Η Mercedes-Benz ανακοίνωσε την ανάκληση 33.180 C-Class και CLS στις Η.Π.Α για προβλήματα που εντοπίζονται στο ρεζερβουάρ καυσίμου και στα πίσω φωτιστικά σώματα. Η μεγαλύτερη ανάκληση αφορά 30.141 MY2015 CLS400, MY2015 CLS400 4Matic, MY2012-2015 CLS550, MY2012-2015CLS550 4Matic, MY2012-2014 CLS63 AMG και 2014-2015 CLS63P AMG, στα οποία τα πίσω φωτιστικά σώματα δεν φωτίζουν επαρκώς για να καλύψουν τα πρότυπα ασφαλείας των Η.Π.Α. Το πρόβλημα θα λυθεί με ενημέρωση του λογισμικού του αυτοκινήτου.
Η δεύτερη ανάκληση αφορά 3.039 C300 4MATIC ΜΥ2015 και ΜΥ2015 C400 4Matic στα οποία ενδεχομένως να υπάρχουν δύο προβλήματα στη μονάδα παροχής καυσίμου του ρεζερβουάρ. Στο πρώτο πρόβλημα, η τάπα ασφάλισης μπορείς να χαλαρώσει, προκαλώντας διαρροή καυσίμου, ενώ στο δεύτερο, τα ηλεκτρικά καλώδια της μονάδας παροχής καυσίμου, μπορεί να μην έχουν τοποθετηθεί σωστά προκαλώντας πρόβλημα στην αντλία καυσίμου, που υπάρχει περίπτωση να σταματήσει να λειτουργεί.

Details
Manufacturer: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
SUMMARY:
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain model year 2015 C300 4matic and C400 4matic vehicles manufactured April 7, 2014, to July 25, 2014.

If the locking plate is not properly secured to the fuel delivery module it may become loose, and leak fuel, increasing the risk of a fire. If the electrical wires are pinched, the fuel pump may stop working, resulting in a stall, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
REMEDY:
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles for improperly secured locking plates and pinched wires, correcting the vehicles as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA’s number for this recall is 2015030004.
