Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 4 vehicles this is a small campaign: 96% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Mercedes-Benz vehicles have been recalled over the structure 42 times before this, most recently in July 2024 as 24V520000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 21 complaints with NHTSA, 8 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 7 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V481000 (latches/locks/linkages), 25V533000 (steering), 25V379000 (structure), 25V255000 (electrical system).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC with NHTSA on September 9, 2024 as campaign 24V658000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
