The Americans from General Motors are forced by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall several models due to some problems that might affect the passangers in a way or another. The first model to suffer from this recall is the sedan Cadillac CTS, manufactured betwen 2005 and 2007. The problem is that due to high usage the passanger detection system may fail and thus the safety systems such as the airbag won’t work when this is needed.
