2023 Cadillac XT5 And XT6 Recalled For Noncompliant Tire Certification Label

General Motors has issued a recall for certain examples of the 2023-model-year Cadillac XT5 and Cadillac XT6 crossovers due to an issue related to noncompliant tire certification labels.

The problem: affected vehicles may not have a legible tire certification label. Located on the driver’s side B-pillar, this label should contain the correct tire-size information for the vehicle, which is critical for compliance with S4.3.3 of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, “Tire selection and rims and motor home / recreation vehicle trailer load carrying capacity information for motor vehicles with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or less.”

The hazards: Using the incorrect tire size on a vehicle may increase the risk of a crash. The label should clearly display the correct tire size for the vehicle.

The fix: dealer technicians are instructed to replace the vehicle tire certification label with a label that includes the correct tire sizing in clearly legible print. Technicians are instructed not to place the new label over the existing label.

Affected components: tire certification label located around the driver’s side B-pillar.

Affected vehicles:

  • 2023 Cadillac XT5
  • 2023 Cadillac XT6

Number of affected vehicles: it’s unclear at this time how many units of the 2023 Cadillac XT5 and Cadillac XT6 are affected by this recall.

  1. Really? Those labels are read about as often as the owners manual. Meaning, pretty much never.

  2. I followed a new CT-4 on the highway yesterday and that’s a good looking new car! It caught my eye because it’s NOT a crossover!
