Buying a used 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (VS30)? Check these 14 recalls first
One recall stands out: steering that can disconnect without warning, the only campaign here carrying a stop-driving instruction. A second critical recall covers fan wiring fire risk. High-severity items include a fender liner rubbing through a brake hose, swivel seat airbag wiring, missing suspension stabilizing parts, wrong rear leaf spring shims, a leaking fuel pump and power steering hose. Only four unverified NHTSA complaints exist, though one cites a crash and one a fire.
Before you buy
- 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.
- Verify in writing that the stop-driving steering recall was completed
- Confirm the fan wiring, brake hose and fuel pump recalls were all closed
- Ask about upfitter work involving swivel seats or suspension parts
- 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.
