The recall campaign will be visible on the www.NHTSA.gov website and may generate questions from customers. Affected VINs will be flagged in VMI as “OPEN” on September 15, 2023.
Issue
Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain MY 2021-2023 C-Class, E-Class, CLS, S-Class, SL, GT, GLC, GLE, GLS and G-Class (205/206, 213/238, 257, 223, 232, 290, 253, 167 and 463 platforms) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regards to material characteristics. As a consequence, the impeller might deform and then contact the fuel pump housing and result in mechanical resistance on the impeller.

Chronology Supplement for ODI 23V445
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub-supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process. In May 2023, MBAG’s fuel pump supplier determined the scope of potentially affected fuel pumps, which was then used to identify the potentially affected vehicle population.
On June 16, 2023, MBAG determined that a potential safety risk cannot be ruled out and decided to conduct a recall.
MBAG is currently aware of 2,031 warranty claims/field reports/service reports received from 30.08.2021 to 23.05.2023 in the USA. MBAG is not aware of any claims of injury, crashes or death worldwide due to this malfunction.
In July 2023, during the course of its worldwide product monitoring, MBAG identified additional field reports alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG’s initial review of these field reports determined that some of the vehicles involved in these reports were outside the recall population determined earlier in May 2023.
Based on a detailed analysis of field data, MBAG hypothesized that the occurrences described in these new field reports might be related to a supplier error similar to that identified in recall NHTSA # 23V-445. During October and November 2023, MBAG and its supplier conducted additional investigations to identify a potential root cause for the reported incidents, including retrieving damaged parts from vehicles for examination and analysis.
Based on these analyses, MBAG determined that additional batches of raw material used by its fuel pump supplier may also have deviated from specifications, and thus resulted in similar consequences as described before. As a result, the number of potentially affected vehicles is larger than the population initially identified by MBAG’s fuel pump supplier. On December 8, 2023, MBAG determined that a potential safety risk for the identified additional vehicles cannot be ruled out. Therefore, the company decided to expand the vehicle population for this recall to include additional vehicles whose fuel pump impellers were manufactured using batches of raw materials that were identified as containing this defect.
MBAG is aware of 1,901 related warranty claims or field reports received between May 14, 2022 to November 15, 2023. These claims and reports are in addition to the 2,031 claims and reports that MBAG received between August 30, 2021 and May 5, 2023 (identified in the Report submitted by MBAG on June 27, 2023). MBAG is not aware of any claims or reports of injury, fatality, or property damage worldwide related to this defect.

This notice applies to your vehicle, VIN:
Replace Fuel Pump Delivery Module NHTSA Recall ID: 23V445
August 2023
Dear Mercedes-Benz Owner: This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain model year (“MY”) 2021-2023 C-Class, E-Class, CLS, S-Class, SL, GT, GLC, GLE, GLS and G-Class vehicles. Our records indicate that your vehicle is included in the affected population.
What is the concern?
The fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications regarding its material characteristics. As a consequence, the impeller might deform and contact the fuel pump housing, resulting in mechanical resistance on the impeller. This could cause the fuel pump to stop operating. As a result, the vehicle could lose drive power, which could increase the risk of crash or injury. Before the fuel pump is switched off, the
� driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice a roughly running engine. Unfortunately, the remedy is not yet available. When the replacement fuel pump delivery module becomes available, we will send you another letter informing you to schedule an appointment with an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer to have this vehicle repair provided at no cost to you.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and look forward to taking care of this important safety issue immediately.
Sincerely,

Model Year 2021-2023 Replace Fuel Pump Delivery Module Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain MY 2021-2023 C-Class, E-Class, CLS, S-Class, SL, GT, GLC, GLE, GLS and G-Class (205/206, 213/238, 257, 223, 232, 290, 253, 167 and 463 platforms) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regards to material characteristics. As a consequence, the impeller might deform and then contact the fuel pump housing and result in mechanical resistance on the impeller. In some instances, this could cause the fuel pump to stop operating. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury. Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice a roughly running engine. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will replace the fuel pump delivery module on the affected vehicles. Prior to performing this Campaign:
• VMI must be checked before performing campaigns to verify that the campaign is required on a specific vehicle. Always check for any other open campaigns, and perform accordingly.
• Please review the entire Campaign bulletin and follow the repair procedure exactly as described. Approximately 82,654 vehicles are affected.

