2021 MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER 4500 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4500 has 4 recalls, the most serious involving a front suspension torsion bar that can fail at its connection point, causing the driver to lose vehicle stability and raising the risk of a crash. On vehicles equipped with swivel seats, wiring harnesses routed through the seat frames can become pinched and damaged, preventing the seat-mounted side airbag from deploying correctly in a crash. The rearview camera can fail to display an image due to a software error, reducing the driver's visibility when backing up. There is also a communication system issue: a software fault in the SIM card can cut off the vehicle's mobile connection and disable the automatic emergency call system, meaning the vehicle cannot reach emergency services on its own after a crash.
