, but no injuries or deaths are reported in the source text, fitting the 'High' criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

General Motors LLC is recalling certain 2020 Cadillac CT6 vehicles equipped with dealer-installed accessory 20" x 8.50" wheels (RPO 5JO or SHH). The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensors in these vehicles use an incorrect wireless radio frequency. As a result, the sensors cannot illuminate the low-pressure warning light when tire pressure drops below the recommended level, causing the vehicles to fail compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 138.

Drivers may operate the vehicle with low tire pressure without receiving a warning. This condition negatively impacts vehicle handling and increases the risk of a crash. No specific number of affected units is provided in the source text, but the recall applies to the 2020 model year vehicles with the specified accessory wheels.

GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace all four TPMS sensors with the correct sensors free of charge. The recall began on December 3, 2019. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-586-596-1733 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
