In addition, several Mercedes-Benz models have been recalled for potentially dangerous defects. For example, certain 2021 AMG GLS63, 2020-2022 GLS450 and GLS580 vehicles were recalled due to a defective seatback lock that could fail in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Certain 2006-2012 ML-Class, GL-Class and R-Class vehicles were also recalled due to potential brake failure from a defective brake booster. Other recent recalls involve defective batteries, window trim bars, rearview cameras, ground connection bolts, and airbags.

How Does a Mercedes-Benz Lemon Law Case Work in California?

If you notice a defect with your new Mercedes-Benz, take your vehicle to an authorized dealership or repair shop. Explain what the issue is and make sure your concerns are accurately reflected in the repair order.

Under California’s Lemon Law, auto manufacturers are required to promptly repair vehicle defects that are covered by a warranty. If a defect cannot be repaired within a reasonable number of attempts, the vehicle is declared a “lemon.” At this point, the driver who owns or leases the vehicle is entitled to a resolution: a refund of all amounts paid or payable, a replacement vehicle of the same MSRP value, or a cash settlement.

A “reasonable” number of repair attempts differs from state to state. In California, it is not a specific number; rather, it is determined on a case-by-case basis according to the specific circumstances, such as the severity of the defect. In addition, the vehicle does not have to be within the first 18,000 miles or 18 months of delivery to qualify for a remedy under the California Lemon Law.
