Mercedes-Benz Sprinter: Lights and Instruments

The hazard

Issue: On certain vehicles, the driver may not be able to dim the lights on the instrument panel to a low level. As a result, light from the instrument panel could cause glare while driving at night. Canadian regulations require that the instrument panel lights can be dimmed to a lower level. Safety Risk: Glare from bright instrument panel lights could reduce visibility and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to update the vehicle software.
