Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify completion of the door lock recall.
- Obtain repair records for both rearview camera recalls.
- Confirm both emergency-call recalls were completed and ask about system warnings.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mercedes-Benz dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
