An inaccurate vehicle location may delay emergency responders, increasing the risk of injury.
3 safety recall campaigns, 12 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
An inaccurate vehicle location may delay emergency responders, increasing the risk of injury.
The leaking oil in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
If the bolts are not properly torqued, the seat belt anchor bolts may continue to loosen and in the the event of a crash, the belted occupant may not be properly restrained, increasing the risk of injury.
Two 2013 MERCEDES BENZ GL350s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
