General Motors is recalling 131 2016 model-year Cadillac CT6 sedans because of a problem with the front-passenger seat belt, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported.
The recall covers vehicles manufactured July 21-22 of this year. In these cars, the bolt that connects the front passenger seat belt webbing to the seat’s anchor plate may be missing, NHTSA said.

Without the bolt, the seat belt webbing may detach from the seat anchor. If this occurs, the seat belt “may not properly restrain the front seat passenger in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury,” NHTSA warned on its website.
To resolve the issue, Cadillac dealers will replace the existing front-passenger seat belt webbing anchor bolt — or install a bolt if it’s missing — free of charge. NHTSA recommends that occupants not sit in the front passenger seat until the recall remedy has been performed.
Vehicle owners can reach Cadillac customer service at (800) 458-8006. GM’s number for this recall is 16035.
Distracted driving remains one of the most persistent risks in fleet operations. New approaches focus on removing mobile device use entirely while adding real-time safety support.
As distraction risks evolve, fleets are turning to smarter, more connected technologies to better understand what’s happening behind the wheel. Part 2 explores how these tools are helping identify risky behaviors and improve visibility across operations.
Distracted driving is often measured by what we can see—phones in hand, eyes off the road. But what about the distractions we can’t? A recent incident raises a bigger question about awareness, attention, and why subtle risks so often go unnoticed.
Fleets have more driver data than ever, so why isn't behavior changing? Training requires more than reports and coaching — it requires real-world practice.
A two-part conversation with Stefan Heck on how AI is transforming the fight against distracted driving. As fleets adopt smarter tools, the focus shifts from reacting to preventing risk. In Part 1, we look at where AI is making an impact for fleets today.
An 11% drop in pedestrian fatalities in early 2025 signals progress in U.S. road safety, but elevated death rates and ongoing risks underscore the need for continued action from fleets and policymakers.
