What this recall means for you
Certain wagon models have a rear spoiler that may come loose from its mounting while the vehicle is being driven. A detached spoiler can land on the road and create a hazard for other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
If you own an affected vehicle, the manufacturer will notify you directly. Authorized dealers will inspect the spoiler's mounting and correct it where needed, at no cost to you. This recall expands an earlier recall, so vehicles covered by either notice should be checked.
You can contact Mercedes-Benz USA customer service at 1-800-367-6372 (recall number 2019090008), or check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls. Schedule the free inspection with an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
