Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify whether the installed tires are affected and obtain tire recall remedy records.
- Obtain documentation that the power-window recall was completed.
- Confirm manual access and ask about collision-avoidance, electrical, and brake faults.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Cadillac dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
