Cadillac XT4 recalls
Risk: A passenger-side air bag that does not deploy properly increases the risk of injury in a crash.
Risk: The wrong owner's manual may contain inaccurate information about vehicle functions and other safety relevant information, which could lead to improper operation of the vehicle and increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Risk: Failure of the rearview camera image to display can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: An improperly welded seat frame may not adequately restrain the driver in a crash, increasing their risk of injury.
Risk: An improperly secured seat belt retractor may not function properly in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Risk: Over cured tires may develop a break in the sidewall resulting in sudden air loss or a belt edge separation which could lead to a tread/belt loss. Either condition can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Missing bolts on the start-stop accumulator endcap could result in a transmission oil leak and may progress to a loss of propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash. A transmission fluid leak in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of fire.
Risk: If communication with the sensor is interrupted, the electronic brake boost assist could be lost. Extra pedal force will be required to slow and stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
