As a result, the wiring could become damaged in a crash and cause the driver- and passenger-front airbags to deploy with too much force. rnrnSafety Risk: rnAn airbag that inflates with too much force could create an increased risk of injury in a crash. rnrnCorrective Actions: rnMercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, re-route the wiring harness.
