Because the risk of fire cannot be ruled out, Mercedes-Benz has to recall a quarter of a million cars worldwide. Many German customers are also affected. Owners of the relevant models should visit a workshop.
Mercedes-Benz has recalled around 250,000 vehicles worldwide. A spokesman for the car manufacturer confirmed the recall published in the recall database of the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA). According to KBA, the AMG GT, C-Class, CLE, E-Class, EQE, EQS, GLC, S-Class and SL models from 2023 are affected.
More than 37,000 vehicles are probably affected in Germany. According to the spokesman, certain fuses may not meet the requirements. According to KBA, this can cause the engine to fail, among other things. A fire risk cannot be ruled out.
As a precautionary measure, certain parts of the affected vehicles would be replaced, the Mercedes spokesman said. The planned workshop stay will take between two and five and a half hours, depending on the equipment. The work is free for customers.
