What's wrong: The affected vehicles have intake or exhaust camshafts whose welds may fail and possibly cause engine damage.
Why it matters: Engine damage may result in a stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Mercedes-benz will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected camshafts, free of charge. Interim notices were mailed to owners on December 9, 2015. The recall began on December 23, 2015.
