Freightliner / Mercedes-Benz recall: Seats

What is wrong

Daimler Vans USA, LLC (DVUSA) is recalling certain 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Freightliner vehicles. A seam on the height adjuster for the front seats may have been insufficiently welded.

What could happen

In the event of a crash, the weld seam may break and cause the seat cushion to shift forward, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix

DVUSA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the tilt adjuster for the front seats, free of charge. DVUSA issued owners an interim notification on December 19, 2019. The recall began March 9, 2020. Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1-877-762-8267. DVUSA's number for this recall is VS3SITZVER.
