German car maker Mercedes-Benz will recall some imported vehicles in China over faulty seat belts and software, China's top quality watchdog said on Monday.

The company has started a recall of 2014-2016 S 500 4MATIC and S 63 AMG 4MATIC vehicles, manufactured between Apr. 25, 2014 and Feb. 25, 2015, over defective seat belts, according to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine.
