CADILLAC CTS-V Recalls

The Cadillac CTS-V has 5 recalls spanning 2004 to 2015, with the most serious affecting 2014-2015 CTS-V Sport models equipped with the 3.6L twin-turbo V6, where roll pins in the rear axle differential can fracture while driving, locking the rear wheels and causing sudden loss of control. The 2004-2007 model years have two brake-related recalls tied to corrosion in high-salt regions. On vehicles originally sold or registered in salt-belt states and provinces, the front brake hose fittings can corrode and leak brake fluid, extending stopping distances. This corrosion issue was filed separately for Canadian provinces including Ontario and Quebec and for a broad range of US salt-belt states, but the underlying problem is the same on both sides of the border. The 2004 model year also has a fuel pump module recall where an electrical terminal can overheat, melt, and allow fuel to leak near potential ignition sources, raising the risk of an engine compartment fire. A leak from this terminal can also drop fuel pressure enough to cause reduced power or stalling.
