Issue
Issue:
Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause too much fuel to be injected into the engine. As a result, the exhaust system could overheat and cause the engine wiring harness to melt. If this happens, there could be a sudden loss of power to the wheels.
Safety Risk:
A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, wiring that melts could create the risk of a fire.
Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the engine control unit software.
