Mercedes-Benz Sprinter: Brakes

Affects Mercedes-Benz Sprinter · 2019–2020 — about 558 vehicles.

The hazard

Issue: On certain vehicles, the brake caliper may leak brake fluid into the electric parking brake over time. As a result, air could enter the hydraulic brake system. If this happens, the driver may experience a change in brake pedal feel and travel. This can cause reduced brake performance. Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with an electric parking brake. Safety Risk: Reduced brake performance could cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.
