Communication Vehicle recall #19V787000 · 2019 · 24,226 vehicles

What's wrong: Mercedes-benz USA, LLC. (mbusa) is recalling certain 2013-2017 vehicles due to a software fault that May cause the date and time for the emergency call system (ecall) to differ from the actual date and time, potentially relaying an inaccurate vehicle location. For a full list of the affected models visit: https://static.NHTSA.gov/odi/rcl/2019/rmisc-19v787-4620.pdf

Why it matters: An inaccurate vehicle location May delay emergency responders, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Mbusa has initiated an over the air (ota) remote update. Mbusa will also notify owners, and dealers will check software for a successful ota or update the communication module software as needed, free of charge. The recall began December 23, 2019.
