FAULTY CONTROL UNIT MAY CAUSE VEHICLE TO PERFORM OUTSIDE SPECIFICATION
Where a control unit coding was updated in a workshop between 3 December 2016 and 5 December 2016 the coding may not correspond to the specification and may trigger unplanned action in the vehicle. The safety and emissions systems may not react as design intent.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the software in the corresponding control units.
STEERING COLUMN SWITCH MODULE MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE
It has been identified that the lever used to select the drive range on the steering column switch module may become inoperative due to possible damage of a circuit board. In the event of this fault occurs then manual selection of the drive range (D R N P) would no longer be possible. The Auto-P function as well as the automatic parking brake will still be available as intended. During manoeuvring the vehicle may not change the drive range as intended by the driver when operating the selector lever during standstill. This could result in an increased risk of a collision/accident.
Recall all affected vehicles to replace the steering column switch module.
FRONT AIRBAG MAY BE DEACTIVATED
It has been identified that the front passenger seat occupancy weight sensing system control unit may have bee incorrectly installed during assembly. If the passenger seat is placed in the rear/lower position range then it can cause the pressure hose to become kinked which will reclassify the occupant as being a child seat. This will result in the front passenger airbag being deactivated and place the occupant at a higher risk of injury if the vehicle is involved in a frontal collision.
Recall all affected vehicles to inspect the pressure pipe. If found to be kinked then the dealer is to contact MB Technical Department to establish the rectification process.
LOSS OF POWER STEERING SUPPORT
It has been identified that the pins within the electric power assisted steering control unit may not have been contact welded correctly. This can result in an open circuit which will lead to a loss of power steering assistance and possible loss of control of the vehicle.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace electric power assisted steering.

AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY CORRECTLY
During production monitoring Daimler AG became aware that in isolated cases on the E-Class coupe the air of the right windowbag may be able to escape more quickly than intended in the event that this is activated in an accident. In the event of a collision and in extreme cases the strict internal safety requirements of Daimler AG may not be adhered to.
Replace the right windowbag as a precautionary measure.
