The 2003 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK55 has 3 recalls, all centered on the same sunroof defect: the glass panel can detach from the vehicle while driving and land in the road, creating a hazard for other traffic.
The bonding between the glass sunroof panel and its sliding frame can deteriorate over time, leaving the panel insufficiently secured. If it lets go at speed, the glass can fall onto the roadway where it poses a collision risk to following vehicles. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the issue, which is why multiple recall campaigns exist for this same defect across a broad range of Mercedes-Benz models from this era.
