Recall Details
Transport Canada Recall # 2018741Recall Date2018/12/28Notification TypeSafety MfrSystemAirbagManufacturer Recall NumberUnits Affected 87,317CategoryCar, SUVRecall
DetailsOn certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag module. Note: Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.MakeModelModel Year(s) AffectedMERCEDES-BENZAMG SLS2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015MERCEDES-BENZC CLASS2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017MERCEDES-BENZE CLASS2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017MERCEDES-BENZGLK CLASS2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
