2020 MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER (VS30) Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (VS30) has 4 recalls, the most serious involving swivel seat wiring that can become pinched in the seat frame, causing the side airbag to fire unexpectedly or fail to deploy in a crash. On the steering and braking side, the hydraulic power steering return line hose can detach and leak fluid, causing sudden loss of power assist and making the van harder to control. There is also a braking concern where front brake discs of the wrong size can extend stopping distances. The electrical system carries its own risk: the HVAC blower motor circuit can allow the wiring harness to overheat, raising the risk of a fire inside the vehicle.
