What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

TOURIG is recalling one 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vehicle, equipped with a Multiplex G9 unit used for controlling equipment and accessories in the motorhome. Excessive voltage may cause the components on the board to become damaged.

The risk

Damaged components may overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Dealers will install an additional circuit module to the existing component board, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 9, 2022. Owners may contact TOURIG at 1-303-710-2914.

Notes

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.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
