Mercedes-Benz is recalling a handful of GLE and GLS large SUVs due to an issue that could prevent their safety technologies from working properly.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the multi-purpose camera and/or the interior rear-view mirror on the windscreen may not have been bonded correctly and could detach,” the company says in its recall notice.
“If this occurs, the advanced driver assistance systems may not operate as intended and the driver’s rear vision may be impaired.
“A loss of these systems or an impaired rear vision could increase the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death vehicle occupants, other road users and any persons located behind the vehicle.”
