1 recall covering model years 2019. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
On certain Mercedes-Benz E 400 4MATIC, E 450 4MATIC, E 450 4MATIC Coupe, and S 560 4MATIC vehicles, a universal joint in the drive shaft may break. If this joint breaks, the vehicle can suddenly lose the power that turns the wheels while it is being driven, meaning the car stops being able to move under its own power at that moment.
