GM's number for this recall is 18279.
Your 2019 Cadillac XTS may have a problem with the front seat belt buckles. A small metal rivet is missing, which could cause the buckle to come loose in a crash.

Free Fix
You'll receive a notification and can take your vehicle to a dealership, where they'll inspect and replace the front seat buckle assemblies for free.
