What's wrong: Mercedes-benz USA, LLC. (mbusa) is recalling certain 2001-2011 vehicles. The bonding between the glass panel and the sliding roof frame May deteriorate, possibly resulting in the glass panel detaching from the vehicle. For a full list of the affected models visit: https://static.NHTSA.gov/odi/rcl/2019/rmisc-19v918-4126.pdf

Why it matters: A detached glass panel can separate from the vehicle and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the glass panel bonding and replace the sliding roof, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began July 10, 2020.
