GM To Recall 9,648 MY 2007 Cadillac CTS Cars

GM is recalling 9,648 MY 2007 Cadillac CTS model vehicles for not complying with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 118, 'Power Operated Window, Partition, and Roof Panel Systems.' This safety standard specifies requirements for power operated window, partition, and roof panel systems to minimize the likelihood of death or injury from their accidental operation.

Under the standard, the sunroof may only be closed when the ignition is on, or after the ignition is turned off, but before either of the front doors are opened. The affected 2007 CTS models may exhibit a condition where the sunroof can be closed after the ignition is turned off and the doors are opened. Dealers will install a wire harness. According to NHTSA, GM has not yet provided a recall notification schedule for the recall.
