The "news" are noted a great many places, among them:
http://content.usatoday.com/communit...wer-steering/1

The production range in question is between May 2009 - February 2010.

FYI, to whom it may concern, is a German article including the (350 only?) GLKs as well : http://blog.mercedes-benz-passion.co...klasse-zuruck/

hopefully my 2nd shipment 2011 GLK isnt affected :S, wouldnt be cool to visit a service dept within a week of having the car

There is NO Mention of any GLK's recalled that were shipped to the U.S. or Canada at this time.

I received the notice from NHTSA on Saturday. It reads as follows and does not include the GLK model.
