What's the Problem?
This recall affects Mercedes GLB 250 vehicles from model year 2020, according to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The window airbag in the A-pillar area on affected vehicles may not be mounted correctly, affecting its performance. "In the event of a crash that deploys the window air bag, the catch strap could disconnect and increase the risk of injury," NHTSA said.
