2015 MERCEDES-BENZ S550E
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling certain 2015 S550 Hybrid vehicles manufactured between April 24, 2015, and June 12, 2015. These vehicles have a high voltage onboard charger that may not have been built to specification, which can cause the charger to incorrectly detect a charging cable even while the vehicle is being driven. If this happens while the vehicle is stopped or moving at very slow speeds, the vehicle may unexpectedly shift into park, increasing the risk of a crash.
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the onboard charger at no cost. The recall began on January 27, 2016. Affected owners should contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
