Two drivers of luxury Mercedes-AMG vehicles have initiated a class action lawsuit against the automaker, alleging that the raised metallic AMG logo on driver's seats becomes excessively hot, potentially causing burns. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court of California's Western division, contends that the defective design of certain Mercedes-AMG vehicles allows the logo to contact an occupant's upper back, neck, or shoulder. Plaintiffs Gabriel Lahijani and Karendeep "Karina" Bath seek compensation for medical expenses, pain, suffering, and emotional distress, as well as funding for other car owners to remove the logo from their vehicles. Mercedes-Benz is yet to comment on the allegations. The lawsuit comes amidst a recent settlement by Mercedes-Benz USA and parent company Daimler AG, who agreed to pay $149.6 million to resolve allegations of secretly installing emission test-optimizing devices in hundreds of thousands of vehicles between 2008 and 2016.
