The ML, GL (BR 164) and R-Class (BR 251) models manufactured between 2004 and 2015 are all affected by the recall. About 70,000 of these are in Germany.
Mercedes-Benz said in a statement: “We have found that in some of these vehicles the function of the brake booster can be affected by corrosion in the general area of the tyres.”
This could result in increased brake pedal force required to decelerate the vehicle and/or increase the stopping distance, the statement added.
Mercedes-Benz is starting an immediate recall of the aforementioned vehicles. In January 2020, 744,000 Mercedes-Benz vehicles in the US, of models manufactured between 2001 and 2011, were notified of a recall because the roof window panes could loosen and be dangerous.
The vehicles affected by the recall belong to dozens of models including the C-Class, CLK-Class, CLS-Class and E-Class. The notice clearly states that the recall error is due to the failure to meet the technical standards for glass panels to be attached to the roof door frames, causing the glass panels to come loose from the roof doors.
According to a spokesman for Mercedes-Benz in the US, dealers will be responsible for inspecting, repairing and even replacing the roof doors for vehicles affected by the recall. The company will reimburse the repair costs to car owners who fix this problem themselves.
