Identifying features

VIN (Vehicle identification number)

What are the defects?

Due to a software issue, the rear turning indicators, brakes and hazard lights may not operate as intended. The driver will receive warning signals in the instrument cluster.

What are the hazards?

If the rear lighting system of the vehicle is not operating as intended, other road users would be unable to identify if the vehicle is turning, braking or reversing. This could increase the risk of an accident causing serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and/or other road users.

What should consumers do?

Owners of affected vehicles can contact their nearest authorised Mercedes-Benz dealership to have the work carried out as soon as possible free of charge.

Consumers may use the Mercedes-Benz online booking service, by visiting www.mercedes-benz.com.au/servicebooking.
