Mercedes-Benz recalls G550 4MATICs and G63 AMGs

Mercedes-Benz USA (MBUSA) is recalling 2,427 model year 2019 G550 4MATICs and G63 AMGs.

The front door wiring harnesses may have been improperly routed causing damage to the individual wires during opening and closing of the front doors.

The damage to certain wires can affect safety features such as the side impact restraint system, the automatic unlocking of the door in the event of a crash, or the vehicle location in an emergency call.

All of these could increase the risk of an injury in a crash.

What to do

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect, modify, or replace the front door wiring harness in the event damage has occurred free of charge.

The recall is expected to begin January 14, 2020.

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