If this happens, the seat occupant would not be able to latch the seat belt. Safety Risk: Being unable to latch your seat belt can increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to adjust the positioning of the second-row middle seat belt buckle.
