German carmaker Mercedes-Benz is recalling nearly one million vehicles due to a potential brake system problem. This was announced by the Federal Transport Authority (KBA). These are models dating back to the years from 2004 to 2015 of the ML and GL SUV series, as well as the R-Class luxury minivan, according to a statement by the KBA dated 1 June and published in the press at this time.
“Corrosion of the brake booster can, in the worst case, cause the connection between the brake pedal and the brake system to break,” stressed the KBA. “In this case the service brake can stop working,” he added. According to KBA, 993,407 vehicles have been recalled worldwide, including 70,000 in Germany.
