Reported risk: Issue:
In certain conditions, the vehicle could roll-away after placing the transmission in the "P" (Park) position if the parking brake is not set.
Note: You should always follow the parking procedure in the owner's manual, and set the parking brake each time that you park.
Safety Risk:
A parked vehicle that rolls away could create a risk of a crash or an injury.
Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development. Once a recall repair is available, Mercedes-Benz will send you a second notice and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealer to update the electronic stability program (ESP) control unit.
