Known issues on the 2014 CLS550. Four recalls apply. Certain cars may have air bags that do not deploy as intended in a crash; dealers update software in the affected control units. On certain others, the rubber seal along the rear edge of the engine bay could stick to the raised hood and fall onto hot exhaust components once it closes, which is why four additional clips are fitted. The sides of the LED tail lamps on certain cars could also stay dark. Suspension is named twice among 10 owner complaints, one of which reported a crash and one an injury. Suspension and restraint diagnostics are included.
