Verify before you act. Recall details and remedies can change. Our database is updated regularly but may not reflect the most recent revisions. Always confirm with vehiclerecalls.gov.au or your vehicle manufacturer before acting on the information below. Read our full disclaimer.

The defect

Due to a hardware component connectivity issue, the Hermes Control Unit (ECE) may not operate as intended. In this case, the communication module might not be able to establish a network connection. If this occurs, the emergency call system (eCall) communication would not be available.

The hazard

If the eCall system is not available, in the event of an emergency it would not be possible for the vehicle occupants to connect with emergency services, either manually or automatically. As a consequence, emergency vehicles may not be directed to the affected vehicle or may be delayed. This could increase the risk of death if a serious injury has occurred.

The remedy

Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by Mercedes-Benz in writing and are asked to schedule an appointment with their authorised Mercedes-Benz dealership to have the work carried out as soon as possible, free of charge.
