2020 MERCEDES-BENZ GLS CLASS Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS Class has 6 recalls, the most serious being a loose ground connection under the front passenger seat where wiring can overheat and melt, creating a fire risk. A misrouted air conditioning drain hose can allow water to leak into the cabin and short out electrical components, potentially disabling door locks, knocking out the emergency call system, reducing engine power, or preventing the vehicle from starting. On the safety equipment side, the locking springs for the third-row seat backrest may not have been installed correctly, leaving the backrest free to move in a crash. There is also a label discrepancy on vehicles equipped with Michelin Primacy Tour A/S tires, where the maximum pressure printed on the tire sidewall does not match the figure on the door placard and fuel cap, though this mismatch does not affect how safely the tires can be used.
