NHTSA recall 26V-612 (26V612000)

What is being recalled

General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2025-2027 Cadillac OPTIQ vehicles. When closed using the key fob's express-up function, the front windows may fail to detect an obstruction and reverse direction. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 118, "Power-Operated Window Systems."

Why it is dangerous

A closing window that does not reverse direction as expected can pinch a passenger before retracting, increasing the risk of injury.
