The problem
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2020 AMG GT vehicles.

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will repair the wiring harness of the communication module, free of charge. The recall began July 2, 2020. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA's number for this recall is 2020060010.
