ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
A display that is too bright can make it difficult for the driver to see critical safety information, increasing the risk of a crash.
16 safety recall campaigns, 11 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
A display that is too bright can make it difficult for the driver to see critical safety information, increasing the risk of a crash.
A detached partition wall can increase the risk of injury.
Reduced stability increases the risk of a crash. Additionally, the third-row seat mountings can fail, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
An insufficiently bonded window can detach during a crash, and objects secured to an insufficiently bonded interior lashing rail can detach, increasing the risk of injury.
A blank instrument panel will not show critical information, such as vehicle speed, fuel gauge, warning messages, and warning lights, increasing the risk of a crash.
Vehicle rollaway increases the risk of a crash.
Two 2021 MERCEDES BENZ SPRINTER 3500s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
