These two recalls are the same underlying defect filed in two separate campaigns. Per the grouping rules, I'll treat them as one issue.
The 2019 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C has 2 recalls, both concerning the automatic emergency call system that can fail to connect with or accurately locate emergency responders after a crash.
The eCall system, which is designed to automatically contact emergency services and transmit the vehicle's location following a collision, may either send responders to the wrong location or fail to connect entirely. Either way, help could be delayed when it is most needed.
