Over-the-air update OTA - 5496236

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

Mercedes-Benz AG, the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain subject vehicles, the software for the airbag control unit does not correspond to the latest series production configuration. The airbag control unit will be updated to improve the vehicle charging functionality during future OTA updates. MBUSA will conduct an OTA service campaign. Remote software updates are automatically downloaded and installed in the customer’s vehicle free of charge and do not require a dealer visit.

Listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned: the document says which.
