## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain C and E\-Class convertible models, the head restraints on the rear seats may not have been properly assembled. As a result, the head restraints may not latch properly, and could move or detach from the seat in a crash.

Safety Risk:

Head restraints that move or detach in a crash could increase the risk of an injury.

Corrective Action:

Mercedes\-Benz will contact owners by mail and instruct you to take your car to a dealer to inspect and replace the rear seat head restraints, as required. To reduce the safety risk, Mercedes\-Benz recommends that you should remove the rear seat head restraints and not use the rear seats until the recall repairs are completed.
