## What is wrong

Mercedes\-Benz USA, LLC. \(MBUSA\) is recalling certain 2020 AMG GT vehicles.  The emergency call system \(eCall\) communication module may be missing the wiring harness ground line, which may cause the system to relay an inaccurate vehicle location, and restrict the ability to communicate verbally with the call center.


## What can happen

An inaccurate vehicle location or the inability to communicate with the call center may delay emergency responders, increasing the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.


## The remedy

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will repair the wiring harness of the communication module, free of charge.  The recall began July 2, 2020.  Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1\-800\-367\-6372.  MBUSA's number for this recall is 2020060010.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
