What is this? Mercedes-Benz found a problem with some V-Class and Vito vans. A part that holds the brake caliper may not be strong enough.
What's happening? This weak part could make the brakes work poorly. That raises the chance of a crash.
Does this affect me? Owners in Germany, Denmark, and other listed countries should check if their van is affected.
What should I do? Take your van to a Mercedes-Benz dealer right away. Ask your dealer or a mechanic about the fix.
