NHTSA's recall notice
As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 14V541000.
Defect description
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Cadillac XTS vehicles manufactured February 14, 2012, to August 22, 2014, and 2014-2015 Chevrolet Impala vehicles manufactured November 5, 2012, to September 2, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the electronic parking brake piston actuation arm may not fully retract causing the brake pads to stay partially engaged.
Safety consequence
Brake pads that remain partially engaged with the rotors may cause excessive brake heat that may result in a fire.
