What's wrong: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (mbusa) is recalling certain 2020 E450, Amg E63S, Glc300, Amg GLC43, Amg GLC63, Amg GT53, and Amg GT63 vehicles equipped with rear seatbacks that can be electrically unlatched. The left-rear seatback latch may not be strong enough to withstand certain loads. If cargo were to strike the left-rear seatback, the latch may fail.

Why it matters: In the event of a crash, if the left-rear seatback latch fails, it can increase the risk of injury.

The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left-rear seatback latch, free of charge. The recall began August 17, 2020.
