Service bulletin SC-2022070010

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain MY 2020-2021 GLE-Class and GLS-Class (167 platform) vehicles equipped with Michelin-branded tires, the maximum tire pressure shown on the B-pillar vehicle placard, may be higher than what is permitted by the manufacturer. Michelin states a maximum tire pressure of 300 kPa (44 PSI) for the originally supplied rear tires. The vehicle placard may list tire pressure at 320 kPA (47 psi), however, operation of the tires with a tire pressure as specified has no effect and will not lead to any impairment of the handling characteristics. What We’re Doing MBUSA will conduct a service campaign. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will check and replace the B-Pillar vehicle placard, if necessary.
