Mercedes-Benz while buckling the seat belt, the middle seat belt buckle could be pushed down into the gap below the seat cushion.
The short version
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. reported a problem with the rear/other buckle assembly. Here is what owners need to know.
While buckling the seat belt, the middle seat belt buckle could be pushed down into the gap below the seat cushion. If the buckle can't be retrieved, the buckle latch will be inoperable and unable to restrain an occupant.
An unrestrained occupant has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will secure the middle seat belt buckle, free of charge.
