Here’s a type of recall you don’t see everyday: Mercedes-Benz is recalling some 2011 G-Class SUV’s because of faulty interior trim.
Only 189 2011 G550 and G55 AMG vehicles are potentially affected, but the issue is fairly serious. In the event of a passenger airbag deployment, a molding strip on the airbag cover flap could dislodge and “become a projectile in the passenger compartment.”
Mercedes will be notifying owners in September, and dealers will fix the trim strip, gratis.
