- 2021 Mercedes-Benz S450 recalled
- The issue can cause the SOS call system to malfunction
- A total of 257 vehicles are included in the recall
Mercedes-Benz Australia has recalled a total of 257 examples of the 2021 S450 due to a potential issue with the car’s SOS call system.
According to a recall notice published by the Department of Infrastructure, a software issue means the system – which is designed to allow occupants to contact emergency services either automatically or manually – may not allow a connection.
In certain circumstances it could mean police, fire, or ambulance services may be delayed in the event of an accident – without the car’s occupants being aware.
Mercedes-Benz will contact affected owners, but the company can be contacted directly by calling 1300 300 896 or visiting a dealership, found here.
