Details

What's wrong: Mercedes-benz USA, LLC. (mbusa) is recalling one 2020 gle 450 vehicle. The windshield may not have been bonded correctly to the vehicle, possibly allowing it to separate from the vehicle and affect the full protective function of the passenger's frontal air bag in the event of a crash.

Why it matters: A separated windshield may reduce the effectiveness of the passenger air bag restraint system and increase the risk of injury in a crash.

The fix: Mbusa will notify the owner, and a dealer will inspect the windshield bonding and repair it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began August 31, 2020.
