Both front airbags and seat belts may not function properly in a crash.
In December 2020, Mercedes launched investigations based on a report from a supplier regarding possible production problems. The supplier told Mercedes there was a batch of seat position switches that may have problems with the solder.
The seat position switch signal could be missing or incorrect resulting in the driver and passenger airbag as well as the seat belt force limiter failing to activate according to specifications.
It's possible a driver may notice an illuminated airbag warning light in the instrument panel.
The recall is expected to begin May 31, 2021, when Mercedes dealerships will replace the seat position switches.
Customers with questions should call Mercedes at 800-367-6372.
