Mercedes-Benz owner's manuals do not include information regarding the adjustment of the head restraints of the third row seats.
The short version
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. reported a problem with the other owners/service/other manual. Here is what owners need to know.
The owner's manuals do not include information regarding the adjustment of the head restraints of the third row seats. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 202a, "Head Restraints."
Improperly adjusted head restraints increase the risk of injury to the third row seat passengers in the event of a crash.
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealer's will provide a supplementary owner's manual booklet with the necessary information, free of charge.
