What's wrong, in plain English

On vehicles fitted with certain dealer-installed 20-inch wheels, the tire pressure monitoring sensors use the wrong wireless frequency. Because of this, the system cannot turn on the low tire pressure warning light when tire pressure drops below the recommended level.

What you should do

1. Check if your VIN is affected at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
2. Contact a Cadillac dealer at 1-586-596-1733.
3. The repair — replacing all four tire pressure sensors — is free.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

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 19V731000.

Summary
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020 Cadillac CT6 vehicles equipped with dealer-installed accessory 20" x 8.50" wheels (RPO 5JO or SHH). The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensors use the incorrect wireless radio frequency and cannot illuminate the low pressure warning light when the tire pressure drops below the recommended level. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Safety risk
Drivers may drive the vehicle with low tire pressure without a low tire pressure warning, negatively impacting the vehicle handling and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace all four TPMS sensors with the correct sensors, free of charge. The recall began December 3, 2019. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-586-596-1733. GM's number for this recall is N192279200.
