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 completion of both VIN-applicable half-shaft recalls.
- Check tire-size label readability and reminder-light recall records.
- Ask about transmission behavior, engine issues, and reversing-camera 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.
