| 2021045 | 2021-02-03. Seats And Restraints. Issue: On certain C-Class cabriolet models equipped with the PRE-SAFE system, the front seat belts may not retract completely to their storage position. Canadian regulations require seat belts to retract fully when not in use. Safety Risk: If the seat belt does not fully retract, the occupant may find the operation of the seat belt inconvenient and not wear it. This could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the function of the front seat belt retractors and adjust the dampening foam, if necessary. |

| 2019554 | 2019-11-06. Seats And Restraints. Issue: On certain vehicles, there may be a problem with the front seat belt buckles. This could cause the seat belt warnings to turn on, even if the front seat belts are buckled. If the driver ignores these warnings, the PRE-SAFE and airbag systems may not function properly. Safety Risk: A seat belt pretensioner or airbag system that does not work properly in a crash could increase the risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to check the front seat belt buckles and replace them if necessary. |
| 2019091 | 2019-02-26. Seats And Restraints. Issue: On certain coupe and cabriolet models, the front seatbacks may not fully lock on the right side. In a crash, a seatback that is not properly locked could allow unsecured objects from the rear seats to move forward. Safety Risk: A seatback that is not properly locked could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect front seatbacks and replace them as necessary. Note: This is an expansion of Recall 2018-161. |
| 2018655 | 2018-11-28. Seats And Restraints. On certain coupe and cabriolet models, the switches that detect if a seat belt is buckled may not function properly. This could cause a buckled seat belt to be incorrectly detected as unbuckled. In the event of a crash, this could cause the seat belt tensioning system not to work as designed, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the affected seat belt buckles. |
| 2018161 | 2018-04-04. Seats And Restraints. On certain vehicles, the seatbacks of the front seats may not fully lock on the right-hand side of the respective seat. If the seatback is improperly locked, in the event of a crash, unsecured objects in the rear seats might not be held back and the risk of injury to the front occupants would be increased. Correction: Dealers will inspect the locking of the front seatbacks, and replace the seatbacks as necessary. Note: This recall is superseded by recall 2019091. Please see <a href="http://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/detail.aspx?lang=eng&&rn=2019091">recall 2019091</a> for more information. |
| 2018113 | 2018-03-07. Seats And Restraints. On certain vehicles equipped with AMG Performance Seats, the welding between the backrest rail and the backrest metal fitting of the driver and/or passenger seat might not meet specifications. The metal fitting may disengage from the backrest rail, which could increase the risk of injury to front seat occupants in the event of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect the backrest frames of the front seats, and replace them as necessary. Note: This recall affects C43 AMG, C63 and E63 AMG models only. |
A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
