Emissions recall notification

I received this notification from MBUSA today regarding an emissions recall related to the OBD fault code memory for the 48V ISG. I have a 2020 450; no list of affected years or models.

I noticed it says CA DMV on the notice. I wonder if your vehicle was originally delivered to CA before being shipped to your current location.

Here's MBUSA Recall Site for reference.

No, I'm guessing the CA DMV is who found the issue and instigated the recall.

I'm going in for the recall next week.

My dealer said they plan for a two-hour download in the shop.

​​​​​​NO 48v issues at all.

Just got this notice. What's odd is I checked on NHTSA and it says there are no open recalls for the VIN. Just had it in three weeks ago for recall 2021060009 software update 48V battery management system. No problems with the vehicle.

Also odd, I received an email from my insurance company a few weeks ago saying it might be recalled because "Certain Mercedes-Benz vehicles may have an incorrectly installed drain hose, increasing the risk of an electrical shortage and vehicle fire." It said notices are expected to be mailed May 16, 2023. Not sure if the insurance company is notifying everyone with certain vehicles or just the ones being recalled. Also not sure if the recall should/would be in the NHTSA database before May 16.

Time to call the dealer.

2021060009 was a "Service Campaign", not an official recall, although it was confusingly reported as a recall on my Service Summary after being completed last week. I have not received the recall notice Greg posted - at least not yet.

Got the same notice today. Heading in for the recall in 3 weeks (that the earliest available) along with the AC drain line recall. (for the AD drain line recall, I feels like this is a "known" issue for a while, and they been slowly expanding the list of car, so it finally got to me)

I checked with the service advisor and he said this is different even though the operation numbers are identical. VIN still shows on NHTSA as having 0 unrepaired recalls. It's 40 minutes each way to the dealer and hassle with a loaner. I hope he's right and we aren't wasting our time.

I had an appointment yesterday to swap out my winter tires and perform the AC Drain hose recall. This 48V ISG wasn't showing up as an open recall for my VIN on an online search, and I haven't received anything in the mail, but I asked my SA when I dropped off my car (thanks to this thread) and he saw it in his system so included it in service. GLE 450 built in October 2019 in case others are curious if they are affected. Picked up the car today and both recalls were completed.

Thanks for sharing the work order, hopefully that solves any remaining issues with the 48V battery.
