Plain-English summary

General Motors, LLC is recalling certain 2023-2025 Cadillac XT5 and 2024-2025 Cadillac XT6 vehicles under NHTSA campaign number 24V459000. The potential number of units affected is 6,942.

The instrument panel may not illuminate when the hazard warning lights, high beams or turn signals are activated. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 101, "Controls and Displays," and 108. According to NHTSA, without the illuminated reminder the driver could fail to turn off the lights when no longer needed, and lights that remain activated unintentionally can confuse other drivers.

Dealers will update the instrument panel software free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 13, 2024.

Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006.
