2016 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE350; 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ GLS450
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling certain 2016 GLE350 4Matic and GLS450 4Matic vehicles because the windshield bonding may be insufficient, which could cause the windshield to separate from the vehicle during a crash. If the windshield detaches, the passenger frontal air bag may not deploy properly and may not support the occupant as intended, increasing the risk of injury. These vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for occupant crash protection and windshield mounting.
To address this issue, MBUSA will notify owners and dealers will replace the windshield at no charge. The recall process began in March 2017. Owners of affected vehicles should contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372 to arrange the windshield replacement.
