Safety Recall Alert: Cadillac STS, STS-V

Posted: Mar. 28, 2008 10:03 a.m.

Kicking Tires reports, “Cadillac is recalling 4,586 Cadillac STSs and STS-Vs from the 2008 model year due to ‘premature tire failure.’”

Edmunds Inside Line explains that the recall is due to “a problem with the tire-pressure monitoring system.”  The system may fail to detect tire pressure problems.  According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, this may cause “premature tire failure [that] could result in a loss of control of the vehicle.”

Cadillac owners should contact their dealer as soon as possible, or contact Cadillac at (800) 982-2339.
