Reported Apr 11, 201715 vehicles affectedMercedes-Benz USA, LLC.Built Jun 29, 2016 – Apr 29, 2016

The defect

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2017 E300 and E300 4MATIC vehicles. The software for the widescreen instrument cluster may cause the instrument cluster to not display anything on vehicle on startup, or the display may reset while driving. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Control and Displays."

The risk

Without the instrument cluster displaying important information such as the vehicle's speed, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

The remedy

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will update the instrument cluster display software, free of charge. The recall began late May 2017. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
