2019 MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASSTransport Canada Recall #2022547
Defect
On certain vehicles, the 12 V battery (in the trunk) could move in a crash. As a result, the battery electrical connexions could detach. If this happens, the post-crash safety systems (like the emergency calling (eCall) system, electric seat adjustment, hazard warning lights, and automatic door unlocking) may not work.
Safety Risk
Safety systems that don't work correctly could increase the risk of injury.
Remedy
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to add a bracket to better secure the battery.