In some instances, this could cause the fuel pump to stop operating. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury. Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice a roughly running engine. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will replace the fuel pump delivery module on the affected vehicles. Prior to performing this Campaign:
• VMI must be checked before performing campaigns to verify that the campaign is required on a specific vehicle. Always check for any other open campaigns, and perform accordingly.
• Please review the entire Campaign bulletin and follow the repair procedure exactly as described. Approximately 53,014 vehicles are affected. Order No. P-RC-2023070012 2 Replace Fuel Pump Delivery Module Work Procedure The fuel tank may only be filled up to a maximum of 20%.
This corresponds to two lines (A) on the fuel display (Figure 1). Figure 1(shown on model 205) 1. Replace fuel pump.
For basic data, see AR47.20-P-5710*.
* Select the WIS document according to the vehicle model.
No quick test has to be performed. Only for model 167
Contrary to the WIS document (AR88.60-P-2001ME – Remove/install tank filler recess), the
tank filler recess must not be removed. Disconnecting the hose lines at the activated charcoal canister and the sealing bellows on the inside at the tank filler recess is sufficient. P-RC-2023070012 3 Installation: Delivery modules that are delivered without float-and-lever sensor must be modified. (Figure 2-4) Figure 2 (release corresponding connector and disconnect the contacts) Figure 3 (remove lines from routing clip) Figure 4 (using a screwdriver, carefully push float-and-lever
sensor housing away from module housing and at the same time push float-and-lever sensor housing upwards.) 2. Assemble in reverse order. P-RC-2023070012 4 Primary Parts Information If one of the following part numbers (column 1) was determined via the vehicle identification number in the parts process, the delivery module with the item number (column 2) should be ordered and installed!
If, due to the availability of parts, the determined delivery module from column 2 is not available, the part number from column 1 can be ordered.
The difference between the delivery module column 1 (delivery module with float-and-lever sensor) and column 2 (delivery module without float-and-lever sensor) is the delivery condition if supplied with or without float-and-lever sensor.
If a delivery module from column 2 is delivered, proceed as per the operation item “12-1759”.
If the required parts number determined in the XENTRY parts process is not listed in column 1, this must be ordered in accordance with the XENTRY parts process. Column 1

Description of the Defect : Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain Model Year (“MY”) 2021-2023 GLE/GLS (167 platform), C-Class (205, 206 platform), E-Class (213 platform), S-Class (223 platform), SL (232 platform), E-Class Coupe/Convertible (238 platform), GLC (253 platform), CLS (257 platform), AMG GT 4-doors Coupe (290 platform) and G-Class (463 platform) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regards to material characteristics.
FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : As a consequence, the impeller might deform and therefore come into contact with the fuel pump housing, leading to a mechanical resistance. In some instances, this could lead to a shutdown of the fuel pump. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a deviation in the production process of a sub-supplier, certain fuel pump impellers might not meet the material requirements and thus certain batches of fuel delivery modules might not meet the durability requirements. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice the engine running rough.

Address : 29, Yeongni-gil Yeongin-myeon, Asan-si, Chung Cheong Nam-Do Foreign States The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-445 Page 14 Country : Korea, Democratic People’s Republic of Chronology :
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub- supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process. Please see chronology supplement attached. Description of Remedy :
Description of Remedy Program : An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership will replace the fuel delivery
module on the affected vehicles.
Pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 577.11(e), MBUSA does not plan to provide notice about pre-notice reimbursement to owners since none of the involved vehicles would have been previously subject to the condition described and all remain covered under the new vehicle warranty How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : Fuel pump impellers that meet the material requirements.

Country : Korea, Democratic People’s Republic of Chronology :
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub- supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process.

FMVSS 1 : NR The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-445 Page 11 FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : As a consequence, the impeller might deform and therefore come into contact with the fuel pump housing, leading to a mechanical resistance. In some instances, this could lead to a shutdown of the fuel pump. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a deviation in the production process of a sub-supplier, certain fuel pump impellers might not meet the material requirements and thus certain batches of fuel delivery modules might not meet the durability requirements. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice the engine running rough.

VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Defect :
Description of the Defect : Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain Model Year (“MY”) 2021-2023 GLE/GLS (167 platform), C-Class (205, 206 platform), E-Class (213 platform), S-Class (223 platform), SL (232 platform), E-Class Coupe/Convertible (238 platform), GLC (253 platform), CLS (257 platform), AMG GT 4-doors Coupe (290 platform) and G-Class (463 platform) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regards to material characteristics.
FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : As a consequence, the impeller might deform and therefore come into contact with the fuel pump housing, leading to a mechanical resistance. In some instances, this could lead to a shutdown of the fuel pump. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a deviation in the production process of a sub-supplier, certain fuel pump impellers might not meet the material requirements and thus certain batches of fuel delivery modules might not meet the durability requirements. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice the engine running rough.

Address : 29, Yeongni-gil Yeongin-myeon, Asan-si, Chung Cheong Nam-Do Foreign States
Country : Korea, Democratic People’s Republic of Chronology :
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-445 Page 14 outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub- supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process. Please see chronology supplement attached. Description of Remedy :
Description of Remedy Program : An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership will replace the fuel delivery
module on the affected vehicles.
Pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 577.11(e), MBUSA does not plan to provide notice about pre-notice reimbursement to owners since none of the involved vehicles would have been previously subject to the condition described and all remain covered under the new vehicle warranty How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : Fuel pump impellers that meet the material requirements.

