## What is wrong

Daimler Vans USA, LLC \(DVUSA\) is recalling certain model year 2015\-2016 Mercedes\-Benz and Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vans manufactured April 29, 2015, to December 15, 2015.  The affected vehicles have a tire pressure label that incorrectly states a higher maximum load capacity than the vehicle is designed for.


## What can happen

The vehicle may be overloaded if loaded to the incorrect weight shown on the label, possibly resulting in axle or tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

DVUSA will notify owners, and Mercedes\-Benz and Freightliner dealers will replace the incorrect tire pressure label, free of charge.  The recall began March 2016.  Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1\-877\-762\-8267.
