What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationMercedes-Benz AG, the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain subject vehicles, the engine control software might not meet current specifications. As a result, the diagnosis routine for monitoring the air-fuel ratio might not be activated as intended and a malfunction in the oxygen sensor could be erroneously detected causing the “check engine� Malfunction Indicator Lamp (‘MIL’) to illuminate. MBUSA will conduct a voluntary emissions recall. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will update the engine control unit software.
