## What is wrong

Daimler Vans USA, LLC \(DVUSA\) is recalling certain 2023\-2024 Mercedes\-Benz Sprinter vehicles.  The spring U\-bolts for the rear axle may have reduced strength due to improper heat\-treatment, which can cause the rear axle to shift out of position.


## What can happen

An axle that moves out of position can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will replace the spring U\-bolts, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed August 23, 2024.  Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1\-877\-762\-8267.  DVUSA's number for this recall is VS3FEDERB.
