Reported risk: Issue:
On certain electric vehicles, a software problem could cause the brake booster failsafe mode not to work properly. As a result, there could be a sudden increase in brake pedal force, if a fault is detected.
Safety Risk:
A sudden increase in brake pedal force can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the electronic stability control unit software.
Verify each fact at the issuing agency before acting. Recall scope, affected lots, and remediation instructions may be updated by the agency after our last sync.
