2018 MERCEDES-BENZ S 450 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz S 450 has two recalls, the more serious being a loose electrical connection inside the trunk's pre-fuse box that increases electrical resistance and can cause a fire. The second recall involves the front brake components, where certain vehicles were built with brake discs, calipers, and pads that do not match the specifications for the vehicle. The concern is not immediate brake failure, but that when a shop performs future brake work, the incorrect dimensions on the existing parts can lead to the wrong replacement parts being fitted, which can reduce braking performance and raise the risk of a crash.
