(6Nm instead of 12Nm). The nut may loosen over time due to insufficient clampload. This could cause intermittent start issues, a no start condition, or prolonged crank times. Arcing or sparking may also occur. Dealers will tighten the starter nut to 12 Nm and replace any parts that show arcing.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10183229-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10183229-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10183229","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"engine","name":"Engine","parent":null},{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"CADILLAC","model":"CT5","year_from":2020,"year_to":2020,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2020_cadillac_ct5"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
