Details

What's wrong: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (mbusa) is recalling certain 2020 Gle350 4matic and Gle450 4matic vehicles. The connection between the fuel filler pipe and the fuel tank may have been improperly welded, allowing a fuel leak.

Why it matters: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel tank, free of charge. The recall began October 18, 2019.
