Affects Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 · 2017 — about 205 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles equipped with Crosswind Assist, the Crosswind Assist function is not correctly programmed, and therefore is inoperable. In the event of strong, gusty crosswinds, the automatic brake interventions by the vehicle's Adaptive Electronic Stability Program (ESP) might not be activated, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the software of the ESP control unit.
