On certain vehicles, the gross axle weight ratings (GAWR) are higher than the allowable maximum load for the tires. As a result, the tires could be overloaded. Driving a vehicle with tires that are overloaded could cause poor handling and/or a tire failure.
Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.
