Details

What's wrong: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (mbusa) is recalling certain model year 2018 Mercedes-Benz Amg GT, Amg GT R, Amg GT C and Amg GT S vehicles. The seat belts may bind within the guidance loops possibly causing slack in the seat belts.

Why it matters: If the seat belt binds, slack may develop through occupant movement which may lead to increased personal injury in the event of a crash.

The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will reconfigure the seat belt guides, free of charge. The recall began March 30, 2018.
