Issue
On certain E-Class Wagons, the load levelling rear suspension could malfunction. This could trigger a continuous attempt to increase the pressure in the air bellows, which can lead to uncomfortable and stiff suspension characteristics. Ultimately, this could cause a loss of air pressure in the bellows, which could result in poor vehicle handling characteristics, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the level control system connecting rod with an updated version.
