Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words
I noticed that my front tires were showing abnormal wear on the outer edge of both driver and passenger side front tires. I would also hear a loud popping/thumping/grinding noise coming from front tires when I would back up and then have to turn my tires to move the car to leave a parking spot, etc. The tire pressure warning light will come on and off randomly. I have checked my tire pressure and it falls directly in line with recommended pressure listed on the inside door of the car. I made an appointment at Mercedes Sewell and basically was told over the phone that this would not be anything related to a recall and that the extra warranty I purchases for tires would not cover replacement of the front tires. Showed up at my appointment and my service advisor said that he had another client come in today with the same exact situation on the same exact car. He said he thinks that it could be something with the Toe. I bought my vehicle in 2023 and as of today it has only 10, 580 or so miles. I drive locally to pick up my children from school and run errands, never have a seen a tire look like these tires.

ENGINE
Complaint Customer states that the yellow "Coolant" message is populated in the instrument cluster. The following DTC is found stored in the PTCU: P2B2A7A ‑ The speed of the 'Coolant pump' component part is too high. A leak or defective seal was detected Notes on fault code:The fault code concerns the right rear 15 W pump on the side of the transmission (M43/6, Figure 1, position C). The fault code concerning the speed that is too high is set because of air in the system (emergency dry run function) IMPORTANT: For model year 2024 and newer vehicles pump PN's A0005009100 and A0005008900 are the correct pumps Cause Air in the low‑temperature coolant circuit Remedy PLEASE READ ALL THE BELOW STEPS AND FOLLOW THEM IN ORDER. Step 1: With the engine cold, use XENTRY Diagnosis to activate the two pumps at the passenger front. As they are running, remove the cap from the low temp cooling circuit reservoir and observe the coolant. • If it overflows the reservoir, or blows out upon removal of the cap there is a restriction somewhere in the coolant lines. • This can take the form of a physical restriction inside of one of the lines or pumps or a damaged or kinked hardline or rubber hose. • Activate each pump in succession and listen to it using a stethoscope or by placing an ear to a screwdriver or other implement placed on the pump • Compare the sound and feel of each pump. An improperly functioning, bled, or faulty pump will make a very distinct churning noise. The pumps should be near silent and should not vibrate or heat up. • If you find a pump that is making more noise than the others it is most likely pulling in air from somewhere or is encountering a restriction (refer to the first point in this section) • If nothing of note is found, proceed to step 2. Step 2: Disassemble underfloor paneling and wheel well interior trim at front right to gain access to the two low temperature pumps. Take note of or photograph the part number of the pump holder, along with the production date. Step 3: For model year 2020‑2023 only, check the installation position of the pumps at the front right of the low‑temperature circuit (Fig. 1). Below are the correct specified part numbers at each location for these model years: • Outer: A 000 500 5500 (Fig. 1, position A) • Inner: A 000 500 3800 (Fig. 1; position B) • If installation position is NOK, continue to step 4 • If installation position is OK, skip to step 7 Step 4: Photograph the pump part numbers at the front right so that the QR‑code/DMC code and the part number are visible and legible save the pictures and label them appropriately if a TIPS case is required in the future. Step 5: For model year 2020‑2023 only, replace the affected pump(s) if the installed part number differs from the specified part number (see specified part number in step 3). Step 6: Use a vacuum bleeder to fill the cooling system of the low‑temperature circuit. Step 7: Vent the cooling system of the low‑temperature circuit using XENTRY. • NOTE: The cooling system of the low‑temperature circuit is vented in various stages. To start with, the pumps at front right are actuated at approx. 30%, then 50% and finally at 100%. At 100% actuation, the valve of the coolant circulating the pump at the side of the transmission is opened (Fig. 1; position C). Please ALWAYS observe the following points during the venting procedure: • The front right pumps always run simultaneously. These pumps must NEVER be operated separately of each other for actuation or for test purposes. Please ALWAYS observe the following points during the venting procedure: • The front right pumps always run simultaneously. These pumps must NEVER be operated separately of each other for actuation or for test purposes. • The pump at the rear of the transmission must run permanently after being actuated. If the pump only briefly starts‑up and then stops again, it is in a so called emergency dry run mode because there is too much air in the
SERVICE BRAKES
Complaint Repeat workshop visit for vehicle vibration while braking from 60MPH. NOTE: Although the symptom is similar to a tire or wheel vibration, it is usually readily noticeable that it is distinctly different if it happens at all times or only while braking. Cause Although the cause of the vibration is most likely due to excessive lateral runout on the rotor or hub/wheel bearing, the system as a whole needs to be checked for other possible contributors. 1. Prior collision damage. 2. Excessive vehicle sitting times without rotating components. 3. Wheel bearing/hub lateral runout. 4. Wheel mating interface has been overtightened (did not follow WIS torque procedures). 5. Mating interfaces have been excessively modified (painted, gouged, bent, etc...). Remedy Read through the entire attached worksheet prior to performing. After performing, please review the final page and perform work accordingly. NOTE: This document is not pre‑authorization or otherwise dealing with warranty. This is intended for diagnostic purposes only. If there are any questions on how to proceed OR The work sheet has been performed and the vehicle has returned with the same concern. Please perform the measurements as seen in the worksheet again and open a TIPS case to the Body, Chassis, and Entertainment team.
