What happened

Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling certain 2018 and 2019 model year vehicles including E-Class, G-Class, GLC-Class, CLS-Class, and GT63 AMG models. The front seat belts may be incorrectly detected as unfastened even when properly fastened, which could prevent the electric PRE-SAFE® function and seat belt pretensioners from deploying during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the front seat belt buckles as necessary at no charge. The recall began March 13, 2020. Affected owners should contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372 and reference recall number 2020020017 to have their vehicle inspected and repaired.
