What Is a Metris or Sprinter Van Recall?
If you notice a Metris Van or Sprinter Van recall notice, then you’ll get a letter about it in the mail. A recall is when a manufacturer sends out a warning that a certain part of a vehicle model could be malfunctioning. If the potential malfunction is deemed serious enough that a driver could get into an accident driving the vehicle model, then the manufacturer issues a recall warning on that model. The recall notice is essentially the manufacturer telling you that you should have a certain part of your vehicle serviced or replaced.
What Is the NHTSA?
Mercedes-Benz recalls are issued either by Mercedes-Benz or by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The NHTSA is one of the leaders in automotive safety testing and safety reviewing, testing many different makes and models every year. Because they’re one of the most trusted sources for automotive safety, they’re the only other entity besides Mercedes-Benz that can issue a Sprinter Van or Metris Van recall.
