TIRES
An overloaded vehicle may cause tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
10 safety recall campaigns, 38 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
An overloaded vehicle may cause tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
A frozen rearview image does not show the live view of what is currently behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
A detached brake fluid reservoir can leak brake fluid, increasing the risk of a crash.
Failure of the eCall system may result in emergency responders being dispatched to the wrong location, increasing the risk of injury following a crash.
If conductive material, such as metal, unintentionally drops into the opening and contacts the terminals on the battery, an electrical short can occur, increasing the risk of a fire.
Two 2018 MERCEDES BENZ METRISs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
