Mercedes-Benz GLC

The problem

Certain bolt connections in the dashboard area may not be tightened to the correct torque. This can impair the restraining effect of the driver airbag, passenger airbag or knee airbag. In the event of an accident involving airbag deployment, this increases the risk of injury to the vehicle's occupants. Moreover, if the bolting for the 12V electric auxiliary heater connections is affected, the vehicle can catch fire.

The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
