AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE
An inflator rupture may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
3 safety recall campaigns, 65 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
An inflator rupture may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
In cold ambient temperatures, the seat heaters in these vehicles can turn on automatically when the vehicle is remotely started. If a damaged seat heater is turned on while no one is inside the vehicle, the damaged seat heater can overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.
If the bracket fractures, the driver would not be able to apply the brakes, increasing the risk of a crash.
Two 2015 CADILLAC CTSs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
