Mercedes-Benz vehicle's electronic stability program (ESP) may display an incorrect warning light during an ESP system failure.
The short version
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC reported a problem with the control module software. Here is what owners need to know.
The vehicle's electronic stability program (ESP) may display an incorrect warning light during an ESP system failure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 126, "Electronic Stability Control Systems," and 101, "Control and Displays."
An incorrectly displayed warning light can fail to alert the driver to critical safety information, increasing the risk of a crash.
Take it to a dealer — they will update the ESP control unit software, free of charge.
