2023 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE 450 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 has two recalls, both carrying equal severity: one where incorrect screws on the high-pressure fuel pump can allow fuel and oil to leak onto the road, and one where the transmission can fail to downshift properly and stall the engine. The fuel and oil leak creates a slipping hazard for other drivers and raises the risk of a collision. The transmission issue occurs under certain driving conditions where the gearbox does not complete a downshift, cutting engine power unexpectedly. Both situations can increase crash risk, and neither involves a minor or cosmetic concern.
