NHTSA recall 17V272000
Electrical System · Daimler Vans USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: During vehicle servicing, the affected vehicles received software updates that may conflict with some of the vehicle's computers.
Why it matters: The improper software may cause problems with the electronic stability control system, the air bag control unit or the engine management software. These problems can result in an increased risk of a crash or an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The fix: Dvusa will notify owners, and Mercedes-Benz and freightliner dealers will update the affected control units on the vehicles, free of charge. An interim notice was sent to owners on July 12, 2017. The recall began on September 1, 2017.
