- Component:
- Air bags
- Manufactured:
- 03/31/2013 - 11/07/2016
- Affected:

- Defect:
- Daimler vans usa, llc (dvusa) is recalling certain 2013-2016 mercedes-benz sprinter 2500 and 3500 and freightliner sprinter 2500 and 3500 vans. these vehicles were manufactured without a reinforcement plate and protective bracket on the air bag control unit. as a result, the air bag control unit may not remain functional after the initial impact, possibly preventing additional air bags from deploying in response to a secondary impact.
- Consequence:
- If additional air bags do not deploy as intended, the occupants are at an increased risk of injury.
- Correction:
- Dvusa will notify owners, and dealers will install a reinforcement plate and protective bracket around the air bag control unit, free of charge. the recall began on may 26, 2017. owners may contact dvusa customer service at 1-877-762-8267.
