SUMMARY:
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain model year 2014 E350 and E350 4Matic sedans manufactured June 4, 2014, to July 9, 2014.
The affected vehicles were built with a fuel feed line that has a single flare fitting instead of a double flare fitting.
CONSEQUENCE:
If the fuel feed line has the incorrect flare fitting, the connection between the fuel hose and the fuel feed line might develop a leak or may completely disconnect.
Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire and if the fuel feed line disconnects, the vehicle would stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
REMEDY:
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will install the correct fuel line, free of charge.
This recall began on January 11, 2016.
Owners may contact Mercedes-Benz customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
NOTES:
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
