This complaint concerns the manufacturer's conduct of this recall, not the existence of the defect. A safety recall was issued for 2026 Cadillac VISTIQ vehicles for a third-row power seatback that may fail to reverse when it encounters an occupant. The manufacturer's original filing with this agency stated the remedy as replacement of the folding third-row seat module, and stated that disabling the feature was an option only for dealership inventory vehicles and for owners who chose it. That filing also stated that once replacement parts became available, the feature would be reinstated through a separate customer satisfaction campaign. The manufacturer then amended the filing twice: first deleting the owner-election language so that the feature "will be disabled," then changing the remedy type from "Replace" to "Software" and deleting the planned owner notification date entirely. What was actually performed on this vehicle was neither a module replacement nor a software reprogram. The third-row power-folding function was simply disabled during a routine maintenance visit, without the owner's knowledge or consent, and with no owner notification letter ever received. The recall nonetheless now shows as completed. Component: the third-row power-folding seat module and its electrical control. Inspectable on request. Safety relevance: the feature is permanently non-functional and the recall is closed as remedied, although the remedy described in the operative filing has not been performed. No owner notification, no parts, and no completion date have been provided; the manufacturer states it has no estimated timeframe. Confirmed by: an authorized dealer performed the disablement; the manufacturer acknowledged it in writing. Warning lamps: none. The only sign was a recall indicator in the vehicle's mobile app; the feature was found not to work.

Vehicle displayed a 'Lithium Ion Battery – Schedule Service Now' warning within approximately one month of delivery. Dealership service records later obtained by our attorney show the identical diagnostic condition was already present and was cleared via a system reset on the date of delivery, October 23, 2025, without disclosure to us. The defect was 'repaired' in December 2025 (diagnostic code P13FB, coolant control valve replacement) but recurred in May 2026, with the warning consistently reappearing whenever ambient temperature rose above approximately 80°F, accompanied by complete loss of air conditioning. The vehicle has been out of service since June 4, 2026. We consider this a potential safety issue given the recurring high-voltage battery fault and are concerned other VISTIQ owners may be experiencing the same condition without knowing it was present before delivery. Since retaining legal counsel, a temporary repair was made, but the vehicle is now also subject to a manufacturer recall that renders the third row unusable, with no permanent remedy currently available. We are concerned this reflects an unresolved and possibly unfixable condition affecting vehicle safety and usability.

My 2026 Cadillac Vistiq is covered by NHTSA Recall 26V394 (GM N262555780), concerning a third-row power-folding seatback that may fail to auto-reverse when it strikes an obstruction, risking entrapment of smaller occupants, particularly children. Component: the third-row power-fold seatback module and its power harness. Available for inspection on request. On [DATE], an authorized Cadillac dealer performed the interim recall remedy by disconnecting the power harness under the cargo floor trim. The Vistiq third row is power-actuated only, with no manual fold mechanism, so disconnecting the harness locks the seats in whatever position they occupy at that moment. I was not asked which position I wanted. The seats were left [FOLDED FLAT / describe] and cannot be raised. The third row is now completely unusable as seating. The dealer performed and confirmed this work; a repair order exists. I later asked the dealer to reconnect the harness, cycle the seats upright, then re-disable the power-fold so the seats would remain usable as seating pending the permanent module. The dealer refused. I also requested courtesy transportation adequate to my family's seating needs. The dealer refused. No availability date for the replacement module has been provided. Safety impact: this is a three-row SUV that now seats five. Occupants who would otherwise use the third row must sit elsewhere or travel separately. No warning lamps or messages preceded this; the loss of function is the result of the recall remedy itself, not a component failure. I am reporting this because the interim remedy eliminated a functional seating position, the dealer refuses to restore it in any usable configuration, and no timeline exists for the permanent repair. If the remedy is being administered this way generally, other owners in the recall population are losing third-row occupant capacity with no recourse.
