Mercedes-Benz affected seat adjusters may allow the seats to move in the event of a crash.
The short version
Midwest Automotive Designs, LLC reported a problem with the front anchorage. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected seat adjusters may allow the seats to move in the event of a crash. As such, these adjusters fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages", and 207 "Seating Systems."
If the seat moves in the event of a crash, the seat occupant would be at an increased risk of injury.
Midwest will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left slide track, free of charge.
