What's wrong, in plain English

On some Cadillac CT6 vehicles, turning the steering wheel will not automatically cancel the turn signal after a turn. The driver may not notice that the signal is still flashing and may not turn it off manually.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Cadillac dealer to have the turn-signal switch replaced; call 1-800-458-8006.
3. The repair is free.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 19V117000.
