13 recalls covering model years 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
General Motors is recalling certain Cadillac LYRIQ, CELESTIQ and VISTIQ vehicles and Chevrolet Blazer EVs because of a software defect in the unit that controls the brakes. Under certain driving conditions, this defect may cause a loss of braking ability. The recall repair is a free software update, which can be delivered wirelessly or performed by a dealer for affected vehicles.
General Motors is recalling a wide range of Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC and Buick vehicles, including the Escalade IQ and IQL, OPTIQ, Colorado, Equinox EV, Silverado 3500, Canyon and Sierra 3500. During production, the radio may not have been set to the correct status to download the electronic owner's manual, so the manual is not there for the owner to use. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet the federal safety standard covering occupant protection.
On some Cadillac Lyriq vehicles, the rearview camera screen may turn gray and stop showing any picture from the camera. Without that camera image, the driver loses the extra view behind the vehicle that the system is supposed to provide.
Some Cadillac Lyriq and Vistiq vehicles may have loose or missing bolts holding the high-voltage battery to the floor of the vehicle.
The driver's video display may suddenly go blank while you're driving. That screen shows things like the speedometer, warning lights, and the rearview camera image, so losing it means losing that information while on the road. Dealers will update the display's software, or it can be updated automatically over the air, free of charge.
General Motors is recalling certain Cadillac Lyriq vehicles. The bolts on the bracket that holds the left or right front stabilizer bar may not have been tightened properly. Over time, these bolts can loosen and allow the bracket to separate from the vehicle's frame. If that happens, the loose stabilizer bar or bracket can damage nearby high-voltage cables or the coolant lines for the EV battery.
General Motors is recalling certain 2025 Cadillac LYRIQ vehicles because the owner's manual inaccurately describes the rear outboard head restraints. If an owner relies on this incorrect description, the head restraints may end up improperly adjusted, which increases the risk of injury in a crash.
Some Cadillac Lyriq all-wheel-drive vehicles have an anti-lock brake system that can turn on by itself and let out brake pressure in the vehicle's brake system.
In some 2024 Cadillac Lyriq, Chevrolet Blazer EV, Chevrolet Silverado EV, GMC Hummer EV, and GMC Sierra EV vehicles, the electric motors in the rear drive unit may have wires that aren't insulated well enough. If those wires touch each other, the vehicle can lose the power that drives it.
In some Cadillac LYRIQ vehicles, the bracket that holds the left-rear and center-rear seat belts to the seat frame may not have been welded correctly. Because of this, that bracket may not hold the seat belts as firmly as it should. A seat belt that isn't anchored securely may not keep a passenger properly restrained. This affects anyone riding in the left-rear or center-rear seating position.
The body control module on some vehicles may have been updated with incorrectly calibrated software, causing it to fail to make the sounds meant to warn pedestrians that the vehicle is approaching.
Certain Cadillac Lyriq vehicles may have connections inside the high-voltage battery pack that are out of position or were not welded correctly. This problem can cause the vehicle to suddenly lose drive power while you are driving, meaning the car may stop being able to move forward or accelerate as expected. Losing power unexpectedly on the road can make it difficult to keep the vehicle moving safely, especially in traffic or at higher speeds.
General Motors says a software error in the driver video display control module on some Cadillac Lyriq vehicles may cause the instrument panel to go blank. When this happens, the panel would not show information like your speed and warning lights. GM is recalling the affected vehicles to fix this software error in the display control module.
Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.
| Model year | Recalls | High / critical | Do-not-drive / park-outside | Complaints | Crashes | Fires | Injuries |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 8 | 6 | 0 | 24 | 2 | 0 | 1 |

NHTSA lists 13 safety recalls covering the 2023–2026 Cadillac Lyriq. 9 of them are rated high or critical on this site. The most recent is "Cadillac LYRIQ, VISTIQ, CELESTIQ, Chevrolet Blazer EV May Lose Braking" (NHTSA campaign 26V717000), reported Oct 29, 2026.
The 2023 Cadillac Lyriq has the most, with 8 recalls. The 2026 model year has the fewest of the years we cover, with 2. Newer model years have had less time to collect recalls, so a low count on a recent year is not a guarantee.
No. None of the 13 Cadillac Lyriq recalls on file carries a do-not-drive or park-outside advisory from NHTSA.
