Known issues on the 2017 S600. The federal record holds three recalls for this year, each tied to a safety system. On certain cars the front seat belt pretensioners might not tighten the belts as designed in a collision, so dealers installed new front belts. Certain cars could also show the rear door on the driver's side as locked when it was not, letting it be opened by accident; dealers inspected that lock and replaced it if needed. The third, again for certain cars, involved communication module software that could report an incorrect position to the emergency call service after a crash, corrected by an update. Seat belt, door lock and telematics procedures and wiring diagrams are included.
