Cadillac has issued a recall for certain units of the 2022 Cadillac XT5 and XT6 over a possible loose suspension toe link.
The problem: a fastener in the left rear suspension toe link in affected units of the Cadillac XT5 and XT6 may not have been properly torqued at the factory during suspension assembly.
The hazards: if the fastener in the rear suspension toe link is not properly tightened to spec, the toe link may be loose or become separated. This may result in misalignment of the left rear wheel and can negatively affect the vehicle’s handling, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: a dealership technician will inspect the left side rear suspension of the Cadillac XT5 and XT6 to determine if the fastener was torqued to spec. If the fastener is found to be loose or missing, it will be replaced and properly torqued. This procedure will be performed at no cost to the vehicle owner.

Next steps: Cadillac will contact owners of affected vehicles by mail.
