Home › Cars & vehicles › Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC — Incorrect Fuel Line…
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the fuel feed line has the incorrect flare fitting, the connection between the fuel hose and the fuel feed line might develop a leak or may completely disconnect. Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire and if the fuel feed line disconnects, the vehicle would stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Fire or burn risk.
