Mercedes-Benz recalls over 92,000 cars
Mercedes-Benz has recalled more than 92,000 vehicles in the US due to a serious safety issue that could heighten the risk of injury in a crash.
The recall affects 92,851 cars from model years 2023 through 2025, all of which come equipped with panoramic sunroofs. The issue arises from a structural flaw that could cause the car's C-pillar, the rearmost support beam, to fail in certain collisions.
This could put passengers at risk, as their heads might make contact with the pillar, which may not absorb the impact as required by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
In a notice filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on June 9, Mercedes-Benz revealed that the recall impacts several models, and that those involved may not meet the necessary impact absorption standards. As a result, passengers could be exposed to greater danger in an accident.
What Should Owners Do?
Owners of the recalled vehicles should visit their nearest Mercedes-Benz dealership to have the C-pillar trim and roof lining modified at no cost. Notification letters will be sent out to affected customers on August 4, 2025. For more information, Mercedes-Benz owners can contact customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
