Engine

Transport Canada recall 2011147

1 April 2011

Transport Canada lists: ML 2000–2004

What is wrong

On certain 2000-2004 ML55 AMG and 2000-2002 ML-Class vehicles, the cruise control may fail to disengage if the plunger within the brake lamp switch become immovable. The driver would, however, be able to disengage the cruise control by other means such as; pushing the cruise control stalk towards the instrument cluster, or by applying adequate amount of brake pedal force to achieve a specified deceleration rate. Failure or delay in disengaging the cruise control can increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the brake lamp switch.

Transport Canada recall 2008362

2 October 2008

Transport Canada lists: ML 1998–2004

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the hose clamp used to secure the power steering fluid cooling hose to the power steering cooler may not provide sufficient clamping force for this connection. The loss of power steering fluid may result in diminished power steering over time and may ultimately damage the power steering pump.

What the dealer will do

Dealer will replace the power steering cooler hose and clamp.
