06- Tires#2026167
9,044 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, winter tires with the wrong load rating may have been installed. As a result, the tires may be overloaded. This could cause poor handling or a tire failure. Safety Risk: Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the winter tires.
- Label#2022343
5,116 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the gross axle weight ratings (GAWR) are higher than the allowable maximum load for the tires. As a result, the tires could be overloaded. Driving a vehicle with tires that are overloaded could cause poor handling and/or a tire failure. Safety Risk: Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the tire and loading information labels on the B-pillar and fuel filler door and provide you with an add-on for the owner's manual. The dealer will also inspect the tires and, if necessary, replace them.
- Fuel System#2022103
5,418 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the connections on the fuel supply hose may not be properly attached. As a result, fuel could leak in the engine compartment. Safety Risk: A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to check the upper and lower connections on the fuel transition hose. The dealer will replace the clamps and the fuel hose, if required.
- Powertrain#2020256
38 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the propeller shaft may not be properly attached to the intermediate bearing. As a result, the propeller shaft joint could wear out. This could cause vibrations that the airbag (SRS) control unit interprets as a crash and deploy the front airbags. Safety Risk: A sudden deployment of the front airbags without a crash could create a risk of injury. This could also startle the driver, which may lead to a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the propeller shaft and replace it, if necessary.
- Electrical#2019515
1,798 units affected
Issue: Certain vans equipped with an integrated backup battery do not have a cover installed over the front passenger's seat base. As a result, if an object made of a conductive material is dropped into the opening, it could make contact with the battery terminals. This could result in a short circuit. Safety Risk: A short circuit could increase the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to install a cover over the front passenger's seat base. Consumers should not use a seat base with a battery as a storage compartment.
- Seats And Restraints#2019468
39 units affected
Issue: On certain vans, the front and/or rear seat head restraints may not be properly assembled. This could allow the head restraint housing to come loose and possibly detach. Safety Risk: A head restraint that is loose or detaches in a crash could increase the risk of injury to occupants. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to replace the head restraints.
