The Problem: The rear passenger door on the driver’s side may indicate that it’s locked when it may not be, increasing the risk of injury.

The Fix: Dealers will inspect the left rear door lock and replace it, as necessary, for free.

What Owners Should Do: Mercedes-Benz will begin notifying owners this month. Owners can call the automaker at 877-496-3691, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
