What is being recalled

Daimler Vans USA, LLC (DVUSA) is recalling certain 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vehicles equipped with electrically adjustable front swivel-seats. The wiring harnesses for the swivel-seats may have been incorrectly installed and may become damaged, which can cause the front side air bags not to deploy as intended.

Why it is dangerous

An air bag that does not deploy as intended increases the risk of injury in a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Dealers will inspect and reattach the wiring harnesses, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 17, 2023. Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1-877-762-8267. DVUSA's number for this recall is 5491810.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 23V-101 when calling a dealer.
