Over-the-air update OTA-5497834
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
Issue Mercedes-Benz AG, the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain subject vehicles, the software for the Mobile Access Unit (“MAU”) control unit may not correspond to the current series production configuration. This OTA software update for the Digital Vehicle Key (“DVK”) function within the MAU will improve battery management by disconnecting the vehicle network when it is not required. In addition, the software update contains general improvements for system stability and DVK device compatibility. Remedy MBUSA will conduct an OTA service campaign. Remote software updates are automatically downloaded and installed in the customer’s vehicle free of charge and do not require a dealer visit.
