What's wrong

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2020 GLS580 vehicles. Due to a software error, the sunroof may close unexpectedly when the "car wash mode" is activated.

The risk

A sunroof that closes unexpectedly can increase the risk of injury.

The fix

Dealers will update the sunroof control unit software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 15, 2023. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA's number for this recall is 2023110007.
