Note: This problem could also cause the radio and/or interior lights to remain on after exiting the vehicle.
Safety Risk:
A parked vehicle that rolls away could create the risk of an injury or a crash.
Corrective Actions:
To reduce the safety risk, Mercedes-Benz recommends that you should always use the parking brake when you park. Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the driver-side door lock.

Note: If this issue is present in your vehicle, you might notice wet carpets in the driver or passenger footwell and fogged windows.
Safety Risk:
A loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. An airbag system that does not work properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.
