Mercedes M-Class Recall, Round Two

Here's a sequel no automaker wants to repeat.



Mercedes-Benz is issuing a recall on 102,954 of its M-Class sports utility vehicles. According to MarketWatch, the crossover's power steering pump can be damaged by a weak clamp on the cooling hose to the power steering fluid cooler. This can result in loss of power steering, and subsequently, control.

This is the second recall.

Our take,?Well, it’s not like power steering always existed. Still, this would be a bad thing to lose on the highway. Get it right this time, Mercedes.
