Mercedes Benz Recall Fuel Pump
Mercedes-Benz is recalling over 143,551 cars and SUVs due to a faulty fuel pump in certain 2021 through 2023 model years.
Owners of these vehicles report that prior to the stall, the engine runs rough and there were warning lights on the dashboard. They reported the issue to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration out of concern they would crash.
Among the vehicles affected by the fuel pump recall were manufactured between June 1, 2021, and Nov. 30, 2022. The specific vehicles are in the C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, SL coupes, as well as CLS, and GT sedans, AutoEvolution reports. The SUVs affected are the GLC, GLE, GLS, and G-Class.
The root of the problem comes from a faulty fuel pump identified by the manufacturer. There was a component made from faulty materials inside the fuel pump. The automaker is directing Mercedes-Benz dealerships to replace the fuel pump at no charge to the consumer for vehicles covered by the recall.
To date, the NHTSA says Mercedes-Benz is aware of 2,031 warranty claims and or customer complaints about the problem. No injuries from collisions.
