— Mercedes-Benz has issued three recalls for 2020 GLB250 SUVs, the largest which includes 5,680 vehicles.
Mercedes-Benz GLB250 Recall (Wheel Well Seal)
The recall was ordered because water may enter through the wheel well area into the front occupant foot wells.
Mercedes says this can damage electrical components and cause the instrument panels to go blank. Additionally, the electrical problems can cause the engines to stall while driving or the GLB250 SUVs may not start.
The automaker says the body of the vehicle may not be sealed in the front wheel well area.
Mercedes dealers will seal the wheel well areas and repair any water damaged areas.
