Mercedes-Benz E Class, CLS Class: Engine

Affects Mercedes-Benz E Class, CLS Class · 2015 — about 9 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, the rubber seal at the top edge of the secondary bulkhead of the engine compartment may have been damaged during manufacturing. Should a sufficient length of rubber seal be displaced from the bulkhead, and the seal were to drop down, it could result in the loose end of the seal contacting exhaust components. This could increase the risk of fire resulting in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the rubber seal in the engine compartment.
