Mercedes-benz Vans Vito: Check Driver's Airbag Replace If Necessary

Recall Summary Mercedes-Benz is recalling 1,527 Vito vans in the United Kingdom because some may have a defective Takata airbag module installed in the driver's seat. If the airbag deploys in an accident, it may not work properly and could release inflator parts that could injure occupants. Dealers will check the airbag and replace it if necessary.

Vehicles: MERCEDES-BENZ VANS VITO. Units affected: 1,527
Reason
The manufacturer has determined that on affected vehicles a potentially defective airbag module from Takata might have been installed during a driver-airbag replacement.

Remedy: Check the airbag on the affected vehicles and replace it if necessary.
