Issue
Issue:
On certain vehicles, a faulty part could cause one of the mounts for rear axle carrier to detach. If this happens, the driver may notice a loud knocking sound from the rear of the vehicle. If the vehicle continues to be driven with this problem, over time the remaining mounting bolts may fail. This could cause the rear axle carrier to separate from the vehicle.
Safety Risk:
A rear axle carrier separation could affect vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the mount for the rear axle carrier. If the left-front bolt connection is damaged, the vehicle will be bought back.
