Mercedes-Benz affected vehicles may have a damaged steering column-mounted shift lever module.
The short version
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. reported a problem with the automatic transmission control module (tcm/pcm/tecm). Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles may have a damaged steering column-mounted shift lever module. If the internal circuit board is damaged, moving the shift lever will not select a transmission gear.
If the vehicle does not move forward or backward as selected by the driver with the shift lever, there is an increased risk of a crash.
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering column-mounted shift lever module, free of charge.
