Takata Recall at Cadillac

For Cadillac we list KBA campaigns on Takata inflators, including for the BLS and Escalade. The KBA text does not always name the supplier; the Takata assignment is then documented per campaign with sources. The periods apply per campaign; only the VIN check with the manufacturer shows whether a vehicle is covered.
