Mercedes-Benz to recall more than 310,000 US vehicles citing risk of failure to detect open door 

July 30 (Reuters) – Mercedes-Benz is recalling 310,667 vehicles in the U.S. due to risk of failure to detect an open door, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Thursday.

The recall includes models such as CLA, A-Class, C-Class, CLE, GLA/GLB, and GLC vehicles, the NHTSA said, adding that dealers will replace the driver’s door lock free of charge.

The failure to detect an open door, due to a corroded micro-switch in driver’s door lock, could prevent the auto-park brake from engaging automatically and result in a vehicle rollaway, the agency said.
