ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

Issued by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC · Reported Sep 27, 2024 · 10,655 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2021-2022 GLE 350 and 2021-2022 GLE 450 vehicles. The front acceleration sensor's wiring harness may be routed incorrectly, which can prevent the front air bags from deploying properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

Consequence

An air bag that does not deploy properly can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and reroute the wiring harness, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 1, 2024. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA's number for this recall is 2024100006.
