1995 MERCEDES-BENZ S CLASS Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1995 Mercedes-Benz S Class has two recalls, both affecting the brake system in ways that can increase stopping distances. On the steering side, turning the front wheels to full lock can bring the wheel into contact with the brake hose, damaging it and causing front brake fluid to leak out, which reduces braking force. The second issue involves metal particles that may be lodged in the anti-lock brake speed sensor mounting holes near the rear wheels. These particles can migrate onto the sensor or rotor and trick the system into thinking a wheel is locking up, triggering the anti-lock brakes prematurely during normal stops and extending the distance needed to come to a halt.
