It includes several models made between February 2013 and June 2017 including C-class, E-class, V-class, GLK-class, CLS-class, SLC-class, GLC SUV and VS20 VITO vehicles.<br/><br/>Most of the vehicles were made in China by Beijing Benz Automotive Co. About 12,500 were built by Fujian Benz Automotive Co. and about 36,000 were imported.<br/><br/>Dealers will replace faulty parts free of charge.<br/><br/>The announcement follows another recall that began last month of 4,653 imported Mercedes G-class sedans that had incorrect child-safety lock labels, Xinhua said.<br/><br/>Those vehicles were manufactured between Feb. 14, 2018, and Sept. 24, 2019.</p>
