Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Occupants

NHTSA identifies two air bag recalls for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT. In one recall, the passenger frontal air bag inflator may explode, sending sharp metal fragments toward the passenger or other occupants. In the other, the driver’s frontal air bag inflator could rupture when deployment is required, creating a similar risk of metal fragments striking people in the vehicle. The possible consequences include serious injury or death. Waiting leaves a safety concern unresolved, especially when a crash can happen without warning. A prompt VIN check determines whether the manufacturer remedy remains open and whether the affected module should be replaced.
