Reported Dec 18, 201764 vehicles affectedMercedes-Benz USA, LLC.Maker’s number 2018010010Built Jun 28, 2016 – Sep 14, 2016

The defect

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Mercedes GLE 550e 4MATIC vehicles. The tire pressure label on the B-pillar lists incorrect seating capacity and front and rear tire dimension information. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FVMSS) number 101, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The risk

Applying incorrectly sized tires to the vehicle will affect the speedometer reading, which can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tire pressure label, replacing it, as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in January 2018. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-877-496-3691.
