Details

This recall was replaced by Transport Canada Recall No.

2021-216.

Issue: On certain vehicles, the power steering return hoses may detach at their connection points.

If this happens, power steering fluid can leak.

This would result in a loss of power steering assist and power steering fluid could leak onto the road.

Safety Risk: A loss of power steering assist may result in a sudden increase in steering effort, especially at low speeds.

This could increase the risk of a crash.

A power steering fluid leak could create a road hazard.

Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to check the power steering return hose connections.

Dealers will install a clamp at the connection point, if needed.
