WASHINGTON - Mercedes-Benz is recalling around 85,000 of its luxury cars due to potential steering problems.

The recalled vehicles include 2010 Mercedes C-Class sedans as well 2010 and 2011 E-Class Coupe and Cabriolet models.

The German automaker is reporting that its possible the steering systems of the cars could "fail due to the loss of power steering fluid," sending the driver out of control.

Affected vehicles may have a higher chance of crashing, Mercedes Benz said.

Owners of the listed vehicles may return to a dealership for a free steering-system inspection, according to the company.
