NHTSA recall 17V819000
Exterior Lighting · Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: These vehicles may have misadjusted headlights, possibly resulting in the low beam headlights insufficiently illuminating the roadway. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
Why it matters: An insufficiently illuminated roadway may increase the risk of a crash.
The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the headlamp adjustment, adjusting it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on January 12, 2018.
