The short version

Daimler Vans USA, LLC reported a problem with the sensing system camera. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The rearview image may not display within 2 seconds from the start of the backing event. In addition, the rearview image may be obscured or covered by the visual display of the Emergency Call (eCall) pop-up window if the eCall system is activated while the reverse gear is engaged.

WHY IT MATTERS

A delayed or obstructed rearview camera display can reduce the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

DVUSA will notify owners, and dealers will perform a software update on the vehicles, free of charge.
