Recall 24V459000 — ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL

| 6,942 vehicles affected

Defect: General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2023-2025 Cadillac XT5 and 2024-2025 Cadillac XT6 vehicles. 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, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and...

Consequence: Without the illuminated reminder, the driver could fail to turn off the lights when no longer needed. Hazard warning lights, high beams, or turn signals that remain activated unintentionally can confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will update the instrument panel software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 13, 2024. Owners may contact Cadillac's customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is N242447940.

Most Recent Complaints

#11717286 | ENGINE | | N/A miles
6700 miles on 2025 XT6 had an oil change a month ago. Noted red fluid leaking on driveway on 02-10-26. Immediately notified dealer. Brought car to Camargo Cadillac 9876 Montgomery Rd Cinti OH 513-402-2905. Brought car in 9:15 am 02-11-26 was informed at 10:00 am that the car is experiencing faulty transmission bolts and it will require lengthy repair including "dropping transmission to reach bolts." I have seen numerous complaints online with the same issue yet there is no recall at this time.
#11702861 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | | N/A miles
The rear camera blanks out when backing out of driveway into the sun. It prevents me from seeing cross traffic and pedestrians. The dealer looked at the system and said it something I had to live with. This seems to be an intermittent problem, as sometimes it suddenly starts to work, or when I back into the street over the curb gutter. If I back the vehicle into the garage and drive out into the sun, the front camera is not affected by the sun. I feel this is a safety hazard to pedestrians and other vehicles. The dealer seems very indifferent to the problem
I was backing up into a parking space in a parking garage. I was about halfway into the spot and was not in danger of hitting any vehicles or objects and my vehicle abruptly (extremely hard) braked.
#11677458 | SERVICE BRAKES | | N/A miles
I was backing up into a parking space in a parking garage. I was about halfway into the spot and was not in danger of hitting any vehicles or objects and my vehicle abruptly (extremely hard) braked.
#11673491 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | | N/A miles
During a cross- country trip, we had driven more than 300 miles, but the fuel gage indicated full, the Fuel Range Indicator showed a 688-mile range available in the tank which is much more than a 2025 Cadillac XT6 should indicate. The fuel gage indicated full even though it was not. I pulled the car over, shut it off and restarted, but it still erroneously indicated full. The indication remained that way for approximately 1400 miles. During the trip, while the gage still indicated full even though it was not, the tank was hard to fill. The gas station pump would automatically click off as if the tank was full, but it was not. I could only fill the tank by continuously over-riding the automatic shut off. This problem could not be duplicated by the dealership maintenance department on 4/29/2025. I picked the car up on 5/10/2025. I have a copy of the 4/29/2025 Service Report of the dealership.