STRUCTURE:BODY
Complaint Clanking noise from the area of the speakers in the doors. Cause Under analysis. Remedy To narrow down the cause, first of all remove the door trim. • If the noise continues to occur even with the door trim removed, then continue the diagnosis working towards the speaker and if necessary, create a TIPS case with an informative video as an attachment. Note: Please refer to this document in the warranty claim and, once diagnosis is completed, select the damage code depending on the component part that is causing the issue. • If the noise stops when the door trim is removed, please proceed in accordance with LI72.10‑P‑067691. Information: In this case, do not use a damage code for the speakers in the warranty claim!

POWER TRAIN
Complaint This document is intended as a pre-case diagnostic reference for transmission related concerns. It will also ensure that if a case is necessary, all supporting documentation is available. This should not be used on its own as justification for creating a TIPS case. Cause The root cause will vary depending on the complaint. The goal of this document is to provide diagnostic checks and procedures that may help resolve customer complaints without opening a TIPS case. Remedy Before opening a transmission-related TIPS case, the following steps must be performed to ensure all relevant data has been collected and possible remedies (when applicable) have been performed. Please Note: At minimum, the documents below must be collected before proceeding to ensure the data in its original state when the vehicle arrived is captured. - Initial Quick Test w/ Freeze frame data - VGS Control Unit Log - Initial EEPROM data (.txt format) - IPR Result (if applicable. See LI27.00-P-073124 - Transmission diagnosis using the Intelligent Predictive Repair (IPR) tool) - Transmission Heath Page If the vehicle has previously been repaired for the same concern, note the date, mileage, and TIPS case or RO number, along with a brief description of the prior work performed. IPR Guidance: The IPR recommended repair should be completed prior to following any steps in this LI and prior to case creation. IPR repairs do not require additional warranty approvals or a TIPS case to validate/confirm the results. To ensure efficient case handling, please avoid opening TIPS cases for this reason. For further information regarding IPR please see the following documents: LI27.00-P-073124 - Transmission diagnosis using the Intelligent Predictive Repair (IPR) tool Oil Pan Condition Evaluation: In some situations, IPR will advise checking the oil pan condition and determining a repair based on the evaluation. Example photos in Xentry can be found in two ways: • Use the blue hyperlink in the IPR result, and it will take you to the Condition check of transmission oil • Navigate to Xentry Bluebook > Help for control unit > Condition check of transmission oil If a different repair that what is recommended by IPR is performed, attaching photo documentation of the complaint vehicle oil pan and the IPR example to the claim is required. Reproducing the Concern: Proper evaluation of transmission concerns generally requires the condition to be reproducible. It is recommended to compare the vehicle to a similar model, if available, to help determine whether the shift behavior is characteristic of the drivetrain or uncharacteristic for the vehicle. If the concern cannot be duplicated: • A test drive with the customer may assist in understanding and reproducing the complaint. • The vehicle shift quality should be compared to a known-good vehicle with identical drivetrain and model year. • Check Shift Quality History (VGS Control Unit > Adaptations > Shift Quality History) Shift Quality History will show the last 5 noticeable harsh shifts and some of the parameters in which it occurred. You can use this to attempt recreation of the operating conditions and increase likelihood of reproducing the complaint. Complaint A: Shift Quality Note: Certain AMG variants may exhibit more firm and noticeable shift behavior as a normal characteristic. Refer to LI27.60‑P‑075147 for additional information. 1. Perform Valve flushing procedure 2. Perform 5 Torque Converter adaptions in a row - Allow the vehicle to warm up naturally, DO NOT power brake as it will increase the temperature in the torque converter. - After the 5th adaptation, collect a screen shot showing all 5 on one page 3. Perform a standstill adaption - collect a screen shot Recheck vehicle operation. If the concern has not improved, driving adaptations should be performed to target specific gear shifts.
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Complaint • Fuel filler flap protrudes from side wall • Fuel filler flap not opening Cause Under analysis Remedy Create TIPS case with the below information and send to the Body/Chassis/Entertainment Inbox: Open the flap and take a detailed photo of the fuel tank strap attached at the hinge arm. Is the attachment bent or kinked? Are there pressure marks in the recess where the retaining strap is located when closed? Check position of the fuel tank strap in the closed state - is it being pinched? Check if the clipping is correct to see if the attachment surfaces are damaged. Removal of the recess to check the seal whether it is folded down. Detach the fuel tank strap from the fuel filler neck at the hinge arm and place it in the recess, then close the flap again and check the protrusion. Is the protrusion better? Does the flap open with less force?
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
