SUMMARY:
Daimler Vans USA, LLC (DVUSA) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Mercedes-Benz and Freightliner
Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vehicles manufactured April 1, 2015, to October 31, 2015.
The affected vehicles may have had multiple layers of paint applied, and as a result, in a crash, the windows may separate from the vehicle when the outer layer of paint peels from the layer below.
CONSEQUENCE:
If the windows separate from the vehicle in a crash, the occupants are at a greater risk of injury.
REMEDY:
DVUSA will notify owners, and dealers will remove the windows and inspect the paintwork, repainting the vehicles as necessary, free of charge.
The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1-770-705-2070.
NOTES:
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
