Service campaign NCU - 2025090003
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, the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain subject vehicles, the software for the powertrain control unit (PTCU) does not correspond to the current series production configuration. The possibility exists that a control unit timeout may occur followed by malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) activation. MBUSA will conduct a service campaign. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will update the PTCU software in the affected vehicles.
