2010 CADILLAC DTS Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2010 Cadillac DTS has two recalls, the more serious being an electrical cable that rubs against the power steering return line, which can wear through the line and cause a fluid leak that leads to sudden loss of power steering or an engine compartment fire. The second recall is a compliance issue: the tire and loading information label was not installed on the vehicle. Without this label, owners may not have the correct tire inflation and load capacity figures on hand, which can lead to overloaded or underinflated tires and reduced handling.
