Mercedes Recalling 2008 C-Class Models In The U.S.A.


Faulty rear seat belts are the reason behind a recall of 5,283 2008 MY Mercedes-Benz C-Class models in the USA. According to NHSTA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), the rear outboard seat belts do not comply with the lap-belt lockability requirement which enables the lap belt portion of the belt to be locked by the user to assist the use of older non-latch design child restraint devices.

Under certain circumstances, this situation may cause the locking mechanism not to perform as required by the standard for use with older non-latch child restraints. The recall will begin in the forthcoming weeks with Mercedes-Benz dealers replacing all potentially affected seat belts free of cost.
