Mercedes adds new CLA-class to their lineup for 2014
Like a girl you’re not quite sure you should bring home to mama, Mercedes-Benz is bringing a new member to its lineup with the all-new CLA-class for 2014.

Mercedes-Benz Recalls The Geländewagen
One of the rarest and most unexampled offerings from Mercedes-Benz will soon be recalled. Simply refered to as the G-Class, the Geländewagen may injury its occupants unnecessarily in the event of frontal air bag deployment.

Soon enough, certain Mercedes-Benz ML SUVs will be recalled. The problem lies within the vehicle’s floor mats which can cause a much more serious issue.
