According to an online news report posted on fortune.com, Mercedes-Benz has recalled approximately one million cars due to unsafe brakes. The recall affects Mercedes-Benz vehicles worldwide. Mercedes confirmed its recall to Fortune last Monday.

Mercedes-Benz reported that it identified a brake booster fault on some models that were made many years ago. The braking system recall states that sudden braking in affected Mercedes vehicles could cause mechanical damage leading to an increased risk of accidents. Mercedes-Benz is reaching out to the owners of affected motor vehicles and is beginning the recall process right away.

The recall process involves inspecting the recalled motor vehicles and replacing the parts if necessary. Those who have purchased the affected vehicles are urged not to drive the vehicles until receiving the free brake system inspection.

Mercedes reported that the defect was found in some R-Class minivans, ML and GL-Class SUVs. The recalled vehicles were made between 2004 and 2015. Mercedes did not state if they would replace the vehicles that have the braking fault.

My name is Shantasia and I was recommended to PWL back in may of 2020 an let me tell you this, my experience with PWL was great! Not only did they take good care of my daughter and I but they didn’t give up until we gotten what we deserved. I’d settled a year later and it was definitely worth it. Had also recommended two people to work with them on their cases during the time of my case and I hope everything works out in their favors. In my time working with them I’d spoke with a couple of people there but Josephine was my favorite she really did her thing for us and made us a priority and I really loved that! If you’re looking to get justice for any accidents I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you call Parker Waichman Law. Promise you won’t be disappointed! :)

It has been an amazingly gratifying and enjoyable experience working with PW, and making it that way is my paralegal contact ,Tina. She answers all my questions with patience, knowledge and understanding. Tina returns calls quickly and explains situations and progress clearly and all her answers are with the kind of details I request. Importantly, Tina always contacts me quickly with any status change or requirement for additional information. My case is still in progress and I am comforted to know my interaction with Tina will continue to be enjoyable, informative and interesting.
