No US recalls found for the 2017 Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
On certain vehicles, the reverse gear speed limiter may not meet design specifications and could allow the vehicle to travel at more than 25 km/h in reverse. If a driver were to steer abruptly while travelling above this speed, the vehicle could become unstable and a vehicle rollover may occur, creating a risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the engine control unit software to limit the speed while travelling in reverse.
On certain vehicles, the vacuum hose for the brake booster may not have been manufactured to specification which could cause the interior wall of the hose to delaminate. If this occurs, the vacuum supply of the brake booster may be constrained which could lead to increased braking effort by the driver, resulting in longer stopping distances which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the vacuum hose as necessary.
On certain vehicles equipped with the Distronic Plus radar brake assist, the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) software may malfunction. This could result in increased brake force application being required, which could increase stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the ESP control unit with new software.
