Recall campaigns 6 of 10

22V6790002022-09-12

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC):CONTROL MODULE

Disabled anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control can increase the risk of a crash or injury. An electrical short circuit increases the risk of a fire.

22V3650002022-05-20

COMMUNICATION: AUTO CRASH NOTIFICATION

A disabled eCall system would prevent a vehicle occupant from contacting the emergency services call center in an emergency, potentially delaying emergency responders and increasing the risk of injury.

22V3140002022-05-09

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Improperly leveled headlights may project a glare, which can impact other drivers and increase the risk of a crash.

22V2320002022-04-08

BACK OVER PREVENTION:DISPLAY FUNCTION

An inoperable rearview camera display reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.

22V0780002022-02-11

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL

An incorrect air bag module may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash. In addition, the air bag module could detach from the steering wheel during deployment. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

21V8600002021-11-05

AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW

The driver-side window air bag may not function properly during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Two 2021 MERCEDES BENZ GLB 250s 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.
