## What is wrong

Daimler Vans USA, LLC \(DVUSA\) is recalling certain 2020 Mercedes\-Benz Sprinter and Freightliner Sprinter vehicles.  The connection between the propeller shaft bearing and crossmember may loosen, reducing vehicle control.


## What can happen

Reduced vehicle control increases the risk of a crash.  Additionally, the propeller shaft may damage the fuel tank during a crash, causing a leak and increasing the risk of a fire.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the crossmember as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed April 19, 2024.  Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1\-877\-762\-8267.  DVUSA's number for this recall is VS3QUERTR.
