## What is wrong

Daimler Vans USA, LLC \(DVUSA\) is recalling certain 2018\-2019 Mercedes\-Benz Sprinter and Freightliner Sprinter vehicles.  The spare tire label indicating the maximum speed may have not been affixed to the spare tire.


## What can happen

Without the label, an operator may be unaware of the maximum speed limit of the spare tire and operate the vehicle at a excessive speed, increasing the risk of tire failure and a crash.


## The remedy

DVUSA will notify owners, and Mercedes\-Benz or Freightliner Sprinter dealers will attach the speed limitation label on the spare wheel, free of charge.  The recall began May 15, 2020.  Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1\-877\-762\-8267.  DVUSA's number for this recall is VS3BEGREPP.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
