Affects Mercedes-Benz E Class · 2017 — about 97 vehicles.
The hazard
Certain vehicles may have been equipped with an underbody panel which might not provide sufficient clearance to the left catalyst. As a result, heat from the catalyst could melt and potentially ignite the plastic underbody panel, resulting in a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, replace the underbody paneling.
