Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling a specific 2023 EQS 450+ vehicle due to a manufacturing defect where mounting brackets near the roof may have sharp edges. These sharp edges can tear the side-curtain airbag as it inflates during a crash, preventing it from protecting passengers correctly. Dealers will inspect and replace the window airbags and mounting brackets as needed at no cost to the owner.
If the side-curtain airbag is damaged by a sharp bracket during deployment, it may not provide the necessary protection to prevent injuries or occupant ejection during a side-impact collision.
Inspection and potential replacement of airbags and brackets.
