I HAVE A CADILLAC CTS 2006 AND MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON FOR NO REASON. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CADILLAC DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE FRONT SENSOR CONTROL MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I CALLED GM MOTORS, BECAUSE I FOUND OUT THE SAME SENSOR IS RECALLED FOR CADILLAC CTS MODELS 2005-2006 AND THE CAMPAIGN ID # IS 10V644000, HOWEVER GM TOLD ME THAT MY CAR IS TOO OLD TO HONOR THE RECALL AND THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE IT. HERE IS THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER :10V644000 THAT STATS: "NON-DEPLOYMENT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH NECESSITATING THAT AIR BAG'S DEPLOYMENT MAY REDUCE PROTECTION OF THE PASSENGER AND INCREASE THE RISK OR SEVERITY OF INJURY TO THEM... DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM FREE OF CHARGE..GM SAFETY RECALL NO. 100355" I AM NOT SURE WHY MY CAR...

MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE WAS GONE IN IT AND THEY REFUSED TO REPAIR IT CAUSE MY WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED AND THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND ITS A RECALL ON THE 2009 MODEL CADILLAC CTS FOR THE AIRBAG BUT NOT THE 2006. IF IM IN A CAR ACCIDENT, IT WILL NOT DEFLATE. *TR
