According to the Associated Press (AP), Mercedes said it is asking owners of the vehicles to visit dealers for a precautionary check of the ‘Sensotronic Brake Control’ system.
The company reportedly said it was aware of a “very small number” of complaints, but that braking was assured by the system’s additional hydraulic function.
The recall applies to E-class Limousines built after March 2002, T model cars built after March 2003 and SL-class vehicles made after October 2001, Mercedes said, according to AP.
Spokesman Norbert Giesen told the news agency the recall affects about 680,000 vehicles worldwide, including 225,000 in Germany.
