CarRecallWatch- Component
- EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL:SWITCH
- Problem
- General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2019 Cadillac CT6 vehicles. Rotation of the steering wheel will not automatically cancel the turn-signals from flashing.

- Risk
- If the turn-signals do not automatically deactivate, the driver may fail to turn them off manually. An erroneous active turn-signal may mislead pedestrians and other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

- GM has notified owners, and dealers will replace the turn-signal switch. The recall began March 11, 2019. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. The Cadillac number for this recall is N182207090.
- 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.
What this recall means for you
On certain 2019 Cadillac CT6 vehicles, turning the steering wheel does not automatically cancel the turn signals. The turn signals can keep flashing after a turn is completed, and the driver may not notice and switch them off manually. This does not meet federal lighting safety requirements.
An active turn signal that stays on can mislead pedestrians and other drivers about your intentions, which increases the risk of a crash.
The repair is free. Dealers will replace the turn signal switch. Contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006, referencing recall number N182207090, and check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
