Mercedes-Benz has announced a recall of 144,049 vehicles in the United States over concerns linked to instrument panel display failures, according to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on Friday.
The recall covers certain 2024–2026 model year vehicles, including the AMG GT, C-Class, E-Class, SL, CLE and GLC.
According to the regulator, the issue stems from the infotainment control unit, which may malfunction while the vehicle is in motion.
“The infotainment control unit, which is responsible for navigation and multimedia features, may reset while the vehicle is in motion and cause the instrument panel display to go blank,” the regulator said.
The NHTSA added that the problem could affect driver visibility of critical information displayed on the dashboard.
In response, the automaker has outlined a corrective measure to address the defect at no cost to owners.
“Dealers will update the infotainment control unit software at no cost,” NHTSA added.
