## What is wrong

General Motors LLC \(GM\) is recalling certain model year 2015 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV vehicles.  The passenger side instrument panel top cover on the affected vehicles may have been manufactured using an incorrect spacer fabric, causing a reduction of adhesion between the spacer fabric and the vinyl show surface.  This reduced adhesion may result in inconsistent passenger air bag deployment.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."


## What can happen

Inconsistent air bag deployment increases the risk of personal injury in the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment.


## The remedy

GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the instrument panel top cover, free of charge.  The recall began on November 11, 2014.  Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1\-800\-458\-8006.  GM's number for this recall is 14686.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
