The ground connection of the passenger airbag may be inadequate and any electrostatic charge might not be conducted away through it.
As a result, the passenger airbag could be triggered unnecessarily even if it has been properly deactivated because a child seat is being used on the passenger seat. This could lead to an increased risk of accident or injury.
The Mercedes-Benz GLA models affected by this recall were manufactured between 19 February 2020 and 12 August 2020.

What should an owner do if there's a recall?
Please note that the recall may not apply to all vehicles produced in a given period. If you think your car might be affected, you should immediately contact a Mercedes-Benz dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details. You can use our sample request text. After reporting the vehicle's VIN code, you will find out if the defect is present on your car, or if it has already been resolved by the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.
If you wish to know more about the eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accident damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), in that case, we suggest going to this page.
