- What it can cause
- An air bag that does not deploy as intended increases the risk of injury during a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the driver's front air bag module, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 12, 2024. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is N232439241.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 74 vehicles this is a small campaign: 73% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Cadillac vehicles have been recalled over the air bags 23 times before this, most recently in August 2021 as 21V611000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 10 complaints with NHTSA, 1 of them before this campaign was filed. 2 of those name the air bags, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 24V459000 (electrical system), 23V681000 (visibility).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by General Motors, LLC with NHTSA on May 2, 2024 as campaign 24V311000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
