What the fix does
Dealers will inspect the sunroof panel and replace it if necessary at no cost to you.
The 2004 Mercedes-Benz AMG C32 has 3 recalls, all centering on the same sunroof defect: the bonding between the glass panel and the sliding roof frame can deteriorate, allowing the panel to detach from the vehicle while driving.
When the glass separates, it can fall into traffic and become a hazard for other drivers and pedestrians. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the issue, which is why multiple recall campaigns exist for this same problem. The sunroof glass can come free at highway speeds without warning, giving neither the driver nor anyone nearby time to react.
