4 recalls across 2 model years
The Mercedes-Benz GLS 550 has 4 recalls covering the 2018-2019 model years, with the most serious being a brake defect on 2018 vehicles that reduces braking performance and raises the risk of a crash.
Two recalls affect the automatic emergency calling system across both model years. On 2018-2019 models, the eCall system can send emergency responders to the wrong location following a crash. On 2019 models, a separate eCall fault can disable the system entirely, preventing any contact with an emergency services center after a collision. There is also a door latch issue on 2018 models where a door that appears locked can open unexpectedly while driving, raising the risk of injury to occupants.
