Update Engine Control Module Software

This Service Campaign has been initiated because Daimler AG (DAG), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that the Engine Control Module software on the subject models may not correspond to current production specifications. In the event of a faulty fuel tank level sensor, two OBD-relevant diagnostic tests might not be performed and the Check Engine Light might not activate as required. To remedy this condition, an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will update the engine control module software.

Prior to performing this Service Campaign:

Please check VMI to determine if the vehicle is involved in the Campaign and if it has been previously repaired.
Please review the entire Service Campaign bulletin and follow the repair procedure exactly as described.

Approximately 138, 702 vehicles are affected.
