Moderate #20V226000 NHTSA Official Language
Component

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

Manufacturer
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
What Happened
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2020 GLE 350 and GLE 450 vehicles equipped with an electrically adjustable second-row seat. The wiring harness under the seat may become pinched during seat adjustment, possibly causing damage to the wires.
Risk if Unfixed
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.
