What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2020 GLC 350e hybrid electric vehicles. The high-voltage wiring harness shield may not withstand the electrical loads produced under certain driving conditions, possibly causing an electrical malfunction and resulting in a stall.

The risk

A vehicle stall can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the high-voltage wiring harness, free of charge. The recall began December 11, 2020. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA's number for this recall is 2020110008.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
