Mercedes-Benz Front Axle Recall

If you own a Mercedes Benz involved in this recall, it’s wise to get it taken care of. The front axle carrier may wear out quicker than expected, which can cause a fracture and loss of steering. This recall is a safety risk and could result in a crash. No accidents have been reported due to the axle components rusting and giving out.

What Should I Do to Repair the Defective Axle?

Owners with vehicles affected by this recall should have received a letter serving as notification about the defect. If you still have not received a letter or instructions on what to do next, you are advised to bring your car or SUV to your local Mercedes Benz dealership. Once there, your vehicle will be inspected and repaired. If you still have questions, contact Mercedes Benz at 1-800-367-6372 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
