Mercedes-Benz is recalling 75,159 E-Class, CLS and AMG GT vehicles manufactured between 2021 and 2023 to authorised workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is that the 48V grounding point in the engine compartment may become loose if it is not fastened in accordance with the specification and this may result in a fire hazard.
In an authorised workshop, the screw connection of the grounding point is checked and fixed if necessary.
The KBA monitors the recall under the reference number “013578“. The internal manufacturer code is “5491318“.
