The fuel feed line might develop a leak or disconnect
of ConsumerAffairs
Mercedes-Benz USA (MBUSA) is recalling 809 model year 2014 E350 and E350 4Matic sedans manufactured June 4, 2014, to July 9, 2014.
The recalled vehicles were built with a fuel feed line that has a single flare fitting instead of a double flare fitting.
If the fuel feed line has the incorrect flare fitting, the connection between the fuel hose and the fuel feed line might develop a leak or may completely disconnect. Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire and if the fuel feed line disconnects, the vehicle would stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will install the correct fuel line, free of charge. This recall is expected to begin in early January 2016.
Owners may contact Mercedes-Benz customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
