Mercedes-Benz recalls 11,000 model year 2023 GLC300s

Mercedes-Benz USA (MBUSA) is recalling 11,853 model year 2023 GLC300s.

The front tow eye may be inadequately threaded to the crossmember and can detach while the vehicle is being towed.

A detached tow eye can separate the vehicle from the tow truck, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

What to do

Dealers will inspect and replace the front crossmember -- as necessary -- free of charge.

Letters to owners notifying them of this issue are expected to be mailed November 10, 2023.

Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at (800) 367-6372.
