SEATS

returned home in driveway shut off car and the driver seat automaticaly moves as far back as the track will allow well my grand daughter was in her car seat in the rear behind me, the driver and the seat crushed her foot and bent her foot back wards . her foot was trapped and wedged between the seats the driver seat comes within a few inches of the back seat. so, anyone sitting there would have their knees crushed. this is a very unsafe situation and it could have been much worse if an adult was sittingthere

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

purchased a new 2014 cadillac cts, window sticker showed clearly and as a selling feature that the car received a government 5 star safety rating for frontal crash, driver and passenger and for roll over. five months later, may 16, 2014 i received a letter from cadillac stating that there was an error and the car did not receive a 5 star government rating and they sent me a new window sticker.. i feel this is false advertising promoting the safety of the car based on us government safety rating. thank you

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

original window label has government 5 star rating for frontal crash and rollover. this was important to me as this will probably be my last car. letter dated may 16, 2014 from gm changed the 5 star rating to no rating at all. i'm sure gm used the original window label in determining cost of car and dealers used it as a selling point. the cost was substantial to me and i may not have bought it at all if i had known correct safety rating. i feel i was deceived, lied to, and mislead.
