NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 06V020000 MFG'S REPORT DATE : January 20, 2006
COMPONENT: Fuel System, Gasoline: Delivery
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 17462
SUMMARY:
Certain vehicles equipped with V6 engines may have a condition where fuel is no longer supplied to the engine. This condition occurs without the
illumination of the fuel level low indicator light or the warning chime.
CONSEQUENCE:
If the engine stops running, the operator will not be able to restart the vehicle which could increase the risk of a crash.
REMEDY:
Dealers will reprogram the Electronic Control Module (ECM) with new software free of charge. Owners were notified in December 2005 and asked to
maintain at least 1/4 of a tank fuel level to avoid this condition until the parts are available. The recall is expected to begin during March 2006. Owners
may contact Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339.
