Are there safety recalls on the 2003 Mercedes-benz c240?

NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for the 2003 Mercedes-benz c240 model year. That covers the model year, not this individual car: to see whether a specific vehicle still needs a recall repair, check its VIN on NHTSA.gov or ask a franchised dealer. Recall repairs are done at no charge.
