Buying a used 2020 Cadillac XT4? Check these 5 recalls first

5 NHTSA recalls · 17 owner complaints on file

The 2020 XT4 has a longer list than the 2019: the same critical transmission fluid leak recall, plus high-severity recalls for GM brake assist that can fail and for potentially defective Continental tires, and medium ones for loose rear seat belt fasteners and a backup camera that may go blank. No stop-driving or park-outside warnings. Of 17 unverified owner complaints, service brakes is the largest category, followed by engine and forward collision avoidance; one fire was reported, no crashes.

Before you buy

  1. 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.
  2. Verify by VIN that the transmission leak and brake assist recalls were completed
  3. Check whether the tires are the recalled Continental units or replacements
  4. Test brake pedal feel and confirm the backup camera and seat belt anchors are sound
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Cadillac dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
