The defect
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2024-2026 AMG GT, C-Class, E-Class, SL, CLE, and GLC vehicles. The infotainment control unit may reset while the vehicle is in motion and cause the instrument panel display to go blank.
The risk
An instrument panel display that fails to show critical safety information, such as the speedometer and warning lights, increases the risk of a crash.
