Recall - MERCEDES-BENZ ( 20V226000 )

Rear Seat Wiring Harness May Be Routed Incorrectly

Damaged wires may cause the rear side air bags to not deploy as intended. Additionally, the driver may not be warned if the second row right seat is not locked into place correctly after using the "Easy Entry" function. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
