RECALL II: 2007 SLR MCLAREN
Shrawan January 25, 2008
It was not supposed to happen, but, to err is human. Mercedes-Benz is recalling 3 models of its 2007 SLR McLaren on the account of incorrectly installed windshields. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website says that “If a crash occurs, the windshield may not be retained, increasing the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant”. It also added that “either the primer or activator was missing at the time of installation.” The recall is expected to begin this month. The dealer’s job will deal with removing the windshields, cleaning and reinstalling them correctly with primer and activator, as instructed by NHTSA. Owners can also reach Mercedes-Benz at (800) 367-6372 for further information.
