Latches/locks/linkages: doors, lock

NHTSA campaign 26V481000 · reported July 24, 2026 · Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC · 310,667 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2020-2021 CLA, 2019-2022 A-Class, 2022-2023 C-Class, 2024 CLE, 2020-2026 GLA/GLB, and 2023-2024 GLC vehicles.

This may result in a vehicle rollaway.

A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of a crash or injury.
The fix
Dealers will replace the driver's door lock, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed September 18, 2026. This will be a phased campaign, with the remedy becoming available in different phases based on model and model years. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
