SEOCONTENT-START

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL INTERIM NOTICE This notice applies to your vehicle VIN: Replace Tire and Loading Information Label NHTSA Recall #22V073 March, 2022 Dear Valued Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Owner: This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Sprinter vans, has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain Model Year (“MY”) 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vehicles. Our records indicate that your vehicle is included in the affected population of vehicles. MBAG has determined that on certain Sprinter vehicles, the tire and loading information label on the B-pillar could contain erroneous values that overstate the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. Due to erroneous values for the maximum permissible combined vehicle weight on the tire and loading information label on the B-pillar, overloading of the vehicle could exceed the permissible total weight. As a consequence, over time, this could cause excessive tire wear and in a worst case scenario, could lead to tire failure, which could increase the risk of a crash. An authorized Mercedes-Benz Sprinter dealer will check the tire and loading information label and replace it with a corrected label. Additionally, a visual inspection of the tires for excessive wear will be conducted. If necessary, tires with excess wear will be replaced on the affected axles. Unfortunately, the parts to remedy this issue are currently not yet available. We are working to obtain the necessary parts to correct this condition as quickly as possible. As the parts become available, we will send you another letter asking you to take your vehicle to an authorized Mercedes-Benz Sprinter dealer to have the recall completed free of charge. Should you have any concerns or questions regarding your vehicle before you receive the next recall letter when parts are available, please contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Sprinter dealer. If for any reason a dealer is unable to remedy your situation, we are always happy to hear from you. Please contact us at 1-800-367-6372. A vehicle identification number (VIN)-based recall lookup tool on our website offers a search function that will indicate whether a vehicle has been subject to a safety recall, and whether that vehicle has had the free remedy performed. Please visit https://www.mbvans.com/en/recall-information and enter your 17 digit VIN in the VIN Look-up tool. We also encourage you to sign up for recall alerts at www.nhtsa.gov/alerts.
