Got a call from the dealer requesting the car for recall work, they couldn't give me any details other than it was something to do with the LED headlights and non safety related.

Anyone know more? I've checked both the .gov and Mercedes own web site recall checker, but they both come back as no outstanding recalls.

Just curious to know what they need to fix.

What year is yours? GLC headlights are bad for misting up but apparently that’s normal.

Nov 2020, I believe its a software update.

I don't have any misting up, and I'm not aware of any issues, very impressive in fact.

I've had a few issues with them auto adjusting for left/right traffic, but it's been ok recently.

Just to update this........its been in and had an 'LED control unit update', apparently the light distribution didn't meet manufactures specification.

I can only assume its something to do with dazzling oncoming traffic, rather than a functional error of some kind.
