Known issues on the 2016 GL350. On the federal record, this model year of the GL350 carries four recalls. In certain vehicles built between April 2014 and May 2016, the front passenger seat's occupant classification calibration could misread the occupant as a child seat and switch off the passenger air bag; a software update corrects it. Certain vehicles have a power steering connector that could let water into the control unit, cutting steering assist. Three complaints cite the electrical system, speed control and exterior lighting. Steering, air bag and electrical procedures, wiring diagrams and diagnostics apply.
