Chronology :
In November 2022, MBAG identified a deviation in production instructions for workers regarding the number of bolts used to install the partition wall in certain Sprinter (907 platform) vehicles.
In December 2022, MBAG initiated a plant check and rework campaign for vehicles that remained in MBAG’s control to ensure that partition walls were secured in accordance with design specifications.
Beginning in early 2023, MBAG reviewed its production process documentation to identify potentially affected vehicle models. These analyses determined that only one specific option code combination of Sprinter vehicles (907 platform) might have been produced using an incorrect number of bolts.
Starting in July 2023, MBAG conducted further reviews and analyses to identify potential consequences of the identified issue.
Between October and November 2023, MBAG reviewed the results of these analyses and determined, that the number of bolts used for the partition walls installed in the vehicles might not be sufficient in the event of a crash because the partition wall might become deformed or dislodged due to forces applied by a carried load in certain crash scenarios.
In November and December 2023, MBAG analyzed production records of Sprinter vehicles with a variety of different configurations to determine the population of potentially affected vehicles.
On December 15, 2023, MBAG determined that a potential safety risk cannot be ruled out and decided to conduct a recall.
MBAG is not aware of any warranty claims, field or service reports, or reports of property damage, fatality, or injury related to this defect in the US.

Country : NR Chronology :
In November 2022, MBAG identified a deviation in production instructions for workers regarding the number of bolts used to install the partition wall in certain Sprinter (907 platform) vehicles.
In December 2022, MBAG initiated a plant check and rework campaign for vehicles that remained in MBAG’s control to ensure that partition walls were secured in accordance with design specifications.
Beginning in early 2023, MBAG reviewed its production process documentation to identify potentially affected vehicle models. These analyses determined that only one specific option code combination of Sprinter vehicles (907 platform) might have been produced using an incorrect number of bolts.
Starting in July 2023, MBAG conducted further reviews and analyses to identify potential consequences of the identified issue.
Between October and November 2023, MBAG reviewed the results of these analyses and determined, that the number of bolts used for the partition walls installed in the vehicles might not be sufficient in the event of a crash because the partition wall might become deformed or dislodged due to forces applied by a carried load in certain crash scenarios.
In November and December 2023, MBAG analyzed production records of Sprinter vehicles with a variety of different configurations to determine the population of potentially affected vehicles.
On December 15, 2023, MBAG determined that a potential safety risk cannot be ruled out and decided to conduct a recall.
MBAG is not aware of any warranty claims, field or service reports, or reports of property damage, fatality, or The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-876
