The high-voltage battery may not meet specifications. If a cell module is not screwed tight enough, the connection could be loosened by vibrations while in motion. The electrical resistance of the connection could increase and the temperature could rise in this area, creating a risk of fire. Production: 26.05.2021- 12.07.2021. Types: 204 X; e1*2001/116*0480*41.
Mercedes-Benz AG has found that, in certain EQC (BR 293) vehicles, the wiring harness for the electric steering may have been damaged during the assembly process. This could lead to an ingress of water into the wiring harness and thus, over time, into the steering control unit. As a result, the power steering could fail spontaneously, even during driving, increasing the risk of an accident. Production: 22.2.2019 to 17.12.2020. Types: e1*2001/116*0480*31 - 42, Type: 204X.
The electrical connector of the side-impact sensors might not be correctly latched and could become detached. This would lead to delayed activation of the restraint systems in the event of a side impact, reducing their restraining effect and increasing the risk of injury to the vehicle occupants. Production: 31.7.2020 - 11.11.2020. Types: Types: 212, 221, 204 X, R1ECLS, R1EAMG, 463 A; e1*2001/116*0501*47, e1*2001/116*0335*46, e1*2001/116*0480*36-*41, e1*2007/46*1818*10-*11, e1*2007/46*1878*10-*11, e1*2001/116*0480*39, e1*2007/46*1830*06-*07.
The wiring harness for the steering control device may have been damaged during the production process and can allow moisture to ingress into the control unit. This may lead to the loss of electric steering support, increasing the risk of accident. Moreover, a short circuit of the damaged wiring harness can occur, leading to increased risk of fire. Production: The affected vehicles were manufactured between 11 December 2019 and 18 May 2020.. Types: Type-approval numbers: e1*2001/116*0431*55-58, e1*2001/116*0457*46-49, e1*2001/116*0480*35-36; Types: 204, 204 K, 204 X.
The left-hand side, rear seat-back lock does not comply with the specifications. This could lead to a failure of the seat-back locking system in the event of an accident, increasing the risk of injury. Production: The affected vehicles were manufactured between 24 January and 25 May 2020.. Types: Type-approval numbers: e1*2001/116*0457*47-*49, e1*2007/46*1560*18-*19, e1*2001/116*0480*36-*37, e1*2007/46*1878*08-*09; Types: 204 K, R1ES, 204 X, R1EAMG.
