Issue

Issue:
Under certain conditions, a software problem for the electronic stability control (ESP) control unit could cause the power brake assist not to work properly. As a result, there may be an increase in brake pedal effort and reduced braking.
Note: This recall only affects plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models.

Safety Risk:
Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the ESP control unit software.
