Some Cadillac CT4, CT5, Escalade Vehicles With Super Cruise Will Need A Mapping Control Module Update

Some Cadillac vehicles outfitted with Super Cruise, the luxury marque’s semi autonomous driver assist technology, will need to have their mapping control module reprogrammed to ensure proper functionality of the feature. 

Cadillac released a Customer Satisfaction Program (CSP) for affected vehicles. The CSP, identifiable by No. N242441560 applies to the 2023 and 2024 model year Cadillac CT4, Cadillac CT5, Cadillac Escalade, and Cadillac Escalade ESV. Certain examples of the aforementioned models that are equipped with Super Cruise require high-definition road maps to be updated frequently, which ensures that the vehicle’s system is up to date on current road changes and any additional Super Cruise approved mapped roads. 

A dealer will reprogram the automated mapping control module to make sure that the vehicle is up to date. This process will be performed at no cost to vehicle owners, and is expected to take a half an hour to complete. The program will remain in effect through October 31^st, 2026.

It’s likely that this CSP will update eligible vehicles in preparation for the inbound Super Cruise expansion. This update encompasses 400,000 miles of North American roads, effectively doubling its driving network for vehicles like the 2023 Cadillac Escalade. This expansion applies to units of the luxury SUV that rolled off the assembly line after October 3^rd, 2022, and will be rolled out via an over-the-air (OTA) update at no cost to owners.

Note that the Cadillac CT6 and Cadillac XT6 are excluded from this CSP, though they were/are able to be equipped with Super Cruise. The CT6 and XT6 are not eligible for the full scope of the massive 400,000-mile update because their electrical architecture won’t support it. As a reminder, the CT6 and XT6 are not built with the new Global B electrical architecture, rendering them unable to receive the full Super Cruise updates. Instead, these models are slated to receive smaller updates.
