Mercedes-Benz GLC Class: Seats and Restraints
Affects Mercedes-Benz GLC Class · 2016–2018 — about 15K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the seat belt latch plate in the second seating row outboard seats might retract into the area between the C-pillar paneling and the rear side paneling. This could hinder the access to the seat belt latch plate for the outboard seat occupants. If a rear seat passenger does not fasten the seat belt, the risk of injury in the event of a crash could increase. Correction: Dealers will add a buffer element to the C-pillar paneling.
