Recall Alert: 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S
CARS.COM
Vehicles Affected: Approximately 140 model-year 2016 Mercedes-AMG GT S sport coupes manufactured between June 1 and July 24, 2015
The Problem: The adhesive bond between the carbon-fiber driveshaft and the rear flange may fail, causing a loss of torque to the rear wheels. If this happens, the driver may be unable to move the vehicle, or may experience deceleration if the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of acrash.
The Fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the carbon-fiber driveshaft, as necessary, for free.
What Owners Should Do: Mercedes-Benz will begin notifying owners this month. Owners can call the automaker at 800-367-6372, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or go to www.safercar.gov, for more info.
