Mercedes windshield camera and mirror may be insufficiently attached
Mercedes-Benz is recalling certain 2024-2025 GLE, GLS and AMG models because the multi-purpose camera and rearview mirror may be insufficiently attached to the windshield and may detach.
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm where injury has not yet been reported: the consequences are reduced mirror visibility and loss of driver-assistance features, while the vehicle retains control, propulsion and braking.
