Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with 3.0L diesel engines. The crankshaft sensor in certain diesel engines could fail due to separation of bond wires from the lead frame in the sensor.

Why it matters: This results in an interruption in the electrical connection in the chip housing of the sensor. When this happens, affected vehicles may lose power. This could result in the vehicle becoming immediately inoperable increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Sprinter is handling the remedy for this campaign (please see 07V594). Dealers will replace the crankshaft sensor free of charge.
