What is being recalled
Daimler Vans USA, LLC (DVUSA) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Mercedes-Benz Metris vehicles. A defective memory chip in the rearview camera may cause the display image to freeze.
Why it is dangerous
A frozen rearview image does not show the live view of what is currently behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Dealers will replace the rearview camera, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 10, 2023. Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1-877-762-8267. DVUSA's number for this recall is VS2RU54KAM.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 22V-099 when calling a dealer.
