Mercedes-Benz rear passenger door on the driver side may indicate that it is locked, when it may not be.
The short version
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. reported a problem with the doors latch. Here is what owners need to know.
The rear passenger door on the driver side may indicate that it is locked, when it may not be. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 206, "Door Locks and Door Retention Components."
If the door appears to be locked, the door may be unintentionally opened, increasing the risk of injury.
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the left rear door lock, replacing it as necessary, free of charge.
