ECO recall... (NHTSA Recall Number: 17V506)

Got a recall today on the ECO doing funny things.

A while back, I posted this on my experiences with ECO and what I thought at the time was Hill Assist.

https://mbworld.org/forums/gle43-cou...ll-assist.html

After talking it thru on that post, I don't think that "hill assist" was ever engaged. The vehicle just came to stop WITHOUT the use of the brakes (going up a slight incline), and then ECO kicked in, and the truck rolled backwards.

Not for sure if this recall covers this behavior or not, but it sure sounds like it might...

Can you please go to the link below, enter your VIN and then copy and paste all of the recall info? I just got back from my dealer. I had the engine unit software recall performed. I want to make sure my vehicle isn't affected by this as well. Thanks!

That doesn't copy / paste very well, or at all.

This is the only recall number active on my vehicle:

17V506

Yeah, that's the same recall I posted in another thread on this same forum. I just had that fixed today.
