NHTSA Recall History
2006:
Hose clamps that secure power-steering fluid cooling hose to fluid cooler may not provide sufficient clamping force; loss of fluid could damage pump and result in diminished power assist.
2006-08:
An incorrect software calibration number (SCN) coding received during a recent workshop visit can affect a number of functions: (1) the fuel gauge readings may be incorrect; (2) a stuck fuel-level sensor may not be displayed in the instrument cluster; (3) the check engine light may illuminate incorrectly; and, (4) the speedometer may be out of tolerance. In the event of a vehicle crash, the electrical fuel pump may not receive a crash signal that is required for the fuel pump to disconnect and prevent future fuel delivery as designed. Dealers will recode the SCN.
2006-2008 M-Class with trailer hitch:
Some of the weld seams connecting the trailer-hitch receiver to the attachment bar used to secure the trailer hitch to the body frame do not meet performance specifications. This may result in the trailer-hitch receiver separating from the attachment bar. The trailer hitch must not be used for any purpose until it has been repaired. Dealers will repair the trailer hitch.
2007 M-Class with diesel engine:
Engine may stall and not restart due to a failed crankshaft sensor. Dealers will replace the crankshaft sensor.
2007:
Accelerator pedal in some vehicles might not have been fully fastened; over time, pedal may not maintain a consistent position, making it more difficult to operate.
