The communication module might have been inadvertently deactivated during a service visit, which could have disabled the Emergency Call (eCall) function.
Safety consequence
A disabled eCall system would prevent a vehicle occupant from contacting emergency services through the call center in an emergency, potentially delaying emergency responders and increasing the risk of injury.
Manufacturer remedy
MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the communication module and activate it, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began March 31, 2021.
