The car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz calls many cars into the workshops in the USA because of problems with the fuel pump. According to the US road safety agency NHTSA, up to 143,551 cars from model years 2021 to 2023 are affected, as the supervisory authority announced on Friday in Washington.
The vehicles include models of the C, E and S class as well as the SUV types GLC, GLE and GLS. G-Class off-road vehicles are also listed.
Dealers replaced the fuel pump for free, NHTSA said. A failure of the drive due to a malfunction of the pump could increase the risk of an accident.
