5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information describes potential risks involving the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Metris inspection, steering unit, seat, battery, driveshaft, brake, owner manual, and emergency-call system. Missing safety inspections may leave loose parts undetected; steering-assist loss can make control more difficult; seat hardware may increase injury risk; an uncovered battery can create a fire risk; and driveshaft damage may cause loss of drive or unexpected airbag deployment. Brake-fluid leakage can reduce braking performance, while incorrect eCall location data can delay responders. Waiting to verify a recall can leave a known safety concern unresolved. A VIN check identifies the campaigns that apply to your vehicle.
