Cadillac Equipment Recalls Involve Blank Displays, Labels and Owner Manuals
Missing or unusable safety information connects these Cadillac equipment recalls. Certain 2023–2024 Lyriq vehicles may lose the driver video display while driving, removing information such as speed, warning lights, and the rearview camera image. Certain 2023 XT5 and XT6 vehicles have certification labels with potentially illegible tire sizes. Certain 2024 XT4 vehicles may contain the wrong printed owner's manual. The February 2026 electronic-manual notice reaches the broadest Cadillac model selection, including Optiq, CT5, Escalade variants, Lyriq, and Vistiq. The repeated manual issue concerns access to correct operating information, while the Lyriq display defect affects information presented during driving.
Warning signs to watch for
- May 2025 Lyriq display recall: the driver video display may go blank while driving.
- September 2022 XT5/XT6 label recall: tire size information on the driver's-side B-pillar certification label may be illegible.
- August 2024 XT4 manual recall: the glove box may contain the wrong owner's manual.
- February 2026 electronic-manual recall: the electronic owner's manual may be missing.
Can you keep driving? What the notices say
None of these four equipment notices carries a stop-driving or park-outside instruction. The May 2025 Lyriq display notice, September 2022 certification-label notice, August 2024 wrong-manual notice, and February 2026 electronic-manual notice do not tell owners to stop driving. They describe crash or injury risks associated with losing displayed safety information, installing incorrect tires because label information is illegible, or lacking correct vehicle operating information. The notices do not give a separate continuing-driving instruction for any of these conditions.
What the free repair involves
The Lyriq display remedy is a software update by a dealer or over the air. Dealers replace the affected XT5/XT6 certification label and provide the correct manual for the XT4 recall. For the electronic-manual recall, dealers reset the radio to facilitate automatic manual download. Each notice states its remedy is free of charge.

Common questions
What information can disappear in the Lyriq display recall?
The May 2025 notice says the driver video display may go blank while driving in certain 2023–2024 Lyriq vehicles. A blank display can remove critical safety information, including the speedometer, warning lights, and rearview camera image.
What is wrong with the XT5 and XT6 tire label?
The September 2022 notice concerns certain 2023 XT5 and XT6 vehicles whose driver's-side B-pillar certification label may have illegible tire size information. The notice identifies the risk of incorrect tires being installed and specifies free label replacement.
How do the printed-manual and electronic-manual remedies differ?
For the August 2024 XT4 recall, dealers provide the correct owner's manual free of charge. For the February 2026 electronic-manual recall, dealers reset the vehicle radio to facilitate automatic download of the electronic manual, also free of charge.
