Air Bag Problems of Cadillac ATS

I was in a vehicle accident on 9-26-25 and was t-boned. The other driver hit me at 35-45 after she blew the stopping, I was hit on the driver side pillar and back driver door. My air bags never deployed and I was trapped inside the car until the fire department was on scene.

In center console there is a dual usb port for either charging or data for carplay. When two phones are plugged in and charging, and one phone is in passengers hand, while vehicle is in motion or stopped, the airbag warning light will illuminate. When the phone is removed from passenger seat, airbag warning light turns off. This will happen any number of times and is very easy to reproduce issue. This problem is only occurring more often now that I have a passenger in the car. But it will happen if any phone is plugged in and sitting on the seat. It went to the dealer with this issue a couple years ago but they couldn’t get it to happen again because the phone wasn’t on the seat plugged in. If the airbag warning light is on, then the system will not function, therefore, if this happened right before an accident, the airbags may not deploy, putting all passengers at risk.

My airbag system light has been on now for over two years. My exact vehicle the prior year and after has had a recalled and mine has been missed. GMC wants 2000. 00 to replace my airbag situation and my car only has 66000 miles on it for god sakes. Please have my model VIN on recall list so my passengers will be safe. This is the second time I have emailed you and no response was given yet. Please recall my airbags.

My airbag is defective and other VIN numbers on my make and model and year were recalled and mine hasn’t and doesn’t work. Light still remains on. I have low mileage on my car too. Please do a recall on my airbag for my VIN. I also have replaced my cue system twice already . My model VIN hasn’t been recalled for that either. I should be reimbursed for having to keep on replacing it.

My air bag light randomly appeared and has been on for at about year now the dealership wants me to pay a ridiculous amount of money for all of these safety hazards including to fix my “airbag sensor” when I have never used the airbags. I am the one and only owner of the car which I purchased directly from the ed morse bayview Cadillac dealership. Faulty airbags and or sensors are a huge safety hazard. I need to know my airbags are working correctly as well as the sensors not only for my safety but as well as my child. My car has recently been diagnosed with serious transmission problems which include a vibration at 50 mph shuddering erratically and frequently to the point it is scary to drive. The transmission going out could cause me to get into an accident or be stuck in the road and put into danger which is another safety hazard. Lastly, the electric cue screen is supposed to be used for safety for many reasons which include hands-free directions when you are lost and can use gps without having to use your phone while driving. You need the cue screen to be able to access the radio for alerts and warnings. You need the cue screen to able to use your phone hands-free to prevent accidents. The cue screen is defective. The screens they use cannot withstand the heat and they sell you the car knowing the screens don’t last and will crack and no longer have the touch screen ability to control or use any of the features for our safety.

The car just blew out the airbags and the steering locked up.

Vehicle was involved in a accident all front damage and airbags didn’t deploy.

Airbag module fail on passenger seat.

When driving, I accidentaley hit a curb on the front left rim and the side air bags deployed. There was no damage to vehicle other than hitting the rim. I want to know if there is a recall on this or if there has been any other incidents of this kind. The only deployed air bags were the side ones by the windows the front air bags did not deploy. I need answers to why the car deplyed air bags when it was a curb check and no physical damage to the car? is there any recalls on this?.

Takata recall was issued for my airbags. Nothing happened. My airbags were deemed to be dangerous/recalled/ same with my steering wheel (2). . Same for rear brakes. Your questions are not relevant. Nothing happened. Rather recall was announced on airbags, steering wheel (2) and on my rear brakes.

Takata recall. There was never a notice sent out about the recall. Rear wheel broke at the spokes which cause for the car to go into a spin out. Driver curtain airbag deployed but not inflated like the passenger side. Seat belt did not hold me in securely, it was loose.

My daughter drove my car and hit a metal mail box (6x6 pole, holding 3 mail boxes) at 35 to 40 mph, she hit almost dead center. The seat belt didn't stop her from hitting her head on the steering wheel and the air bag didn't deploy. My daughter suffered a concussion, neck and back pain, one of her eyes vision is affected. She was driving in our street 3 houses down from our house, street is winding and not lighted.

I called the dealership (katherine cole who sold us the run flat tires), tweeted gm. No one at this point has been the least bit interested in what I had I to say. After my crash, on August 11, 2014, I have found several other Ats owners that experience the same exact issue. . My daughter and I suffered terrible injuries, crash and totaled my car. I also am finding that there maybe a tire issue because of fast wear after only 7,000 miles. What, is gm or the tire manufacture or these safety org. Waiting for someone to die? I sent in a complaint in about my 2014 Cadillac Ats causing me to have a near fatal car accident. Gm is claiming that the tires were worn and speed caused the accident, which is false. My car only had 7500 miles ( car was purchased with only 256 miles) and the tires were not worn! the car was just in for service for it’s premium care lease maintenance, the service advisor would have mentioned that at time! the speed was caused from the accident. My daughters abdomen was injured from the seat belt too! between gm and michelin tires I am getting no where, they are pointing the finger to each other when I voted for you I thought you would fight for michiganders! how would you feel if I were your family member. I have been four surgeries and at least two more, please rethink your decision please help me.
