2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has two recalls, the more serious being a wiring harness that can rub against the transmission carrier and short circuit, creating a fire risk.

A cable duct beneath the starter-generator may not be properly secured, allowing the wiring to contact the transmission and arc. The second recall involves the tire and loading information label, which may list the wrong maximum combined weight for occupants and cargo. If an owner relies on that figure to load the vehicle, the tires can be overloaded without the driver knowing it, leading to accelerated wear, tire failure, and potential loss of control.
