- Severe corrosion may lead to a leakage of the brake booster, thus reducing the braking force, leading to an increase in brake pedal force required to decelerate the vehicle, resulting in a possible increase in stopping distance. Moreover, due to severe corrosion, a particularly strong or severe braking manoeuvre may cause mechanical damage to the brake booster, preventing the vehicle from decelerating through the service brake and thus increasing the risk of an accident.

What is this? This is a safety notice about some Mercedes-Benz cars. The problem is with the brake booster. It may rust badly and leak.
What's happening? The rust can make the brakes weak. You may need to push the brake pedal harder to stop. In a hard stop, the booster could break and the car might not slow down.
Does this affect me? This affects certain Mercedes-Benz GL, ML, and R-Class cars in many European countries.
What should I do? Take your car to a Mercedes dealer right away. Ask your dealer to check and fix the brake booster.
