Buying a used 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (VS30)? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 4 owner complaints on file

The 2020 Sprinter (VS30) has 3 recalls addressing blower wiring that may overheat, incorrectly sized front brake discs, and seat airbags that may fail. These campaigns concern electrical heat, braking hardware, and restraint operation rather than informational labels. NHTSA lists 4 unverified owner complaints, with 1 each involving structure, equipment, power train, and vehicle speed control. The complaint record lists 0 crashes, 0 fires, and 0 injuries; these reports do not establish a shared defect.

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. Request proof that the blower-wiring recall was completed.
  3. Verify front brake-disc sizing and recall repair documentation.
  4. Confirm seat-airbag repairs and ask about drivetrain or speed-control faults.
  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.
