The defect
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling a 2019 S450 vehicle. The A, B, and C pillar covers may have been improperly installed, possibly affecting the deployment of the side curtain air bags and allowing the covers to detach in the event of a crash.
The risk
If a side curtain air bag does not deploy as intended, or the pillar covers detach during a crash, there is an increased risk of injury.
