Karendeep 'Karina' Bath is suing Mercedes-Benz, alleging the metallic AMG logo on her car's seat heated up in the sun and burned her skin. She posted videos of the injury on Instagram and said a law firm contacted her to join a class-action lawsuit. Attorney Rob Freund shared a court document on X that also names another plaintiff, Gabriel Lahijani. The complaint, which has not been verified by the court, claims Lahijani suffered a second-degree burn from the logo after parking in the sun in Los Angeles. Mercedes-Benz has not publicly commented on the allegations. Hindustan Times said it has not independently verified the claims.
