The short version
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.
The seatbacks of the front seats may not properly lock on the right side of the seat.
If the seatback does not properly lock, in the event of a crash, the seatbacks may fold forward, increasing the risk of injury.
