NHTSA recall 21V216000
Seats · Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: The passenger seat limiter may allow the seat to be positioned too close to the air bag.
Why it matters: A seat too close to the air bag increases the risk of injury in the event of a crash necessitating the deployment of the frontal passenger air bag.
The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will recalibrate the passenger seat limiter, free of charge. The recall began April 29, 2021.
