2 recalls covering model years 2025, 2026. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
Certain Mercedes-Benz vehicles have a micro-switch in the driver's door lock that can corrode. When this happens, the switch may fail to detect that the door is open, which can prevent the electronic parking brake's Auto-Park feature from engaging on its own. Without the parking brake engaging automatically, the vehicle may roll away on its own.
Some Mercedes-Benz GLB 250, GLB 250 4MATIC, and GLB 35 4MATIC vehicles have right-side front and rear tires with damage to the sidewall, the tire's outer wall. This sidewall damage can cause the tire to suddenly lose air pressure.
Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.
