The short version

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. reported a problem with the electrical system. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

WHY IT MATTERS

Water entering electrical components, can result in malfunctions of the supplemental restraint system (SRS), failure to start, activation of the limp-home mode while driving, and an impairment of other features, increasing the risk of injury or crash.

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the air conditioning drain hose installation, correcting it if necessary, free of charge.
