The 2006 Mercedes-Benz B Class has two recalls, the more serious being a wiring insulation issue in the combination switch that can cause the front or rear wipers to stop working, reducing visibility in rain or snow and raising the risk of a crash.
The second recall is a documentation issue: the owner's manual for certain B200 and B200T vehicles contains incorrect instructions for fastening child restraints in the rear seat, which could lead to a child seat being secured improperly.
