2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE 350: Electrical System recall
NHTSA campaign 22V098000 · 6 units potentially affected · filed Feb 18, 2022
What's wrong
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2020 GLE 350 vehicles. The wiring harness connected to the prefuse box in the engine compartment might not be properly secured, which could deactivate fused components, such as power steering assist, headlights, and wipers.
Why it matters
Driving with inoperable power steering assist, headlights, or wipers can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the prefuse box, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 8, 2022. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
