Insights by Echo AI

Mercedes-Benz is recalling over 310,000 vehicles in the U.S. due to a defect in the driver's door lock microswitch that can cause the automatic parking brake or Auto-Park function to fail to engage when the driver's door is opened. This could result in the vehicle rolling away. The recall affects various models including A-Class, B-Class, CLA, C-Class, GLA, GLB, and GLC from the 2019-2026 model years. Mercedes has received reports of radios or lights not switching off automatically after occupants had exited, but no rollaway incidents have been reported in the U.S.
