Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling approximately 161,000 vehicles, including certain 2020-2022 GLE350, GLE450, GLS450, and several other 2020-2022 GLE and GLS models. A manufacturing error can cause the rear door window trim bars to detach from the vehicle while driving. Authorized dealers will inspect and secure these trim bars free of charge to prevent them from falling off.
If the trim bars detach while the vehicle is in motion, they can fall into the roadway and become a hazard for other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash or injury to people outside the vehicle.
