About this case

Two Mercedes-AMG owners filed a proposed class action alleging that raised metallic AMG logos embedded in vehicle seats can become dangerously hot and cause burns to occupants. The lawsuit seeks compensation for medical expenses, pain, and emotional distress, as well as costs to remove the logos; the case is in its early stages and no class has been certified.