Description of the Defect : Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain Model Year (“MY”) 2021-2023 GLE/GLS (167 platform), C-Class (205, 206 platform), E-Class (213 platform), S-Class (223 platform), SL (232 platform), E-Class Coupe/Convertible (238 platform), GLC (253, 254 platform), CLS (257 platform), AMG GT 4-doors Coupe (290 platform) and G-Class (463 platform) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regards to material characteristics.
FMVSS 1 : NR The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-445 Page 11 FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : As a consequence, the impeller might deform and therefore come into contact with the fuel pump housing, leading to a mechanical resistance. In some instances, this could lead to a shutdown of the fuel pump. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a deviation in the production process of a sub-supplier, certain fuel pump impellers might not meet the material requirements and thus certain batches of fuel delivery modules might not meet the durability requirements. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice the engine running rough.

Address : 29, Yeongni-gil Yeongin-myeon, Asan-si, Chung Cheong Nam-Do Foreign States
Country : Korea, Democratic People’s Republic of Chronology :
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub- supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process.

Description of the Defect : Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain Model Year (“MY”) 2021-2023 GLE/GLS (167 platform), C-Class (205, 206 platform), E-Class (213 platform), S-Class (223 platform), SL (232 platform), E-Class Coupe/Convertible (238 platform), GLC (253 platform), CLS (257 platform), AMG GT 4-doors Coupe (290 platform) and G-Class (463 platform) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regards to material characteristics.
FMVSS 1 : NR The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-445 Page 11 FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : As a consequence, the impeller might deform and therefore come into contact with the fuel pump housing, leading to a mechanical resistance. In some instances, this could lead to a shutdown of the fuel pump. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a deviation in the production process of a sub-supplier, certain fuel pump impellers might not meet the material requirements and thus certain batches of fuel delivery modules might not meet the durability requirements. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice the engine running rough.

Address : 29, Yeongni-gil Yeongin-myeon, Asan-si, Chung Cheong Nam-Do Foreign States
Country : Korea, Democratic People’s Republic of Chronology :
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub- supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process.

Background
Issue
Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain MY 2021-2023 C-Class, E-Class, CLS, S-Class, SL, GT, GLC, GLE, GLS and G-Class (205/206, 213/238, 257, 223, 232, 290, 253, 167 and 463 platforms) vehicles, the fuel pump impeller might not meet current specifications in regard to material characteristics. As a consequence, the impeller might deform and then contact the fuel pump housing and result in mechanical resistance on the impeller. In some instances, this could cause the fuel pump to stop operating. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury. Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice a roughly running engine.
What We’re Doing
MBUSA will conduct a voluntary recall. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will replace the fuel pump delivery module on the affected vehicles. Parts The remedy is available and can be performed.

FMVSS 1 : NR The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-445 Page 11 FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : As a consequence, the impeller might deform and therefore come into contact with the fuel pump housing, leading to a mechanical resistance. In some instances, this could lead to a shutdown of the fuel pump. As a result, the vehicle could lose propulsion, which could increase the risk of crash or injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a deviation in the production process of a sub-supplier, certain fuel pump impellers might not meet the material requirements and thus certain batches of fuel delivery modules might not meet the durability requirements. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : Before the fuel pump is switched off, the driver may be made aware of a malfunction by a warning message in the instrument cluster and might notice the engine running rough.

Address : 29, Yeongni-gil Yeongin-myeon, Asan-si, Chung Cheong Nam-Do Foreign States
Country : Korea, Democratic People’s Republic of Chronology :
In the beginning of June 2022, MBAG launched initial investigations based on individual field reports from outside the US alleging inconsistent power delivery. MBAG hypothesized that, the function of the fuel pump might have been impaired without having any initial indications in regards to common influencing factors on the field cases in this relation. In July 2022, MBAG began retrieving fuel pumps from affected vehicles in the field and analyzing them in coordination with the supplier. Over the next several months, MBAG conducted analyses of the material together with the supplier, as well as the production processes at the supplier and its sub-suppliers. Through the end of the year, MBAG conducted numerous and varied tests in coordination with its tier one supplier, including fuel swelling behavior, structural damage and notched impact resistance tests. In December 2022, these intensive analyses and tests identified an irregularity in individual raw material batches used for the suspect fuel pump impellers, sourced from a sub-supplier. Based on that determination, in January 2023, MBAG’s supplier of the suspect fuel pump started investigations to identify the potentially affected vehicle population by tracking the material flow within the multi-supplier chain from the raw material sub- supplier up to the fuel pump manufacturer. At the same time, the fuel pump supplier implemented several changes in its production process, including a replacement of the raw material supplier, changing the injection molding process at the injection molding supplier and implementing more quality controls within the supplier chain. Through May 2023, MBAG and its fuel pump supplier conducted further testing and analyses to identify potential influencing factors and determine potential consequences of material and process anomalies at different steps of the production process.
