On certain vehicles, a software problem for the electronic stability control system (ESP) could cause the antilock brake system (ABS), acceleration slip regulation (ASR) and electronic brake force distribution (EBD) to malfunction. Also, the speedometer could display 0 km/h while the vehicle is moving.
An electronic stability control system that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, driving a vehicle without a speedometer could increase the risk of a crash.
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.
