Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling 18 of its 2023 AMG C43 4MATIC vehicles equipped with AMG Performance seats because the seat wiring harness may have been routed incorrectly during manufacturing. This error can cause the wiring to become damaged when the seat is fully reclined, potentially disabling critical safety systems. Owners of these vehicles will receive a free inspection and rerouting of the harness by authorized dealers to ensure the system functions correctly.
A damaged wiring harness can prevent the side airbags installed within the seats from deploying during a crash. If these airbags fail to deploy as intended, there is a significantly increased risk of injury to the driver or passenger during a collision.
Dealers will inspect and reroute the seat wiring harness.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
