Never mind, I just figured out how to use the VIN search tool and it says no recalls so I'm just an idiot.

This is the Email I got:

Your vehicle MAY be involved in a safety recall and MAY create a safety risk for you or your passengers. If left unrepaired, a potential safety defect could lead to injury or even death. Safety defects must be repaired by a dealer at no cost to you.

Why am I getting this email?
You are receiving this message because you requested to be notified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) if there is a safety recall that may affect your vehicle.

The following may apply to one or more of your vehicles if your vehicle is listed below. Click on the NHTSA Campaign ID number below to read more about the safety issue and the reason for the recall.

To find out if your specific vehicle is included in the recall, use our VIN Look-up Tool.

NHTSA Campaign ID Number : 16V081
Manufacturer : Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
Make / Model Years : CHRYSLER / 2006-2007
MERCEDES BENZ / 2005-2014
Subject : Driver's Frontal Air Bag Inflator May Rupture
