What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Cadillac SRX vehicles manufactured November 11, 2014, to December 3, 2014. The front driver's seat may have been built with an incorrect seat track bracket. Drivers' seats with this condition may not be properly attached to the seat track.

The risk

The front outboard seat bracket may become disengaged during a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of personal injury.

The remedy

GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace affected seat track hook brackets, free of charge. The recall began on February 5, 2015. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac). GM's number for this recall is 14863.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
