Cadillac recall: Child seat
What is wrong
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Cadillac CT6 vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."
What could happen
If the child seat cannot be attached correctly to the anchorage bar, there is an increased the risk of injury.
