Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

General Motors is recalling approximately 94 of its 2026 Cadillac Vistiq electric vehicles because the electronic owner's manual may not have downloaded to the vehicle's radio system during production. This missing manual contains critical safety information, including instructions for the vehicle's child restraint anchorage systems, as required by federal safety standards. Dealers will reset the vehicle's radio to allow the manual to download automatically, free of charge.

Risk

Without access to an owner's manual, drivers may not know how to safely operate vehicle features or correctly secure child safety seats. This lack of information increases the risk of injury to occupants in the event of a crash.

  2. Identify if your vehicle is affected by visiting NHTSA.gov/recalls and entering your 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
  3. Contact an authorized Cadillac dealer to schedule a service appointment to have your vehicle's radio reset, which will trigger the automatic download of the electronic owner's manual.
