The short answer

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

Frame members with inadequate strength may reduce the vehicle’s performance in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Daimler Vans USA, LLC (DVUSA) is recalling certain 2024 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 and Sprinter 3500 vehicles.

The longitudinal frame members may not be reinforced properly.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
