This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
In August of 2009 I noticed when I had a front seat passenger I would get an instrument panel indicator warning light of "airbag readiness". also, the passenger airbag status indicator in the overhead console was register as being "off". this failure was never intermittently -- it just failed. I went through the procedures of the owner's manual for possible corrections: 1. have front passenger adjust weight while seated, move or position seat in a upright position, then turn vehicle "on and off". 2. check for items under the seat for items and adjust seat belts. The last week of November I took the vehicle into the dealership for recall of NHTSA id#10V2400000. At that time I addressed the problem of the failure of the airbag system to the Cadillac representative. He stated " he had checked the system for a recall of this nature and there was none". this could be true because, I just lucked upon seeing an article on the internet concerning the recall of GM vehicles. However, the recall of NHTSA id# 10V644000 is for Cadillac/cts 2005-2007. My vehicle is a Cadillac/ext 2007 however, this model vehicle is experiencing the exact safety hazard as the Cadillac/cts 2007 model. I do not feel this is a random coincidence rather, something that should be seriously brought to the attention of car manufacturer.
