5 recalls across 1 model year
The Mercedes-Benz C63S AMG has 5 recalls all affecting the 2017 model year, the most serious being a driver airbag that can deploy without warning, raising the risk of injury and causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
The 2017 model year also has a seatbelt pretensioner recall where the front pretensioners can fail to tighten the belts in a crash, leaving occupants less restrained than intended. On the seat structure side, the front seatbacks on 2017 Coupe and Cabriolet body styles can fail to lock properly on the right side, allowing them to fold forward in a crash. The rear beltline trim on 2017 Cabriolet models can separate from the body while driving and become a road hazard for other vehicles. There is also a software fault in the emergency call system affecting 2017 models where an incorrect date and time can cause the system to relay a wrong vehicle location to emergency responders, potentially delaying their arrival.
