What is this? This is a notice about some Mercedes-Benz C-Class cars. The label inside the fuel-door cap may give the wrong tyre-pressure advice.
What's happening? The wrong pressure number could mean the tyres are not filled correctly. This can make the tyres wear out faster or even burst while driving.
Does this affect me? If you own a C-Class (C 300 e) made in Germany, this could apply to you. It affects cars in Germany, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, and Sweden.
What should I do? Check the label in your fuel-door cap. If it looks wrong, ask a Mercedes dealer or your mechanic to check your tyre pressures.
