Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling approximately 33,456 vehicles from the 2001-2011 C-Class, CLK, E-Class, and CLS model years because the glass sunroof panel may not be properly secured. This defect can cause the sunroof panel to completely detach from the vehicle while driving. This recall is an expansion of a previous recall involving similar glass bonding issues, and dealers will inspect and replace the sunroof panel as necessary at no cost to the owner.
A sunroof panel that detaches from a moving vehicle becomes a road hazard, which significantly increases the risk of a crash for following or nearby motorists. No incidents or injuries have been reported related to this specific expansion at this time.
