the problem: the status of the passenger-side airbag may not display correctly. if the passenger airbag is incorrectly displayed as on when it is not, front-seat passengers may be unaware that the airbag won't deploy in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
the fix: dealers will update the audio head unit software for free.
what owners should do: mercedes-benz will begin notifying owners jan. 2. owners can call the automaker at 800-367-6372, the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
