Buying a used 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (VS30)? Check these 14 recalls first

14 NHTSA recalls · 4 owner complaints on file · 1 do-not-drive

The 2019 Sprinter (VS30) has 14 recalls. Steering shaft disconnection carries a stop-driving instruction, making its VIN-specific status especially consequential. Blower wiring overheating, brake hose wear, fuel leaks, steering fluid leaks, and chassis or suspension issues also stand out; manuals and labels account for informational corrections. NHTSA lists 4 unverified owner complaints, with 1 each in unknown or other, service brakes, engine, and electrical system. Records include 1 crash, 1 fire, and 0 injuries.

Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Confirm steering-shaft recall completion before any driving.
  3. Request blower-wiring, brake-hose, and fuel-pump repair records.
  4. Verify chassis stabilization, spring-shim, and steering-hose campaign status.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Mercedes-Benz dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
