Mercedes is recalling the C-Class, CLC, CLK, CLS and E-Class models to workshops worldwide. The recall has been known since 2020 and has now been extended to 425,913 vehicles. In Germany, 161,979 vehicles are affected. The reason for the measure is a bonding that does not comply with the specification, which can cause the sliding glass sunroof to detach.
In the workshop, the glass adhesions are checked and replaced if necessary. This can take up to 30 minutes or several hours in the case of a replacement. The KBA is investigating the recall under reference number “012412”, and the internal code is “7891009”.
