Mercedes-Benz Battery Cable Recall

Mercedes-Benz has announced that 4073 vehicles have been affected by a Battery Cable recall.

The cover for the starter battery may not cover the live positive electrical wire, and in certain crashes, the vehicle's strut brace may deform and short circuit the battery.

If the battery is shorted, the emergency door unlocking would be deactivated for an outside responder and the short circuit could increase the risk of a fire.
