On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the cross-traffic alert system not to work. As a result, the system may not brake automatically if a road user is detected while the vehicle is backing out of a parking space.
Safety Risk
A cross-traffic alert system that doesn't work could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update to the MBUX multimedia system and reset the parking control unit settings.
