Cadillac CTS, SRX Sales Halted for Ignition Switch Issue
General Motors has issued a stop-sale order on certain models of the 2003-2013 Cadillac CTS and 2004-2006 SRX.
According to an NHTSA filing, the American automaker doesn’t have a fix yet for the vehicles recalled in late June over the ignition switch issue. In the notice, GM is requesting its Cadillac dealerships to not sell 2003-2013 models of the CTS and 2004-2006 models of the SRX from their used-car inventories.

GM spokesman Alan Adler noted that the order “is still in effect for the foreseeable future,” and that the automaker’s engineers are “looking at one common solution” for the issue. Cadillac switched to a push-button starter switch on the 2014 CTS, so only older models of the sedan are affected.
