Issue

Issue:
The interior covers on the A-, B-, and C-pillars may not have been installed correctly. In a crash requiring the activation of the side curtain airbags, the pillar covers could detach. This could cause the curtain airbags not to open correctly. In addition, the pillar covers could be projected toward people in the vehicle.

Safety Risk:
In a crash where the side curtain airbags deploy, this could increase the risk of injury.

Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify the owner by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the interior covers on the A-, B-, and C-pillars. The covers will be reinstalled correctly, if necessary.
